Sharing Model-Driven app with AD synced group is NOT WORKING

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4

I have a model-driven asset management app as part of a solution, of which i want to provide read access to the whole organization.

I follow the guide bellow

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/model-driven-apps/share-model-driven-app

 

The issue is that, even though i can share the model-driven app with users and groups, the effective rights apply only to users and not to groups.

 

Example:

I share the app with AAD user "John Doe" and AAD Group "Asset Owners" in which user AAD "Jane Doe" is member, by following the same steps.

Even though i complete the sharing steps without getting any warning and error, John Doe will have the required access, but Jane Doe will have no access to the model-driven app!

    @plag ,
    Sharing an app in PowerApps with groups works  ONLY if you use security groups !

    Hello @plag,

     

    You are trying to add a BUSINESS UNITS in https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/environments.

     

    Try adding AD Groups using following link. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/create-groups/create-groups?view=o365-worldwide

    Hello @rampprakash , 

     

    This happens automatically during the access assignement

    The Power Platform creates Teams, named after the security group i used. You can see in the screenshot bellow that the Teams created have the security group assigned to them.

    I shared the app accordingly, as seen in the screenshot bellow.

    The security groups are already there from the AD synchronization, thus i don't create new ones, i just use the existing ones
