Assigning Admin permission to Business Users on PowerApp but not giving them ownership of the app

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I have created an app in PowerApps where I am the owner of the app and I have the rights to share the app with other users. Now I have to move the application to production and there I want the Business User should have authority to share the app with users but they should not own the app instead they should only have admin permission to share the app with other users. Is it achievable?

 

Also, is it possible for Business Users to share the app directly with users without actually going to PowerApps portal and then going to app and share it with users.

    Hi @learnpowerapp ,

    Unfortunately there are only two permission levels available and to share the app with others, a user requires co-owner status.

    @WarrenBelz - Thanks for the response. But if there are more than one co-owner of the app, will it not be difficult  to manage if someone edited the app.

    Also, will all the co-owners have to go to PowerApps portal https://make.powerapps.com/ to share the app with others and there is no other way around.

    @learnpowerapp ,

    I am a little confused with your question. A co-owner of an app can both make design changes and share the app with others. They need to do both of these from the Power Apps Portal. A normal user can only run the app. Only these two authority levels exist.

    Bear in mind that you can use Office365 Security Groups and share the app with the Group, meaning that anyone with the ability to add users to this group effectively shares the App. This is the manner I manage all my apps where I have myself and a Service Account only as co-owners.
