Remove ability to share Power Apps with users

Posted on by

Hi,

I read a very interesting story about Toyota working with the Power Platform: https://customers.microsoft.com/en-us/story/766054-toyota-manufacturing-power-apps

There is a very interesting part in the text:

If an app isn’t approved, the citizen developer can continue developing it, but their ability to share it with coworkers is removed through an automated process in Microsoft Power Automate.

Does anyone know which action in Power Automate you can use for this? 

I don't see a way to turn off sharing Power Apps?

What is possible is to create a recurring flow (that runs for example every hour) that removes the user permissions for a Power App, but this does not turn off sharing. In this topic they describe how you can run a flow that removes permissions: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Flows/PERMISSIONS-PowerApps-for-App-Makers-Remove-User-Permissions/m-p/346686

Anyone has experience with this?

Thanks

Wouter

    Please check out the COE starter kit. This includes an app audit process that can be used as the basline for identifying apps shared with other users that should not be

    Based on this you can use the Power Apps for Administrators connector to remove permissions from the apps that are not compliant.

    Using the COE starter kit requires you to have a CDS environment to install it in.
