Summary:
Microsoft Teams introduces a public preview of preapproval policies for RSC permissions, enabling admins to control user consent for RSC on an app-by-app basis. Rollout begins June 24, 2024, for Targeted Release and mid-September 2024 for General Availability. Admins can learn to manage these policies via PowerShell cmdlets. No action is required for the rollout.

Details:
We are excited to announce public preview of preapproval policies for resource-specific consent (RSC) permissions. Preapproval policies for RSC permissions (enabled by PowerShell cmdlets) give admins the ability to allow users to grant consent to data through RSC without having to allow all RSC enabled applications in their organization. This feature will allow admins to create policies to allow users to consent to RSC permissions on an app-by-app basis.
[When this will happen:]
Targeted Release: We began rolling out June 24, 2024, and expect to complete by late June 2024.
General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCC High, DoD): We will begin rolling out mid-September 2024 and expect to complete by late September 2024.
