Distribution List - Cannot find : When I try to share the application

Posted on by shahvansh

Hello,

I’m attempting to share a Power Apps application with a distribution list, but Power Apps returns an error saying the DL cannot be found. What requirements or configurations should I share with my IT team so they can create a distribution list that can be used for sharing apps in Power Apps?

Thank you in advance.

You can only share Apps with Security Groups. That would include a Mail enabled Security group, but not a straight Distribution list.

Power Apps does not support sharing with Distribution Lists — that's why it's not found.

You need to share with either:

Microsoft 365 Groups (not DLs)

Azure AD Security Groups

Individual users

Ask your IT team to create a Security Group or M365 Group with those same members, and use that instead. It will work perfectly.
