SharePoint Embedded — Full Setup

Workflow

Run each script in order. State passes via .env.spe.

Setup Progress:
- [ ] Stage 1 — 01-auth.ps1               -> Azure CLI login
- [ ] Stage 2 — 02-app.ps1                -> Step 2.1: Entra app creation
                                            -> Step 2.2: API permissions
- [ ] Stage 3 — 03-token.ps1              -> Device code auth (user interaction)
- [ ] Stage 4 — 04-container-type.ps1     -> Step 4.1: Container type creation
                                            -> Step 4.2: Tenant registration
- [ ] Stage 5 — 05-container.ps1          -> Step 5.1: Container creation & activation
                                            -> Step 5.2: Proof file + preview link

Output format

Every script ends with a structured block:

=== RESULT ===
Status: OK
Key: Value
View App: https://portal.azure.com/...
=== END ===

Present every line from the RESULT block as a markdown table. Do not drop URL lines.

Stage-specific notes

Stage 3 — 03-token.ps1 opens a browser for interactive sign-in (auth code + PKCE). If the browser cannot open, it falls back to device code flow and prints ACTION REQUIRED: with a URL and code. Use -UseDeviceCode to force device code flow. If .spe-token exists and is valid, this step completes instantly.

Stage 5 — 05-container.ps1 may take 30–60s due to propagation retries (handled automatically). After it finishes, read .env.spe and include PREVIEW_URL in the summary.

Stage 6 — 06-cleanup.ps1 deletes the container type and app. Only run if the user asks. The script prompts for Y/N confirmation before proceeding.

Customization

.\02-app.ps1 -AppDisplayName "Contoso Legal App"
.\04-container-type.ps1 -ContainerTypeName "Legal Cases" -BillingClassification "trial"
.\05-container.ps1 -ContainerName "Sample Case"

Recovery

All scripts are idempotent. Re-run any failed script. Delete .env.spe to start fresh.
