Power Apps Teams application SSO

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2,563

Hi

 

I have made a power app into a Teams application following this guide.
https://www.o365dude.com/2019/10/08/powerapps-teams-app/

In the tab section i have added this.
https://apps.powerapps.com/play/mypowerappid?tenantId=mytenantid&source=teamstab

 

The application works but every time your start Teams it will ask you to sign in on the application.
It does not seem to use SSO at all and i wonder how can i achieve this? I dont want to prompt the user to login each time they click on the application.

    @JimmyWork The recommended way to add PowerApps to Teams is using the "Add a tab interface". Embedding the PowerApps another way will cause constant prompting for authentication. Please follow steps in document below to add the PowerApps to Teams

    Thank you for taking time to answer @Dejinmi 

    The reason why i want to have it as Teams application is because i want to make it available to users using Teams policy, i don't know of any way to really add a Teams Tab that is not in a channel as i want it to be available in the Teams application bar for certain users.

     

    Below i posted links that i think can help me solve it but i appreciate any help for this as I am new to the power platform

    @JimmyWork There really isnt a way to bypass the authentication if for your purposes you need the PowerApps embedded as an iframe. It will require authentication every time a user attempts to access the App.

    @Dejinmi Thank you again for answering but according to the documentation i can use sso on apps i create and they don't require it each time.

     

    Also i will keep this open until i finished testing but this seems to work.

    If i make the app on a SharePoint site only, nothing else but the webpart displaying the powerapps i can come around this already, it will not prompt the user it will auto login.

    Microsoft is also rolling out support for more entities in the Power Apps portals global search feature. The feature allows users to search for records across multiple entities, such as knowledge article, blog, blog post comment, forum post, forum thread and so on.

    Now admins will be able to set up Portal Global Search to search custom entities. Microsoft says this is one of the most requested features from portals users.

    Separately, Microsoft has released an Incentives Power Apps-based template for Teams admins to create Incentives apps in Teams that help organizations gamify change-management initiatives, such as getting employees to break old habits and learn new ways of doing things when using a new business system or process.

    Microsoft argues that gamification using incentives helps organizations avoid the risk of employees perceiving that change is being forced on them.

    Managers that use the Incentives app can decided on what incentives to use, such as a leaderboard, gift cards or free coffees, or maybe even a free lunch with the leader of the organization.

    SEE: No-code software: Microsoft's Power Apps gets better Teams links and mixed reality

    The Incentives template for Teams is open source and is available on GitHub. It's designed to incentivize and track participation in training and other change-management initiatives.

    The organization might setup an activity that an employee would undertake and, once complete, enter a unique code in the app to receive points. There's an admin module where admins create activities and rewards, as well as remove points if a user cheats.

     

    I hope this helps!
