now i removed a user from the above security group, but the user is still able to access the PROD environment canvas app... i did this around 1 hour ago, any advice how i can force the user not to see the canvas app?

 

Thanks

    You might need to log a ticket. This seems a bug to me. 

     

    "Users running canvas apps when a security group is associated with the environment of the app must be members of the security group to be able to run the canvas app, regardless of whether the app has been shared with them. Otherwise, users will see this error message: "You can't open apps in this environment. You are not a member of the environment's security group." If your Power Platform admin has set governance details for your organization, you will see a governance contact that you may reach out to for security group membership."

    Can you check if the user exists in the table users from the environment?
    Go to: https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/environments > Your environment > Settings > Users

    @AlbertoCastro the app is still shared with the user directly, but the user is not within the security group of the environment

    OK, and how did you share the app, to the user directly or to another group? Have you removed the user in the share options of the app?
