When the file has been uploaded, SharePoint will give you the option to “Make this solution available to all sites in the organization” or not.

Disregard the following statement as the Toolbar is an extension. not a web part.

If you clear this setting, users won’t be able to add the web part to pages. The web part will continue to work if it was already added to pages.

Instead, read more about Tenant-scoped solution deployment for SharePoint Framework solutions

Check deployment status

If you did select “Make this solution available to all sites in the organization” the extention will be available to all site collections in your tenant and the value in column “Tenant Deployed” will be Yes

Implement jumpto365 configuration library

At the root site of your SharePoint Online site, create a document library called "jumpto365"

Install app in a specific site collection

If you did not select “Make this solution available to all sites in the organization” when you deployed the extention, you need to install the “App” individually on each site collection
