(SharePoint Add-in Manifest)

Applies to: SharePoint Add-ins | SharePoint Foundation 2013 | SharePoint Server 2013

Identifies a SharePoint Feature or capability that the add-in depends on, or an autohosted component that is included in the app. The SharePoint Add-ins installation infrastructure checks to see if the Feature or capability is present and activated. If it is not, installation of the app is blocked. If the element identifies an autohosted component, the infrastructure deploys the component.

Note

The string app appears as part of or all of some element, attribute, and file names because SharePoint Add-ins were originally called "apps for SharePoint." To ensure backward compatibility, the schemas have not been changed.
