Introduction

After uploading the app in the Teams admin center, it is time to distribute the app to the users in your tenant. This can be done via a policy, or the users can add the app themselves. In this article, we will also talk about the policy on how to arrange the apps in the order that you want them to appear in Teams.

Add the Workspace app as a user

When the app has been made available in the Teams App Store by the admin, the users can now add the Workspace app to Teams.
