Cli-microsoft365: o365 spo app remove doesn't remove entries from Client Side Component Manifests list

[phillipharding]

When manually deleting a solution package from the tenant app catalog (for a webparts solution) the webparts manifests are also automatically removed from the _Client Side Component Manifests_ list.

However, when using

o365 spo app retract --id <package id> --confirm

and

o365 spo app remove --id <package id> --confirm

to remove the solution package, the webpart manifests are left in the _Client Side Component Manifests_ list.

This means that the webparts are still available in the webpart gallery of sites which the solution package has been installed in.

Thank you for reporting this issue and bringing it to our attention. We will investigate...

@phillipharding since we're not doing anything specific in that regard other than using the SharePoint APIs, I suspect that the issue lies there. If you can see the same behavior when using for example PowerShell or the REST API, then it would be a SharePoint issue which should be raised at https://github.com/sharepoint/sp-dev-docs/issues

Thanks @garrytrinder @waldekmastykarz

Using the PnP "App" command-lets works as expected, but when using the REST API, after running

https://<appcatalog siteurl>/_api/web/tenantappcatalog/AvailableApps/GetById('<solutionid>')/Remove

the webpart manifests are left in the _Client Side Component Manifests_ list.

Will close this and raise an issue at https://github.com/sharepoint/sp-dev-docs/issues
