  • Install services – web part will pull data from them.

  • Install SharePoint Framework add-in – it is a web part itself.

Download wsp-package and extract it from the downloaded zip archive. The archive contains wsp-package (Plumsail.OrgChart.2019.wsp) and SharePoint Framework package (plumsail-orgchart-sp-2019.sppkg). Place those files to one of the servers in your Sharepoint 2019/SE farm.
