I have the exact same issue.

Once I add the <WebApplicationInfo> xml tag, the manifest fails to side load.

This happens for the manifest of my add-in, and also for the manifests of example apps included in this sample repository (both in the Begin and Complete folders): https://github.com/OfficeDev/Office-Add-in-samples/tree/main/Samples/auth/Office-Add-in-NodeJS-SSO

I followed the tutorial for adding SSO via this link here step by step, so I correctly updated the entire <WebApplicationInfo> xml block and the manifest cannot be side loaded.

Please let us know how we can debug and fix this issue.

Thanks!
