Deploy SharePoint Add-In as App Part


In previous post ‘SharePoint hosted Add-In : Read list data : JSOM’, we saw how to create SharePoint hosted Add-In to read data from SharePoint. In this post, we will see how to deploy SharePoint Add-In as App Part. So that, this Add-In can be added to any page in SharePoint.
Step 1- Add new Client Web Part to your Add -In project.


Step 2- Create a new page or you can also use existing Default.aspx page of Add-In for client web part content.


Step 3- Create a blog subsite ‘Vendor’. In App part, we will read data from this blog posts.


Step 4- Open Client web part Element.xml file and update Title and Description.


Step 5- Deploy your Add-In


Step 6- Add your App Part from Apps category as shown below.


Step 7- Now you can see your Add-In as App part in your SharePoint sites page.
