Required API permissions
The following Microsoft Graph API permissions are required:
Scope | Purpose |
User.ReadBasic.All | Read all users' basic profiles for audience targeting. |
GroupMember.Read.All | Read group memberships for audience targeting. |
These permissions are delegated and organisation-wide and require approval by a user with the Global Administrator role after the app has been deployed.
Data storage
Data for Launchpad is stored in SharePoint lists and libraries. These are provisioned from the app as and when required. The lists/libraries provisioned are:
List/library title | Relative URL | Purpose |
Launchpad links | /Lists/WMLP_Links | Storage of the links. |
Launchpad categories | /Lists/WMLP_Categories | Categorisation of the links. |
Launchpad preferences | /Lists/WMLP_Preferences | User preferences and configuration |
Launchpad global preferences |
/Lists/WMLP_GlobalPreferences |
Editor configuration for the optional Launchpad synchronisation feature. |
Launchpad user images | /WMLP_UserImages | A hidden document library for link images uploaded by a user. |
Recommended deployment scope
It is expected that the Launchpad app is made available only on specific areas of your SharePoint tenant as necessary, e.g., a home site or landing site.
Therefore, it is recommended to select the Only enable this app option on deployment (see the Installation instructions page). This means the app is available for Site Owners to manually add to their site.
