Add App to Site

Minimum SharePoint site permissions required: Site Collection Administrator


🔑 Why This Permission Is Needed

When creating Site Columns in a modern Team Site (associated with a Microsoft 365 Group), you must explicitly be a Site Collection Administrator.
This ensures that crawled and managed properties appear correctly in the search schema.

🚀 Add Compliance Tracker 365 to a Site

Once Compliance Tracker 365 has been deployed to an App Catalog, you can add it to a specific site:

  1. Navigate to the Site Contents page of the site.

  2. Click the New menu at the top of the page and select App.

  3. Locate Compliance Tracker 365 in the list of available apps.

  4. Click Add.

    • After a short delay, a confirmation message will appear at the top of the page.

    • The button will change to Added.


🛠️ Troubleshooting

  • If you cannot see the Compliance Tracker 365 app:
    • Confirm it has been deployed to either the site collection’s App Catalog or the tenant App Catalog.
  • Verify that the required lists have been created in the site collection before navigating to any page to configure the app.

⚙️ Final Configuration

  1. Return to the Home page to complete setup.
  2. Once the app is fully deployed, it will redirect to the Management page.
  3. For new SharePoint sites, a Wait message may appear while the site is indexed by search.
    • During this time, you can begin creating targeting Terms and deploy the CT365 Management solution.

✅ After indexing completes, Compliance Tracker 365 will be ready for configuration and use.
