Include a web part on a webpage in the add-in web

Important

The SharePoint Add-In model in SharePoint Online has been deprecated as of November 27th 2023, checkout the full retirement announcement to learn more.

Deprecation means that the feature will not get any new investments, but it's still supported. SharePoint add-in model is retired fully on April 2nd, 2026 and is no longer available after that time. Primary replacement technology for the SharePoint add-in model is SharePoint Framework (SPFx) which continues to be supported also in future.

You can include an out-of-the-box web part on a page in the add-in web of a SharePoint Add-in, but it is important that you do this in a way that won't cause problems if you ever need to update the add-in.

For a code sample that illustrates the guidance of this topic, see OfficeDev/Core.WebPartOnAppWebPage.

Add a web part to a page

  1. Create a SharePoint-hosted SharePoint Add-in project in Visual Studio. For details, see Get started creating SharePoint-hosted SharePoint Add-ins.

  2. Open the .aspx file to which you want to add a web part. This topic uses Default.aspx as an example.

  3. Add a WebPartZone to the <asp:Content> element where you want the web part with markup. Typically, you want to add it to the <asp:Content> whose ContentPlaceHolderId is PlaceHolderMain. The following is an example.

      <asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderId="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server">
        <WebPartPages:WebPartZone runat="server" FrameType="TitleBarOnly"
          ID="HomePage1" Title="loc:full" />
      </asp:Content>
    

    Warning

    It is possible to add a web part element, such as <WebPartPages:XsltListViewWebPart> as a child of the WebPartZone. But this is generally a bad practice in a SharePoint Add-in. If the add-in ever needs to be updated, a web part element inserted in the .aspx file can cause the update to fail in some scenarios with the message "A web part with this ID has already been added to this page." We recommend that you add web parts to the elements manifest for the page as described later in this procedure.

  4. Open the element manifest file for the page. This is usually called elements.xml and is located in the same project folder as the .aspx file.

  5. In the File element for the page, add a child AllUsersWebPart element, and set its WebPartZoneID to the value of the web part zone that you created on the page, as this example shows.

      <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
        <Module Name="Pages">
          <File Path="Pages\Default.aspx" Url="Pages/Default.aspx" ReplaceContent="TRUE" >
            <AllUsersWebPart WebPartZoneID="HomePage1" WebPartOrder="1">
    
            </AllUsersWebPart>
          </File>
        </Module>
      </Elements>
    
  6. Add a CDATA element as a child of the AllUsersWebPart, and then add a webParts element as a child of the CDATA, as shown in this example.

      <AllUsersWebPart WebPartZoneID="HomePage1" WebPartOrder="1">
        <![CDATA[
          <webParts>
    
          </webParts>
        ]]>
      </AllUsersWebPart>
    
  7. Add webPart markup as a child of the webParts element. The following is an example that adds an XsltListViewWebPart. It assumes that a custom list called "Test List" is part of the same add-in project. For information about how to add a custom list to an add-in web, see Create a provider-hosted add-in that includes a custom SharePoint list and content type.

    Note

    Note that the web part does not have an ID property. It is a best practice to include an explicit ID for the web part only in the two cases where it is really required: The web part is being added to a SharePoint wiki page. The web part is one of two or more web parts that are connected.

      <webParts>
      <webPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v3">
        <metaData>
          <type name="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.XsltListViewWebPart,
                      Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
                      PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" />
        </metaData>
        <data>
          <properties>
            <property name="ListUrl">Lists/{TestList}</property>
            <property name="IsIncluded">True</property>
            <property name="NoDefaultStyle">True</property>
            <property name="Title">{Test List}</property>
            <property name="PageType">PAGE_NORMALVIEW</property>
            <property name="Default">False</property>
            <property name="ViewContentTypeId">0x</property>
          </properties>
        </data>
      </webPart>
    </webParts>
    
  8. Select F5 to debug the add-in. You should see the web part on the page.
