Myapplications.microsoft.com and managing applications

We have begun testing the new Myapplications.microsoft.com site. One thing we have noticed is the inability to manage the users who have access to an enterprise application.

 

In the older MyApps site, a delegated user listed within the self-service properties of an enterprise application, could manage and invite guest users (if they have been added to the Guest Inviter role) to their application.

 

However, when trying to do the same thing on Myapplications.microsoft.com brings up the following message on the Permissions and Accounts tab:

 

"This app does not have any accounts."

 

 

Has anyone else experienced this issue? We currently have Azure AD P1.

  • Hi,

    Yes, many organizations noticed this when Microsoft introduced the newer myapplications.microsoft.com experience.

    What you are seeing was commonly related to a feature gap between the legacy MyApps portal and the newer My Applications portal during that period.

    The older MyApps portal historically had better support for some delegated self-service application management scenarios, including:

    • Managing users assigned to an enterprise application
      • Inviting guest users (with proper Guest Inviter role)
      • Delegated app access management through self-service settings

    The newer myapplications.microsoft.com portal initially focused more on:

    • Application launch experience
      • Access panel modernization
      • Grouped apps / collections
      • Better end-user UX

    Because of that, some admin-lite delegated management functions were either missing, delayed, or inconsistent.

    The message:

    “This app does not have any accounts.”

    usually meant one of these:

    • Assigned users were not exposed correctly in the new portal
      • Delegated manager permissions were not yet fully supported there
      • The application assignment model was not compatible with that page
      • Backend sync lag between old and new experiences

    What many tenants did at the time:

    Continue using the legacy MyApps portal for delegated app management, while using the new portal mainly for launching apps.

    Recommended checks:

    • Confirm users are directly assigned to the Enterprise Application
      • Confirm self-service app management is enabled
      • Confirm delegated manager is configured
      • Confirm guest inviter role is active
      • Test with another browser / private session

    Short answer:

    Yes, others experienced this. At that time the newer portal did not yet have full parity with the legacy MyApps delegated management capabilities.

    If you are asking in a current context (2026), many of these experiences have since evolved, but back in 2020 this was a common transition issue.
