  • It is important that you already completed updating the ShortPoint SPFx by following the Update Step 2: Update ShortPoint SPFx on a SharePoint Site (New Upgrade) as a prerequisite for this article.

Step 1: Check ShortPoint Dashboard status


If you are completing the series of this tutorial, the last step of the Update Step 2: Update ShortPoint SPFx on a SharePoint Site (New Upgrade) should show a greyed out ShortPoint SPFx in update mode. After waiting for a couple of seconds and after refreshing the page, this is how the app should look like:

Once you see that the app is not greyed out, it means that it is ready to get the update. Please proceed with clicking the ShortPoint Dashboard.
