🤖 AI-Generated Preliminary Analysis:

To address the issue with uninstalling the application package by manifest id, follow these steps to troubleshoot and resolve the problem:

1. Verify Manifest ID: Ensure that the manifestId you are using is correct and matches the "id" property in your JSON manifest file. You can open the appPackage.zip and inspect the manifest file to confirm this.

2. Confirm Uninstall Command: Double-check the command syntax you are using to uninstall the app. Based on the error description, your command should look like this:

   teamsapp uninstall --manifest-id <manifestId> --options m365-app

3. Check for Errors in Command Execution: Look at the error message displayed when you attempt to uninstall the app. This might give you more insight into what is going wrong.

4. Use a JSON Validator: Ensure that your JSON manifest file is correctly formatted. Malformed JSON can sometimes cause issues with commands that rely on the manifest file. Use a JSON validator tool to check for syntax errors.

5. Refer to Documentation: As mentioned in your question, refer to the official documentation to ensure you are following the correct steps for sideloading and uninstalling the app.

6. Update Teams Toolkit: Ensure that you are using the latest version of the Teams Toolkit. Sometimes issues are resolved in newer versions, so updating might help.

Example Steps for Troubleshooting

1. Inspect the JSON Manifest:

   {
     "id": "your-manifest-id",
     // other properties
   }

   Make sure the "id" property matches the manifestId you are using in the uninstall command.

2. Run the Uninstall Command:

   teamsapp uninstall --manifest-id your-manifest-id --options m365-app

If the problem persists after following these steps, consider providing more details about the error message you are receiving. This will help in diagnosing the issue more precisely.

For additional support, you can also refer to related issues on GitHub, such as:

• Issue #7556 regarding JSON manifest parsing errors.
• Issue #7118 for issues related to JSON formatting.

By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue with uninstalling the application package by manifest id.

@tranhuyentran23 - We tested this at our end, and we are able to run the uninstall command successfully. Could you please confirm that you have used correct manifest id only?

[tranhuyentran23]

Hi @Meghana-MSFT , I tried with a sample zip package that using schema:
https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/teams/vDevPreview/MicrosoftTeams.schema.json
manifestVersion: devPreview
manifest id: e923e00f-b3e3-123d-b81e-de9c3a31718c

Could you help to take a look at my sample json that I was using, and let me know if I missed any config. Thanks!
