  • The line starts with -> instead of a proper blockquote marker. Replace -> with > to maintain correct Markdown blockquote formatting.
-> When the app package that contains the unified manifest is deployed in [AppSource](https://appsource.microsoft.com/) or the [Microsoft 365 Admin Center](../publish/publish.md) then an add-in only manifest is generated from the unified manifest and stored.
