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 PowerA...
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

ChrisHoardMVP 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 Or is this the setting you refer to:
Turn this on, then restrict in the Global policy and allow in the second policy for certain users.
- Absolutely - see the link I provided. That'll be what's blocking it
Best, Chris- Basically solution is this
Turn on the one in the picture above. Set the org wide policy in app setup policies to off. Create a custom app setup policy with custom apps to on. Apply the custom app policy to users who you want to upload apps.
That ought to work. May take a few hours to propagate.
