What’s SharePoint Embedded?

SharePoint Embedded is a headless platform that you can use to build and manage content-centric applications using the rich platform services of Microsoft 365. SharePoint Embedded lets you build apps and services integrating the advanced security and compliance features of Microsoft 365 (such as sensitivity, eDiscovery, retention, etc). Think of SharePoint Embedded as a container built on the Graph API that you can extend to your own apps.

To help you get started we recently published a new Visual Code extension for SharePoint Embedded.

The SharePoint Embedded Visual Studio Code extension helps you get started with SharePoint Embedded application development. With the extension, you can:

• Create and configure Azure Entra app registrations for use with SharePoint Embedded
• Create and manage free trial container types
• Create additional guest apps on a free trial container type
• Load one of the sample apps and auto-populate its runtime configuration
• Export Container Type and Azure Entra app settings to a Postman Environment file for use with the SharePoint Embedded Postman Collection
