Microsoft has recently announced that it will be retiring the SharePoint Add-In extensibility model and the public marketplace for SharePoint Add-Ins by April 2nd, 2026. This means that SharePoint Add-Ins will stop working for new and existing tenants in Microsoft 365, including Government Clouds and Department of Defense. This also applies to Project Online, which is an extension of SharePoint Online.
SharePoint Add-Ins are custom solutions that extend the functionality of SharePoint, either by running inside SharePoint (SharePoint hosted Add-Ins) or outside of SharePoint (provider hosted Add-Ins). Microsoft recommends migrating SharePoint Add-Ins to SharePoint Framework based solutions or alternative software as a service platforms, such as Microsoft Azure, that can integrate with SharePoint using Microsoft Entra ID for authentication.
