| MC424414 | (Updated) Non-Native and Hybrid Microsoft Viva Engage (formerly Yammer) Networks are being upgraded | You will lose access to the following features: Network-level guests Email blocked lists Secret groups If your organization has active guest users, Azure Active Directory B2B guest functionality can be used for guests who reside in the same geography as the Yammer network (US guests for US networks; EU guests for EU networks). Guests will need to be reinvited to your network. If your organization currently uses an email blocked list to manage access to your Yammer network, you can continue to manage access from the Azure Active Directory Portal. Learn more by visiting Turn off Yammer access for Office 365 users and Manage Yammer licenses in Office 365. These feature equivalents are only available to networks in Native Mode. There is no feature equivalent to secret groups in Microsoft 365; all groups must be public or private. As part of the migration process, the Yammer administrator account will be added to all groups in the network, and files may be renamed. |

If the setting is False, the Teams client media library will not share the local IP address to the peers, which will force the media connection to be established through a relay server or a media processor server. If the Setting is True, the local IP address will be shared to the peers as a direct connection for better media quality and lower bandwidth usage. Direct Media Connection is a user-level policy that admins can set as a tenant default or configure for specific individuals in their tenant.

Note that as the feature rolls out the default setting for direct media connection as enabled (“on”). The default being "On" means all paths will be enabled and customers have the capability to force relay for meetings from admin-controlled config.

| MC688930 | (Updated) Teams admin center: App centric management and changes to app permission policies | Updated March 11, 2024: We have updated the timing of this change below. Thank you for your patience. App centric management introduces new admin settings to control who in the tenant can install Teams apps. First, admins can set a default value for new apps that are published to the Teams app store. Second, admins can manage apps for users, groups, or everyone in the organization. This feature replaces the existing app permission policies and provides admins with the ability to manage access to the app individually. The app permission policies for existing customers are migrated to maintain existing app availability in the tenant. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 151829 |
Updated April 12, 2024: We are excited to announce that Phase 2 of app centric management roll out is scheduled to begin in May 2024. This phase will be available to all tenants and can be initiated at the admin’s discretion. What is in phase 2? Migration wizard: a step-by-step guide to help you migrate the permission policies. You will be able to select which polities to migrate and designate users groups or individuals who should have access to the apps. Testing and Validation: before finalizing the migration, you will have the opportunity to test and export your staged changes. You can use this to make side-by-side comparison with your current setup, ensuring everything is perfect before you proceed. Duration: The migration process is designed to have no downtime for the end users and can take a few hours to complete. During the migration, your existing permission policies will remain in effect until the transition to app centric management completes. Detailed documentation for the migration process will be available in our online documentation, which currently includes information on managing apps after ACM migration.
