Configure the SharePoint App Catalog<\/h2>\n
You need an App Catalog configured in your farm so that you can deploy the SPFx apps into it.<\/p>\n
- \n
- Open the SharePoint 2019 Central Administration site<\/li>\n
- From the left menu, click “Apps”<\/li>\n
- Under App Management click “Manage App Catalog”<\/li>\n
- On the Manage App Catalog site, please ensure you have selected the web application where you will want to install the App Catalog on the top right corner<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
IMPORTANT<\/strong> – The web application you choose needs to be the same web application containing the sites where you will want to deploy your SPFx App.<\/p>\n
- \n
- If you can see a section under “Site Url” (see screenshot below), it means that you already have an Application Catalog installed and can proceed to the next section<\/a>.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

- Click “Ok”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The SharePoint App Catalog is now configured and you can move to the next section below.<\/p>\n
Configure and enable the App Management Service<\/h2>\n
The App Management Service must be running on your farm.<\/p>\n
- \n
- To check if the App Management Service is already running in your farm navigate to “Central Admin” > “Application Management” > “Manage Service Applications” (under Service Applications) and check if the “App Management Service” is listed and in the running status (see screenshot below):<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-4.png?_t=1634912255\" "\\"Image")
<\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- If the “App Management Service Application” and “App Management Service Application Proxy” are listed with the status of “Started”, then proceed to the next section<\/a>.<\/strong><\/li>\n
- To add a new App Management Service, click “New” and then “App Management Service”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-5.png?_t=1634912255\" "\\"Image")

<\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- Under Application Pool, choose “SharePoint Web Services Default” from the “Use existing application pool list”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
IMPORTANT<\/strong> – The “SharePoint Web Services Default” is an application pool that is automatically created when you run the SharePoint Central Configuration Administration Wizard. If you cannot see that Application Pool available then click on “Create a New Application Pool” instead and provide a new name and a service account for your application pool.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- Click “Ok”<\/li>\n
- Once created, you should see the App Management Service and its proxy listed in the Manage Service Applications Page (“Application Management” > “Manage Service Applications” (under Service Applications))<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-8.png?_t=1634912637\" "\\"Image")
<\/span><\/p>\nConfigure and enable Subscription Settings Service<\/h2>\n
The Subscription Settings Service needs to be running on your farm.<\/p>\n
- \n
- To check if the Subscription Settings Service is already running in your farm, navigate to “Central Admin” > “Application Management” > “Manage Service Applications” (under Service Applications) and check if the “Subscriptions Settings Service Application” is listed and in the running status (see screenshot below):<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-9.png?_t=1634912637\" "\\"Image")
<\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- If the “Subscription Settings Service Application” and respective proxy are listed with the status of “Started”, then you do not need to proceed with the rest of instructions in this section.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
- to configure the Subscription Settings Service navigate to “Central Administration” > “System Settings” > “Manage services in this farm”<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-10.png?_t=1634913717\" "\\"Image")
<\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- Click on “Enable Auto Provision” for Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Subscription Settings Service<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-11.png?_t=1634912757\" "\\"Image")
<\/span><\/p>\nNext we need to create the Subscription Settings Service using PowerShell. <\/p>\n
- \n
- Open the SharePoint Management Shell as administrator<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-12.png?_t=1634912758\" "\\"Image")
<\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- Run the following 2 commands in PowerShell:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
$sa = New-SPSubscriptionSettingsServiceApplication -ApplicationPool ‘SharePoint Web Services Default’ -Name ‘Subscriptions Settings Service Application’ -DatabaseName ‘Subscription’ New-SPSubscriptionSettingsServiceApplicationProxy -ServiceApplication $sa <\/p>\n
NOTE:<\/strong> The name of the Application Pool used must match an already existing application pool. In the example above we are using the “SharePoint Web Services Default” Application Pool that is normally created by the Central Administration Setup Wizard.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-13.png?_t=1634912759\" "\\"Image")
<\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- To check that the service was created successfully navigate to “Central Admin” > “Application Management” > “Manage Service Applications” (under Service Applications) and check if the “Subscriptions Settings Service Application” is listed and in the running status (see screenshot below):<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Image-14.png?_t=1634912760\" "\\"Image")
<\/a><\/span><\/p>\nConfigure App Url for Apps<\/h2>\n
The last step we need to take is to ensure that the App Url for apps is configured.<\/p>\n
- Open the SharePoint 2019 Central Administration site<\/li>\n
- From the left menu, click “Apps”<\/li>\n
- Under App Management click “Configure App Urls”<\/li>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/SP2019-Configure-app-urls-1.png?_t=1650899878\" "\\"SP2019")
<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n- \n
- On the “Configure App Urls page”, please ensure you provide the “App domain” and the “App prefix”:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.collaboris.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/SP2019-Configure-app-urls-2-1.png?_t=1650899904\" "\\"SP2019")
<\/a><\/span><\/p>\nPlease Note:<\/h4>\n
These settings are required to ensure you can add apps to your site but they are never used by DocRead. Because of this you do not need to configure the domain you use here in DNS.<\/p>\n
You should now be able to add SPFX apps to SharePoint.<\/p>\n
How to add an SPFx application to the App Catalog<\/h2>\n
