[Introduction:]
To help IT admins make faster, more informed decisions about app approvals, we're enhancing the App details page in Microsoft Teams admin center. In addition to listing requested permissions, the page will now display a risk rating for each permission and an overall privilege level for the app or agent. This provides clearer insight into potential data access risks.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 502842.
[When this will happen:]
General Availability (Worldwide): Rollout will begin mid-October 2025 and is expected to complete by the end of October 2025.
