On this page

1.1 Requirements

  • Microsoft 365 with SharePoint Online (on-premises SharePoint Server is not supported).
  • A modern browser: Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari.
  • A SharePoint Administrator or Global Administrator to upload the package to the tenant App Catalog.
  • Site owner permission on the target site to add the app and publish pages.
  • Recommended: a dedicated site or a Single App Page for immersive estimation sessions.

1.2 Deploy the App (Tenant Administrator)

  • Obtain the production package (sprint-align.sppkg) from Chronodat or your release pipeline.
  • Open the SharePoint Admin Center → More features → Apps → App Catalog and upload the .sppkg file.
  • When prompted, choose to deploy the package and make it available to all sites.
  • Approve the requested Microsoft Graph permissions if you plan to use optional profile photos or presence.

1.3 Add Sprint Align to a Page (Site Owner)

  • On your target site, create a Single App Page (recommended) or edit a modern SharePoint page.
  • Add the Sprint Align web part to the page.
  • Publish the page. Team members open the app from that SharePoint URL, or from a Microsoft Teams tab that points to it.

1.4 First-Time Setup

The first time the app runs, if the required SharePoint lists have not been provisioned, a Complete Setup prompt appears. A site owner runs the setup wizard once to create the lists Sprint Align uses for sessions, votes, decks, and settings.

  • Publish the page before running setup — the wizard does not run while a page is in edit mode.
  • Click Complete Setup and wait until provisioning finishes.
  • Open Settings to set the app name, branding, and who can create sessions.

Additional App Functionality

Subscription, Trial, and Licensing

Sprint Align includes a 14-day free trial per site collection. Site owners manage the subscription from Settings → Subscription. Licensing is per site collection — not per user seat — so everyone on the site can participate.

The setup wizard provisions the SharePoint lists Sprint Align needs on your site.
