I'm trying to deploy a custom web part solution built with SPFx to my site collection app catalog on SharePoint. When I upload the .sppkg file, I get no errors, and the web part is automatically 'enabled'. According to this Microsoft tutorial, I should at this point be prompted to deploy the web part. But I'm not getting that prompt and I can't find any option to actually deploy the thing.
Here is what my app catalog looks like post-upload: app catalog view
This problem also happens when I try to upload/deploy the default SPFx project generated by the yeoman generator (@yo/sharepoint). This leads me to believe it's an issue with my app catalog rather than my code.
I'm using the following commands to bundle and package the solution:
gulp bundle --ship
gulp package-solution --ship
I also tried without the --ship option, no help.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, I'm desperate at this point. Thanks
