App Setup Policy - Assign to a group
Hey guys,
I am confused a little bit - I could not found any solutions to assign a "app setup policy" to a AAD group. I just found under "meeting policies" - the tab "group policy assignment" this is also well documented. Actually I working with a workaround - with powershell and the azure and the teams module.
Is this still in work? Because when I verify a user - I can also see that the policy is then direct attached, but there is also the information "attached from group". But this is not working, or is there any documentation out there for this?
Hi,
I've not tested to assign the App Setup policy with to a group but it should be possible with PowerShell.

TheM365Guy Hi, just to add to the above it's also mentioned in the docs.
"Currently, policy assignment to groups using the Microsoft Teams admin center is only available for Teams calling policy, Teams call park policy, Teams policy, Teams live events policy, Teams meeting policy, and Teams messaging policy. For other policy types, use PowerShell."
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/assign-policies#using-the-microsoft-teams-admin-center-2
-PolicyTypeThe type of the policy to be assigned. Possible values:
- CallingLineIdentity
- TeamsAppSetupPolicy
- TeamsCallingPolicy
- TeamsCallParkPolicy
- TeamsChannelsPolicy
- TeamsComplianceRecordingPolicy
- TenantDialPlan
- TeamsEducationAssignmentsAppPolicy
- TeamsMeetingBroadcastPolicy
- TeamsMeetingPolicy
- TeamsMessagingPolicy
- TeamsShiftsPolicy
- TeamsUpdateManagementPolicy

- Hopefully TeamsAppPermissionPolicy gets added to that list soon. TeamsAppSetupPolicy is a bit useless without it for those of us who lock down access to apps for one reason or another.
- Hi David, it seems as if you can use New-CsBatchPolicyAssignmentOperation instead where it is included https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/teams/new-csbatchpolicyassignmentoperation?view=teams-ps
- This was my problem! I searched for the "policytype" and I could not found this information 🙂 "TeamsAppSetupPolicy" - thanks to you!!!
What I did in Powershell was
New-CsGroupPolicyAssignment -GroupId acb3174d-669c-4cc0-9d97-5844f7b9fcb8 -PolicyType TeamsAppSetupPolicy -PolicyName DigipleinMedewerkers
but I get an error and I don't know what to do with that.
