Office 365 store restrictions and SharePoint online add-in permissions for creating sites

Question

Hi,I submitted an office 365 SharePoint add-in app for certification in the Office Store, and was told that one of the changes required is that I remove the 'Full Control' permission for the app, as it is not supported in the store. My app enables the user to create a new web site based on certain criteria. The add-in works correctly with 'Full Control' permission, but does not work with lower levels such as 'Manage'.&nbsp;If the store does not allow me to use 'Full Control', what permissions&nbsp;or options can I use in order to still be able to create sites on behalf of the user?Is there a different way to go about having the add-in app create sites in a in an existing site collection? The trigger can be user initiated, or event based.&nbsp;Sorry for cross-posting, I'm not sure my question should go to the or the Office 365 community.&nbsp;I would love to get any ideas or solutions for this - Thanks!

Here's your current options -&nbsp;https://dev.office.com/blogs/combining-store-add-ins-with-high-trust-permissions

Which is not certainly optimal. We are looking for alternative options, but they are not unfortunately ready&nbsp;to be shared.

Can't unfortunately provide any timeline indications at this point to avoid unexpected delays.&nbsp;
