O365 and OneDrive with ADAL, Microsoft Graph API & Office Add-In

This post is a contribution from Manish Joshi, an engineer with the SharePoint Developer Support team

This blog demonstrates creating an Office add-in and retrieving data from SharePoint Online and One Drive within the add-in. The add-in uses ADAL.js for authentication and retrieving access token. In addition it uses Graph API and SharePoint REST API for accessing data from One Drive and SharePoint Online.

Create new Azure Web app

  • Browse to Azure Portal https://portal.azure.com.
  • Click on App Services
  • Click  Add-> Web Apps-> Click Create
  • Set a unique App name. Example : o365officeaddin.
  • Set Resource Group: Either Create New or Select Existing. Click on Create.
  • Browse back to app services to seethe newly created web app.
  • Click on the newly created web app ->  Click Get publish profile from the menu in right section.
  • Click Save File-> The file will be saved in "C:\Users\<<username>>\Downloads" folder with name o365officeaddin.PublishSettings

 

Register new Azure App

  • Click on Azure Active Directory-> Click Switch directory
  • Select your corporate Directory. In my case it’s Contoso.
  • Click App registrations-> Click New application registration
  • Enter Name: o365officeaddin
  • Select Application type: Web App/ API
  • Enter Sign-on URL as the url of the newly created azure web app. Example : https://o365officeaddin.azurewebsites.net/Home.html
  • Click on Azure Active Directory-> Click App registrations-> Click o365officeadin-> Click Properties
  • Set App ID URI: https://yourO365tenant.onmicrosoft.com/o365officeaddin. Click Save.
  • Edit the reply Urls and add the url of your web app with an additional query string “?et=”
    Example -: https://yourO365tenant.onmicrosoft.com/o365officeaddin/Home.html?et=
    Note the reply urls are cases sensitive and you may get an error if there is a case mismatch.
  • Make a note of "Application Id" we will use this later in javascript code for the clientId.
  • Click Manifest-> Update value for “oauth2AllowImplicitFlow” to "true". Click Save

  • In Home.html Insert following code just after <body>. In the below code update the sharePointTenantName with your tenant name and the clientId with the Application Id we copied in the earlier steps.

     <div id="content-header">
            <strong><span class='app-user navbar-text'></span></strong>

Installing the Add-in to App Catalog

We can make the add-in available globally instead of having to upload the manifest.xml file everytime. When we packaged the add-in in the earlier step the .app file for the add-in was also generated at the path "bin\Debug\app.publish".  Follow the below steps to make this add-in available globally across your tenant without requiring to upload the manifest.xml file every time.

  • Browse to the app catalog site collection in your tenant
  • Go to Apps for SharePoint
  • Upload the office365addin.app file from the location "bin\Debug\app.publish"
  • Install the add-in in the app catalog site collection by going to Site Actions -> Add an App
  • One the app is installed Browse to document library in any site collection in your tenant and add or edit a word document in browser.
  • Click on "Insert" -> "Office Add-ins" command in the ribbon . You should be able to see your office add-in under My Organization tab
