Disable third-party apps in Power BI app store

Hi,

Is there a way to disable third-party apps in the Power BI app list, so that only apps from my organization appear? E.g. in the tenant administration?

Thank you very much!

Best regards,

Martin

yes, go to the power bi tenant configurations, un "aplication template configuration" section, this will allow to disable the option for the whole tenant and spicify who can do it or if no one will.

Hi, @MartinB_Nbg 

 

This is exactly what the Organizational apps tab does.

 

I expected the external apps to not even appear in the app store so that users don't get confused with our organizational apps and public apps

If you don't want users to install apps by mistake, then disable this option"Install template apps listed on AppSource".
If you're still worried about users getting confused, then install apps automatically for users so they don't even need to visit the app store.

 

 

Hope this helps.

Hi @StefanoGrimaldi ,
Thank you for taking your time! I verified the solution. It actually works, although not the way I was looking for. I expected the external apps to not even appear in the app store so that users don't get confused with our organizational apps and public apps. But what it actually does is that I still see all public apps, can pick them and only just before installing them they are blocked by this setting.
Is there an additional setting to achieve that? If necessary maybe through a PowerShell commandlet?
