Microsoft Teams: App centric management in Teams Admin Center to manage the Apps access for tenants, end-users, and groups in DoD

New app-centric management capabilities in Teams Admin Center enable granular control over Teams app installation at the tenant, group, and user level. Existing app permission policies will be automatically migrated to preserve current app availability configurations.

Action required: Review and configure new app-centric management settings in Teams Admin Center to define default app installation policies and control per-app availability for users and groups.

Microsoft's description

App centric management introduces new admin settings to control who in the tenant can install Teams apps. First, admins can set a default value for new apps that are published to Teams app store. Second, admins can edit the availability of an app to “All users can install,” “Specific users and groups can install,” or “No user can install.” This feature evolves the existing app permission policies and provides admins with the ability to manage access to the app individually. The app permission policies for existing customers are migrated to maintain existing app availability in the tenant.
