Visual Studio 2015 - Microsoft Developer account app list not retrieved - visual-studio

I've developed a cordova app and I wanted to publish it to the Windows Store. A Windows Developer Account (company account) has been bought and associated with my Microsoft Work Account, and I can login via the browser and reserve the app name, start a submission, etc.
To build the .appxupload file required by Windows Store, I was referring the third part of Packaging UWP apps document. However, when I open the Create App Package option, at the "Select an app name" screen, the app name I had reserved via the browser is not displayed, nor is it reserving a new app name. It always displays a network error, as seen in this screenshot.
An unexpected network error has occurred. The app list cannot be refreshed. Please retry by pressing the Refresh button.
Is there anything else I have to do to connect the account to my VS?
PS: The logged in accounts (in VS, and the browser dev account) are the same, I've checked multiple times. There is no issue with my LAN connection, I'm using the same connection everywhere with no problems.

I can't add the bot in my MSTeam application

I'm using visual studio 2019 for creating a bot application and I have run it successfully that I added the Bot in Microsoft Team using botframework.com and I was downloaded the MSTeam application and installed but it doesn't show my Bot app in msTeam Application
MSTeam channel creation in botframework:
MSTeam Application:
I have only 3 option such as activity, chats, calendar on the left panel
You Need to get access from admin account for app store to Microsoft teams.
In Office 365 admin center, in settings for Microsoft Teams. Turn on the option "Allow external apps in Microsoft Teams". So that you can view app studio in your Teams.
I don't have experience with botframework.com, but I'm assuming the behavior is going to be the same as when I manage bots through Azure. Turning on the channel itself isn't sufficient to add the bot to teams. There are (at least) two methods you can use to add the bot:
Copy the bot's Microsoft App Id and enter it into the To: field of a Teams chat. The bot should come up and you should be able to chat with it if the channel was set up correctly. It is not a good idea to share this app ID with others. I'd use this only for your own personal testing.
Create a Teams app manifest and load the app into Teams. There are a number of ways to create a manifest, but the easiest is to use the "App Studio" app from the Teams app store.
If you go the Teams app route, you can either sideload the app (which again, Teams App Studio makes that process easy but you can also Upload a custom app from the app store tab) or you can submit to your company app store. If you do not have a company app store, you'll need to sideload until you are ready to submit to the Microsoft App Store (if that is your end goal).

The app configuration in App Studio does not exist for the id 4f2c0a7d-6ab9-4594-b2b6-bec7ccd7d0e6 in the organization you are currently logged into

This question is regarding the microsoft team app.
When i try to run the app created by other developers using visual studio microsfot team tool kit,
i get following error.
The app configuration in App Studio does not exist for the id 4f2c0a7d-6ab9-4594-b2b6-bec7ccd7d0e6 in the organization you are currently logged into.
I have logged into the teams and also uploaded the app package and allowed it for all teams.
Interestingly the app id in the admins.teams.microsoft.com is always different then the one in the client.

Unable to login through custom app (tabs) built in Microsoft teams app studio

We built a custom application in App Studio in Microsoft Teams for organisation needs. Basically, we made a tab which displays a website. This website auth with login.microsoftonline.com and then redirect to our website on success.
When we are accessing the website in the browser or teams (Web version) we are able to see the login screen and we are able to login and continue as usual. (Please find the attached screenshot below for reference)
Web Version
Whereas, when we are trying to access the same from Microsoft Teams desktop, it is displaying a empty page instead of login page. (Please find the attached screenshot below for reference)
Microsoft Teams App Tab
We even added *.microsoftlogin.com as a valid domain while creating custom app in app studio. Is there anyway we can show the login to make it work.
Thank you

Visual Studio hangs when creating Azure App Service

I'm trying to follow a tutorial on Azure deployment. I'm stuck on one of the first steps creating the App Service. It seams that the form tries to find all App Service Plans but can't, so all of Visual Studio hangs. I had to kill it with Task Manager. Any clues on how I can fix this? Do I need to create something at the Azure management console?
Had the same issue, turned out I hadn't installed Azure SDK, you'd think there would be some kind of error message, but no. Installing the SDK fixed issue
I did the steps below to resolve the issue.
Login to your Azure account
Manually create an app service (use any dummy app service name). The service plan and resource group will be created while you're creating this app service
Once you see the dummy app service created on your Azure dashboard (it will take around 1-2 minutes), open your visual studio from your pc, create your web project and check api service
--- This time, the service plan and resource group will be brought in.---
Click "Create" to create your "real" web/api project in Azure
Now you can remove the dummy service from Azure
I had the same problem. It started to work after I logged into the Azure Dashboard and manually created an App Services Web App.
Ran into the same issue a few days ago and here is how I got it working.
I had yet to create any App Services in the Azure account I had tied to Visual Studio and when I got to the Create App Service window you posted, Visual Studio would freeze.
I logged into the Azure Portal, created an App Service with a different name than the project. Once it was created, I then deleted the newly created App Service.
After doing this had no problem freezing in Visual Studio. The fix appears to be to create at least one App Service in portal before it works in VS.
I did two things at once, not sure which one got through the lock up.
1) In Visual Studio, went to File -> Account Settings then under the "All Accounts" section of the Account Settings window I reentered my credentials for the Azure account I had linked the project to. This account had a notification raised saying "We need to refresh the credentials for this account."
2) As others have said, I created a new Web App. I'm not sure this was the problem, however - I had previously created a couple other web apps and these resources were still present in my dashboard.
I have to agree with the above comments, too - the error messages provided for this are really, really poor.
Check that there are no characters that it will not accept. For instance an underscore '_'
Azure built a dummy name for me to use including an underscore which it does not accept. It was trial and error for me to find this where a simple warning would have saved lots of time.
Login to Azure Portal and create necessary resources. VS screens do not seem to work properly.
I created Api App on azure portal and my problem solved.
Same problem, however I have 3 Azure subscriptions, but even after making sure all of'em has at least one App Service it still hangs on this step. No other option than to not check the option to host.
Updating Azure SDK on VS2015 fix the problem in my case

Does creating developer account on Windows Dev Centre during Targeted App Distribution provides with Enterprise Sideload key?

We have implemented a Windows 8 app. We tested the app by sideloading on both Windows 8.1 Pro and Enterprise. The app is working as expected when both the machines are connected to the domain. If both the machines are out of the domain, the app does not work and we receive the following error ‘This app can’t open. There’s a problem with app. Contact your system administrator about repairing or reinstalling it’. Also, in the event log the following error was displayed ‘Activation of the app 589f3680-7094-4066-92ee-75cd86b75bc1_5gyrq6psz227t!App for the Windows. Launch contract was blocked with error 0x80073CFC because its package is in state: Modified‘. We checked through on your sites and it is mentioned that Enterprise Sideloading key is mandatory for the app to work if the machine is not connected to the domain.
If we publish the app on Windows Store using ‘Targeted App Distribution’ method, do we still need to worry about the Enterprise Sideloading key or will the key be available when we will create a developer account on the Windows Center? Let us know.
Let us know if we are missing anything. Also, it will be helpful if you suggest any appropriate way as we need the Windows app to work without being connected to the domain.
Thanks
You could sideload the app if you have a developer license registered on the target machine. You can get a developer license via Visual Studio or with this powershell command:
Get-WindowsDeveloperLicense
However the developer license needs to be renewed every month.
See my answer here how to sideload an app:
sideload windows 8 apps to multiple devices?
