Add classic built-in apps to SharePoint

Add built-in apps to SharePoint 

Site Owners can add built-in apps to a SharePoint site by selecting the Gear icon (top right corner) > Add an App. To find the classic built-in apps like calendar, list, document library select the classic experience.

Click the desired app and fill in the Name field. Select Create.

NOTE: The SharePoint app store is disabled. All third-party apps must go through a formal review and risk assessment. Please contact EASI SharePoint Support Team if you are interested in a third-party app.

Troubleshooting Tips

If site owners encounter an error denying access to add an app to their site, they can switch to classic SharePoint to create the apps.

  1. Go to the site and select the gear icon (top right corner) > Site contents.
  2. Select Return to classic SharePoint (bottom left corner) > + add an app.
  3. Search and click on the app icon you want to add.
  4. Enter a Name and select Create.

You'll be directed back to the Site contents where the new app is listed.

To return to the modern SharePoint look, select Exit classic experience (bottom left corner) or close the tab.
