right now this code writes out the subsites title and relativeurl, but it also includes my title of my app, but i only want to display the subsites title and not title of the app also,

Any sugesstions what i should do? Here is my code

 function execCrossDomainRequest() { var executor = new SP.RequestExecutor(appweburl); var queryUrl = appweburl + "/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/webs?$select=Title,ServerRelativeUrl&@target='" +hostweburl + "'" ; executor.executeAsync( { url: queryUrl, method: "GET", headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" }, success: successHandler, error: errorHandler } ); } }) function successHandler(data) { $("#subSiteTitle").keypress(function () { var jsonObject = JSON.parse(data.body); var dataArr = $.makeArray(jsonObject.d.results); var resultArr = $.map(dataArr, function (item) { return { label: item.Title + " (" + item.ServerRelativeUrl + ")", value: item.ServerRelativeUrl }; });

The app hosted in SharePoint creates a sub site under the Host Site. This sub site is called App Web and it has the same name as that of the app. A filter needs to be added to the REST query so that this app web is the not included in the result set. Suppose the name of the app web is "App1", the filter will look like this:

$filter= Title ne 'App1'

In your case the REST Url will be:

var queryUrl = appweburl + "/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/webs?$select=Title,ServerRelativeUrl&$filter= Title ne 'NameOFApp'&@target='" +hostweburl + "'" ;

Replace 'NameOFApp' with name of your app.

UPDATE

Since you can have 'n' number of Apps in a Host site and obviously hard coding name of the app in filter is not an option. The other way to not include app webs in result set is to use WebTemplate in the filter. The filter to exclude App webs is:

$filter=WebTemplate ne 'APP'
