2. Setup NGROK

   • Run ngrok - point to port 3978

   ngrok http -host-header=rewrite 3978

3. Setup for code

4. Setup Manifest for Teams

• This step is specific to Teams.

  • Edit the manifest.json contained in the ./Manifest folder to replace your Microsoft App Id (that was created when you registered your app registration earlier) everywhere you see the place holder string {{Microsoft-App-Id}} (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json)
  • Edit the manifest.json for validDomains and replace {{domain-name}} with base Url of your domain. E.g. if you are using ngrok it would be https://1234.ngrok.io then your domain-name will be 1234.ngrok.io. Note: If you want to test your app across multi hub like: Outlook/Office.com, please update the manifest.json in the tab-product-inspection\nodejs\Manifest_Hub folder with the required values.
  • Zip up the contents of the Manifest folder to create a Manifest.zip or Manifest_Hub folder to create a Manifest_Hub.zip (Make sure that zip file does not contains any subfolder otherwise you will get error while uploading your .zip package)

• Upload the manifest.zip to Teams (in the Apps view click "Upload a custom app")

  • Go to Microsoft Teams. From the lower left corner, select Apps
