128Our client has a requirement to disable new M365 users from creating Power Apps and Power Automate flow until they receive training. It would seem that this could be achieved by:
- Setting AllowAdHocSubscriptions to $false in PowerShell (Set-MsolCompanySettings)
- Setting AllowSelfServicePurchase to all Products to "Disabled" in PowerShell (Update-MsCommerceProductPolicy)
- Unchecking "Let users install trial apps and services" in M365 Admin, Settings, OrgSettings, User owned apps and services
- turning off Power Apps and Power Automate apps in their Office 365 E3 license (the only license user has)
However, when users to go make.powerapps.com they ARE presented with an option to create a trial and they can create a trial, even though I believe I have turned off the options that make this possible.
I believe it used to be possible to disable Power Apps trial accounts because when I was teaching AIAD workshops last fall users told me that they couldn't create trials with their company O365 E3 accounts so I set them up with demo accounts.
Does anybody have any idea how to COMPLETELY disallow user access to Power Apps? I've tested with creating absolutely new test users (therefore they have never had Power Apps trial or "free" licenses) and they CAN create a Power Apps trial if they click on the "Start my trial" button on the webpage that pops up if they don't have a license when they go to make.powerapps.com. I know this article from December 2019 says you CAN'T block users from creating trial accounts but I KNOW from my workshops that there were users who couldn't create Power Apps trials. Do you think those admins of their companies were blocking particular URLS on their company laptops? Maybe that's the way they did it?
Any suggestions very much appreciated! I need to get a DEFINITE answer to whether it is possible to completely block users from using Power Apps.
