Google文档或电子表格插件在G Suit和Chrome Webstore中作为Chrome扩展发布

Question

I am trying to deploy as Docs add-on and publish the Add-on to both Chrome Webstore as well as G Suit. The problem that I am getting is that when I click on "Preview changes" button before publishing the add-on, I am being redirected to a screen which shows that the add-on is a Chrome Extension. I have not had this problem in the past until recently when I have tried publishing one of my add-ons as unlisted, which got published as Chrome Extension instead of Installable Add-on for Google Documents. I have also got a similar add-on published for Google Sheets, which had some problems but I have managed to fix them and updated the Chrome listing too without any complications. I have emailed Google Add-on advisor, but so far had no response.

I wonder if anyone else has experienced the same problem with publishing Add-ons?

Also, Add-on Curator asked me to post this question here and Google+ Add-on Developer Community

here is my manifest.json file content:

{
  "manifest_version": 2,
  "name": "Add-on Name",
  "version": "1",
  "description": "My Description of the add-on",
  "icons": {
    "128": "icons/add-on_128.png",
    "96": "icons/add-on_96.png",
    "48": "icons/add-on_48.png",
    "32": "icons/add-on_32.png",
    "16": "icons/add-on_16.png"
  },
  "container": ["GOOGLE_DRIVE"],
  "api_console_project_id": "add-on_id",
  "app" : {
    "background": {
      "persistent": false
    }
  },
  "launch" : {
    "web_url" : "example.html"
  }
}

UPDATE: To publish your add-on, please follow the procedure described on https://developers.google.com/gsuite/add-ons/how-tos/publish-addons

AFAIK the old Chrome Web Store Dashboard (CWS) regarding the G Suite Add-ons is in "maintenance mode" from a while, meaning that the Google team have no budget to adapt or improve non-critical/must-have features, specially because they already have a "new Developer Dashboard" and that was announced that the add-ons publishing process will change "soon".

Warning : Originally editor add-ons were published to the Chrome Web Store, and could optionally be published in the G Suite Marketplace to make them domain-wide installable.

Publishing to the G Suite Marketplace is no longer optional . The publishing instructions below have been revised to reflect this. See Chrome Web Store migration for more details.
