How to disable Advanced web parts?
Hi all, in Teams I can disable all the apps I don't want my users to use. But is this possible in SharePoint as well? For example in the web part overview I find a lot of third party stuff ...
- Aug 26, 2022These web parts are only visible in team sites. Not in communication sites. Thats the reason why I was able to post a screenshot without the webparts.
I decided now for the following solution:
All these webarts I want to remove are powered by Office 365 connectors. They can be disabled with Set-OrganizationConfig -ConnectorsEnabledForSharePoint $false. This command is available in the EXO module. The webparts are still visible but they show a error message if someone tries to use them.

SYN_Dominik make sure you only give your users read permission so they can't edit pages and therefore can't access the available web parts.

unfortunately this solves my problem only for my sites. I am the admin and want to make sure that these web parts cant be used at any site.
