Deny Access

Is it possible to deny specific users the ability to access calendar in teams not just hide it?

 

regards stefan

  • Stefan Åberg I believe it is not possible to block access to the calendar functionality, it is only possible to hide it with an App Setup Policy. https://admin.teams.microsoft.com/policies/app-setup

     

    With it hidden, it is still possible for the user to access via the ellipsis menu as they are still permitted automatically due to their allocated licences. I have tried removing a user's Exchange licence which will remove Outlook from the app launcher but their calendar and appointments are still visible within Teams with or without hiding the Calendar app.

  • Hi,

     

    For me the best you are going to get is hide, because the Calendar in question is that of the user. So you would expect a user to be able to access their own calendar.

     

    Sorry if I have misunderstood?

     

    Thanks
