App setup policies not applying
In our environment, we've currently restricted the available apps within Teams to the general Microsoft family - planner Onenote, Stream etc. We'd like to grant users the ability to add their PowerApps into Teams and pin them if required.
I've created a Permission policy:
- allowed all Third party apps
- allowed all Tenant apps
- removed Powerapps from the Block specific apps
Created a setup policy
- Upload custom apps - on
- Allow user pinning - on
I've added my account to both of the policies and verified the policies are their via the Users section.
No changes are visible in Teams - have closed the client, rebooted, nothing...
Any suggestions?
- The ability to upload PowerApps to the Team - if you mean ones they have created in PowerApps and push to Teams via a zip file, are determined by the org wide app settings - upload custom apps which you have said are set to on.
If this is on, users should be able to see upload app in the Teams App Store. It’s a simple case of uploading the app there. Once uploaded it can be pinned assuming the app setup policy allows you to do that.
In terms of adding PowerApps as a tab in a channel that is determined by app permission policy. As Webb said, that can be propagation. Usually I find it’s 2 hours but I’ve had well up to 8.
Hope that answers your question
Best, ChrisChrisHoardMVP Thanks for the reply.
You've said the ability to upload the zips from PowerApps is an org wide default setting? It's either on or off for everyone?So, what's this setting in the custom Setup policy that I've created? I would have thought this would override the org-wide default?
- Hi Grant,
Org overrides it - see here

Best, Chris
- How long have you waited, these things can take hours+ sometimes to apply?
