  2. Add new APP and search for "Promoted Links" App and create a new list with this template.
  3. Add the new items to list and specify the Image URL and Linsk for it with a short description to show in tile and give the order and save. 
  4. Add this App Part to show up in any page and set the Tiles View as default.
