GUID simpleType (SharePoint Add-in Manifest)

Applies to: SharePoint Add-ins | SharePoint Foundation 2013 | SharePoint Server 2013

A Guid in the form of XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX. It may be surrounded by {}s.

Note

The string app appears as part of or all of some element, attribute, and file names because SharePoint Add-ins were originally called "apps for SharePoint." To ensure backward compatibility, the schemas have not been changed.
