Manage App User with Groups

Hello everyone!

I would like to add a new employee group to a published app.

Since there is also the opportunity to use groups for this purpose I would like to ask you what kind of groups that should be.

Is this a simple Outlook group?

Are there any restrictions or anything else we should consider?

Hi @joshua1990 ,

 

Check the information below:

On Permissions, decide who has access to the app, and what they can do with it.

  • In classic workspaces: everyone in your organization, specific people, or Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) security groups.
  • In the new experience workspaces: specific people, Azure AD security groups and distribution lists, and Microsoft 365 Groups. All workspace users are automatically given access to the app for the workspace.
  • You can allow app users to connect to the app's underlying datasets by giving them Build permission. They'll see these datasets when they're searching for shared datasets. Read more about allowing users to connect to the app's datasets, in this article.
  • Users with Build permission can also have permission to copy reports from this app to another workspace. Read more about allowing users to copy reports in the app, in this article.

For the reference,pls see below:
