Hi,
I'm testing developing provided add-in in SharePoint Online. I setup the service bus for remote debugging and I wanted to test the AppInstalled event :
- My web service is hosted on azure : https://xxxx-providerhostedapp.azurewebsites.net/Services/AppEventReceiver.svc
It works fine
- In my manifest.xml, I have these parameters
<StartPage>https://xxxx-providerhostedapp.azurewebsites.net/Pages/Default.aspx?{StandardTokens}</StartPage>
<InstalledEventEndpoint>~remoteAppUrl/Services/AppEventReceiver.svc</InstalledEventEndpoint>
When I do a F5 and make a breakpoint to my install event, my clientcontext is null. So nothing was executed in my function but the debugging fires.
private void HandleAppInstalled(SPRemoteEventProperties properties)
{
using (ClientContext clientContext =
TokenHelper.CreateAppEventClientContext(properties, false))
{
if (clientContext != null)
{
new RemoteEventReceiverManager().AssociateRemoteEventsToHostWeb(clientContext);
}
}
}
- After that, I changed the xml in my manfest file :
<Properties>
<Title>Contoso.EventReceivers</Title>
<StartPage>https://xxxx-providerhostedapp.azurewebsites.net/Pages/Default.aspx?{StandardTokens}</StartPage>
<InstalledEventEndpoint>https://xxxx-providerhostedapp.azurewebsites.net/Services/AppEventReceiver.svc</InstalledEventEndpoint>
<UninstallingEventEndpoint>https://xxxx-providerhostedapp.azurewebsites.net/Services/AppEventReceiver.svc</UninstallingEventEndpoint>
</Properties>
With this configuration, everything works fine. My context is loaded perfectly but I can't debug my program with F5.
The only way to debug my event is to load manuall my app file in the SharePoint catalog and attach debugger azure web site.
I want to understand the difference between deploying app with F5 and manually. Should I use token ~remoteAppUrl or use explicit url ?
The localhost adresses are not reachable when I'm debugging. In this cas, the instances in IIS Express are not useful.
Do you have any ideas ?
Cordially.
