Rename the Application

To load more than one instance of the application on a single tenant, you must provide each instance with a unique name and ID. This is required if you receive a "duplicate" error during the import pr

1. Open the App Package:

   • Unzip the SigningHub_App.zip file.

   • Open the manifest.json file in a text editor.

2. Edit the Manifest:

   • Modify the manifest.json file with a new name and ID for the new instance. For example:

     {
       "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/json-schemas/teams/v1.16/MicrosoftTeams.schema.json",
       "manifestVersion": "1.16",
       "version": "1.0.0",
       "id": "new.unique.id",
       "packageName": "com.microsoft.teams.signinghub.new",
       "name": {
         "short": "SigningHub Instance 2"
       },
       ...
     }

   • Generate a new unique ID: The id field must be a valid GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) or UUID (Universally Unique Identifier). You can generate a new ID using an online tool like a UUID generator (Exp: Online UUID Generator)

   • Change the id and packageName to be unique.

   • Update the name to reflect the new application name.

3. Re-package the App:

   • Once the edits are complete, save the file.

   • Zip the contents of the folder to create a new .zip file.

4. Import the New App:

   • Return to the Developer Portal in Teams.

   • Follow the instructions in step 4 to import the newly created .zip file.
