Develop Teams App without Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription
Steev_Pierce - You can develop a Teams app without the sandbox. You can use the Teams Toolkit in Visual Studio Code to create a new app . The Teams Toolkit provides a “zero-configuration” approach to the developer experience, with integrated Identity, access to cloud storage, data from Microsoft Graph, and other services in Azure and Microsoft 365.
The error message you are encountering, "Authorization_RequestDenied - Insufficient privileges to complete the operation," indicates that the user does not have the required permissions to create an app in Azure Active Directory. Ensure that the user has either the Application Administrator or Application Developer role assigned. These roles provide the necessary permissions to create apps in Azure Active Directory.
Thanks,

https://appwizardpro.co.nz/power-bi/@Developing a Teams app without access to the Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription is indeed possible, though it may require a different approach. One option is to leverage the Microsoft Teams Toolkit for Visual Studio Code, which provides a set of tools and templates for building Teams apps locally. With this toolkit, developers can create, debug, and test Teams apps directly within Visual Studio Code without needing a sandbox subscription. Additionally, developers can utilize the Teams App Studio, a visual interface within Teams, to create and manage app manifests and test their apps in a development environment. While access to the sandbox subscription offers additional resources and capabilities for app development, developers can still create and deploy Teams apps using these alternative tools and methods.
