Introduction: The Power Apps Permissions Form

A user opening a Power Apps canvas app sees this pop-up known as the Power Apps consent form. It asks the user permission to create a new connection to the online services used in the app. We want to prevent this form from showing.

Write A PowerShell Cmdlet To Bypass The Power Apps Permissons Form

We can use a PowerShell cmdlet to make the Power Apps consent form stop appearing . To do this, we will need to obtain the environment name GUID, the app name GUID and then use them in the PowerShell cmdlet below. Set-AdminPowerAppApisToBypassConsent -EnvironmentName [Guid] -AppName [Guid] Code language: CSS ( css ) Get The Power Platform Environment ID

To find the Power Platform environment ID for app the app open make.powerapps.com and navigate the environment where the app is located. Then go to the Settings menu and select Developer resources .

Copy the Environment ID from the Developer resources menu…

…and paste it into Windows notepad for safe-keeping until we need it.

Next, we will get the canvas app unique ID. Click the three dots beside the canvas app and then select Details . Copy the App ID from the Details menu…

Open Windows PowerShell In Administrator Mode

Go to the Windows start menu and search for Windows Powershell. Run Windows PowerShell as an administrator. There will likely be multiple versions of PowerShell installed on your machine. Ensure you select the proper one.

Optional Step: Install The Power Apps Administration Power Shell Module

If you have never used a Power Apps Administration PowerShell cmdlet before you will need to install the module.

Type these commands into the PowerShell console. Enter a username and password when the Microsoft 365 login prompt appears. Install-Module -Name Microsoft .PowerApps .Administration .PowerShell Install-Module -Name Microsoft .PowerApps .PowerShell -AllowClobber Code language: CSS ( css )

Enter The PowerShell Cmdlet To Bypass Consent

Once the Power Apps administration library is installed we can input the cmdlet to bypass the consent form.

Write this PowerShell command in the console. Supply the environment name and app name GUIDs we gathered earlier in the tutorial>

Set -AdminPowerAppApisToBypassConsent -EnvironmentName Default-f1b8b509 -50 a4 -4 a5c -8e48 -bf3d3e7c10ed -AppName 9 a6d22d6 -79 a2 -4 d32 -8 abd -747 a1d8ebcb0 Code language: JavaScript ( javascript )

Run the command by pressing enter. The PowerShell console should look like this if the command executed successfully.

Test The Power Apps Canvas App To Ensure The Permissions Form Is Turned Off

To test that the permissions form is no longer appearing to end-users, ask a user who is seeing the prompt to play the app.

If the permissions form does not appear then we can confirm that the user is no longer required to give consent. Did You Enjoy This Article? 😺
