RSC permissions cause app to fail installation in personal scope

I am trying to update an existing up to send notifications. The plan is to use RSC permissions for it. I configured the manifest (v 1.19) with the following scopes: "authorization": { "per...

Nivedipa-MSFTThanks for your answer. I read this page multiple times but there is nothing, that suggests that some permissions are incompatible with the personal scope. And this doesn't really make sense as it would make it impossible to install an app into multiple scopes which is quite a common thing? 

You speak of a common issue. Is there any other source where I can read more about it?

@jocsch - The TeamsActivity.Send.User permission is designed to send activity feed notifications to users in Microsoft Teams. It should work in a sideloaded application installed in the personal scope of a user.
For more detailed guidance, you can refer to the following documentation: Send activity feed notifications - Teams | Microsoft Learn

    Nivedipa-MSFTBut that would, that I most likely hit a bug in Teams because without that permission I can install the app, with the permission I can't. 

    Nothing else changes, code is not even reached, it is purely the manifest that has changed in between the installation attempts. So that is a very strong indicator that I hit a bug in Teams. 
    How to proceed?

      @jocsch - We successfully added the app using your provided manifest. Could you please check it again and let us know if it is working on your end?

        Nivedipa-MSFTThanks for trying. That is totally strange, that it works for you. I tried it again in my dev tenant and I still get the same error message that I described. 

        If it works for you, then my tenant might be broken. Or it only happens on an upgrade from a manifest without RSC to an manifest with RSC? 

        What really is strange that it works for you. I tried to install it into a second tenant via sideloading and I got this error message on this attempt:

        {"errorCode":"WebApplicationInfoIdOfSideloadedAppMustBeInTheSameTenantAsUser"}


        I couldn't find any configuration error and you obviously can install it.

        I am really lost here, I can't get the very same manifest to work in any of the tenants that I try.
