We are developing a web part within the company I work in to be used on many SharePoint sites on SharePoint Online. I originally thought of using an XML file stored on a shared site to store hierarchical global web part settings but I am afraid that loading the settings and performance will be impacted.

The storage mechanism must:

  • allow the web part to cache the settings
  • be really fast i.e. < 1 second to load
  • allow for hierarchical settings to be set, similar to XML

Anyone?

You can use tenant properties within your webpart. The properties can be set by an administrator using powershell and can be retrieved using a http request.

See tenant properties documentation for examples and usage

  • I can see how this would be useful. Could probably store a json string in that property BUT not sure what the max size is.
