SharePoint Site Collection App Catalog not showing up
I've been trying to enable the local app catalog on my Sharepoint site. I've tried the following: Using SPO Powershell to enable the app catalog Using SPO Powershell the enable custom scripting and then enable the app catalog Using PnP Powershell to enable app catalog Checked the "Classic" view of the site contents. Waited over 2 hours in case there was a propagation issue. Verified that the site I am trying to enable the local catalog for is on the list of sites here: https://appcatalogurl/Lists/SiteCollectionAppCatalogs/AllItems.aspx The Powershell runs fine, and the site appears to have enabled the app catalog as it is on the list of sites that have it enabled, however the GUI does not show me the "Apps for SharePoint" item in the site contents of the site. I'm wondering if there is a setting in my tenant or my site that is causing this? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
How do I update an app in the app catalog that is checked out by a user who is no longer in AD
The error I get is: "The file customlearning.sppkg has been checked out by i:0#.f|membership|****@.org.uk on 6/16/2020 9:42 AM" Asterisks denote personal info. The user left the organisation and had their AD profile deleted months ago. The file can't be deleted or overwritten in the library. When I check the files which aren't currently checked in on library settings, the section is empty SharePoint Online I have Global Admin priveleges and I own the library where the apps are stored/deployed I have had a chat with a Sharepoint Engineer from Microsoft who said they would get back to me, but they pointed me in the direction of GitHub for help, who in turn pointed me in the direction of TechCommunity for help.
'User cannot be found' during new app catalog creation
Hello, I'm trying to create my first app catalog in a Sharepoint online tenant following this kb: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/use-app-catalog After selected the first option and 'OK', I receive the error "User cannot be found". I'm logged in as tenant administrator and there are already sites created in it (modern and classic). What am I wrong? Thanks
SPFX solution in site collection app catalog - breaks site for external user
SPFX solutions deployed to the site collection scoped app catalog (not the tenant app catalog) do not seem to work for external/guest users. In the case of an application customizer a blank page is displayed (effectively breaking the entire site), and in the case of a webpart the the component is not rendered on the page. The same SPFX solution works for non-external users OR if deployed to the tenant scoped app catalog. This affects modern sites but does not seem to affect modern pages on classic sites. There is a workaround described at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/SharePoint-Developer/Site-Collection-App-Catalog-External-Users/m-p/149694 to grant external users read access to the tenant scoped app catalog, but this grants external users permissions that we would prefer to avoid. A screenshot of the issue on a modern team site is shown below - note there seems to be an issue returning the HTML for the page as the response is truncated partway through the HTML Head tag: Has anyone else faced this issue and/or is there a resolution for this issue without having to grant external users access to the tenant app catalog?
