  • Select “SharePoint Online” and click Next
  • Here you can specify which kind of application you want to create, click on Next
  • Select the Authentication setting, if you are going to use it for your SharePoint farm itself then you can use Certificate and process the steps for creating the public certificate, or else just select the default selection and click Finish
  • Once you click on Finish your app creation part is done and you will be redirected to the default code page of the app. Add some line of sample code over here. Here you will observe then you have two project solution one is ProjectName and other one is ProjectNameWeb
Step-4: Update your web.config and AppManifest.xml file
  • Update web.config with the Client ID and Client Secret Key which we recorded in Step-2.
  • Also add into the section of web.config file if it gives some trust level issue.
  • Update the AppManifest.xml with the Client Id
Step-5: Publish your code.

  • Enter your app Client Id and Client Secret key again here and then click Finish
Once you are done with entering Client Id and Client Secret Key just click on Deploy your web project and follow your traditional way of publishing and publish your code to the domain which you specified at the time of App registration.
After successfully publishing your code to your domain just click on Package the app.
Once you click the Package the app you will be prompted to enter the url of your SharePoint Online where you have registered your app and Client IdClient Id will be populated but please verify once with your original Client Id, if not same then enter your correct Client Id and click Finish
