Unable to assign entity to a team

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 225

Hi,

I have a model driven app with events and I want the events to be owned by different teams. I use the table Teams and have the default lookup field "Owner Team" in my event table. I have created a couple of test teams in the Teams table, and when I try to add them to the owner field, they show up. No other teams (like O365 groups) shows up here. How can I make that happen?

When I save, I get the message shown here

When I try to share the app with this teams, so they can get security roles, they dont show up.

I have shared the app with a 365 group, but that group does not show up when I try to add it to the owner field. 

 

Please help me figure out what I am doing wrong! I'm pretty new to the model driven apps, so please explain at that level 😃

    Hello,

    Through Powerplatform Admin Center get to your environment, look up your team, and assign to it the security role that will allow owning of your "Event" entity.

    Hello, thanks for reaching out. 

    a33ik is correct you need to assign a security role to the owner team you created in the model driven app. For clarity when you are assigning access to the app through O365 security groups, that just gives users in the security group access to the app. You have to go a second layer deep and assign either the user the security role, or the team a security role, which the users will then inherit when they sign in as members of that team. 

    Good Luck.
