UV Lifecycle Manager documentation

Overview

Owner validation, renew and archive candidates. Default never deletes a site automatically.

For: Admins of inactive sites.

Features

  • Inactive sites

    Candidates with owners.

  • Never silent delete

    Preview, confirm, audit.

Requirements

  • SharePoint Online (Microsoft 365)
  • Tenant app catalog
  • SPFx 1.18+
  • Node 18 LTS / 22 LTS for custom builds
  • License key from Account → License keys

Installation

  1. After purchase or trial, download the signed uv-lifecycle-manager.sppkg package from Account → Files / UV Apps catalog.
  2. Upload the package to the tenant app catalog (SharePoint admin → More features → Apps).
  3. Enable the app for the whole tenant or selected site collections.
  4. If Entra asks for consent, approve only the permissions listed on the product page.
  5. Open a site and add the web part (or open the full-page app). The app checks for a purchased license or an active trial for this tenant.
  6. Sites.Read.All.

How to use

  1. Open the page signed in with a work account from this Microsoft 365 tenant.
  2. The app asks the license server whether this tenant has a purchase or an active trial — no key is required.
  3. If nothing is found, paid features stay locked. Clock, Banner, Quick Links and Profile Card still run in Free mode.
  4. A product key from Account → License keys is only a fallback when silent activation fails.
  5. Review candidates.
  6. Ask owners to renew. Archive only with a policy.

Configuration

  • Inactivity days

Troubleshooting

  • No owners: escalate, do not delete.

Licensing

The app checks this tenant for a purchased license or an active trial and unlocks automatically. Sign in with a work mailbox on a verified domain of the Microsoft 365 tenant. See the licensing guide.
