Using SharePoint on Microsoft Office 365 and Azure (In the Cloud)

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) must be configured for WebFOCUS in order to use SharePoint in the cloud.

Note: The following procedure uses Microsoft Office 365 as an example, but the general steps would also apply in a Microsoft Azure environment.

1. Sign in to Office 365 with your SharePoint online account.
2. From the SharePoint Admin Center (the tile with A and Admin on it), select Apps from the left pane, and then click App Catalog.
3. Select Create a new app catalog site and then click Ok.
4. On the Create App Catalog Site Collection page, enter the required information, and then click Ok.
5. Navigate to the App Catalog site within the Admin Center, click Apps, and then click App Catalog.
6. On the home page of the App Catalog site, select the tile labeled Distribute apps for SharePoint, and click new app.
7. Navigate and select the folder that contains the app you wish to upload, and then click Open.
8. In the Add a document dialog box, add any optional comments about this version of the app, and then click Ok.
9. Ensure that the Enabled check box is selected so that users are able to add this app to their sites.
10. Click Save.
11. On the App Catalog site, pre-register the WebFOCUS app using:

    http://sharepointServer/sites/testSite/_layouts/15/appregnew.aspx

12. On the App Catalog site, click Settings and then click Add an App.
13. Select the app you want to add, and when you are prompted, select Trust it.
14. Create your new site collection.
15. Using your browser, go to the URL of the new site collection and select Add an App from the Settings menu.
16. Select the WebFOCUS app to add it to the new site.

    Once it is installed, you can create pages and use App Part on the ribbon to add the WebFOCUS App Parts.

17. In the Edit web part pane, ensure to specify an HTTPS URL to WebFOCUS and that your WebFOCUS environment is configured for SSL.
