Restrict asses to "New approval request" button in Teams Approvals

Copper Contributor

Hi All,

 

For a while now I am researching a way to restrict the new approval request button in Teams, so its available only to certain group of users or none at all - but still the functionality to be active.

As this is good tool to be used in regards to collaboration it will be nice to have more settings option and security config, but for now I am not able to point out such.

 

Could anyone tell if this can be managed or not. And if Microsoft plans to add such options in the future?

 

The only workaround/s is creating something similar like this flow:

Thank you!

Hello, you can use the TAC (Teams Admin Center) options app permission policies https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-app-permission-policies
Thanks for the suggestion, but my idea is not to restrict "app" itself, but restrict the functionality for users to approve by their own.
I like to know if there was a solution found for this? I like to limit the button as well, but not the app.
