- SharePoint environment: Microsoft 365 tenant with SharePoint Online and App Catalog enabled.

- Admin access: Global Administrator or SharePoint Administrator rights are required for tenant-level deployment and for approving API permissions.
- Target site: A modern SharePoint site (communication or team site) designated to host the classifieds and marketplace experience.
3. Access CV Classified on Microsoft AppSource

- Marketplace: https://marketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/product/WA200005834

- In the search bar, type “CV Classified” and locate the app under the SharePoint Store section.

- A banner will appear requesting additional API permission approval. Proceed to Step 2 to grant these permissions.
-
Step 2: Grant API Access

- From the left menu, navigate to Advanced → API access.
- Under Pending requests, locate the following permission requests submitted by CV Classified:

- From the target site, go to Site Contents → New → Page.
- Select a blank page template and give it a clear title such as “Classifieds”, “Employee Marketplace”, or “Community Board”.

-
Step 2: Add the Web Part
