I have a question regarding permissions on PowerApps. I know external users from the current tenant are not able to use any PowerApps app. Here the official documentation and here from PowerApps Q&A.
But, is there a way to have trusted accounts or accounts from trusted domains and grant access to PowerApps apps? If not, is it in the current PowerApps roadmap and the roll out date for it?
Very good research, and those are great links.
Yes, currently PowerApps is limited to single Organization (tenant), nothing can be done to open it up/share across any other trusted tenants.
PowerApps portals is the one you are looking for, which can be established to external domain users (B2C & B2B).
PowerApps portals in private preview now, it will be available for Public preview from Jul '19 maybe. This was announced on Microsoft Business Applications Summit on June 10th 2019.

We recently submitted our Add-in for approval to be available on AppSource/Office Store and failed approval. Some of the feedback and policies make sense and we have addressed those items. However, there are a few policies that I'm not sure how to address and looking for guidance.
Policy 7.1 & 7.16 are about the supportURL not being publicly available and requiring Sign-in. Our add-in is not a general user add-in but targeted to Enterprise Customers of our Platform. They are provided a login for our support site so is this not sufficient? Do we really need a public url for an add-in targeted to Enterprise Customers?
As I was writing this I found the following link and wanted to make sure this was still valid and the same guidance for my scenario: App Submission - Help/Support Link Requirement
Policy 11.3 are about the Start-up experience needs to engage the user and show value proposition. Our users are Enterprise Users and have signed up for platform in which we will already guide them to use the Excel Add-in. Since they already know the value proposition from our sales team is there a way that this can be handled in our scenario without needing an explicit startup video or wizard walk through of app features?
Yes, this must be a public URL. The support link in your Seller Dashboard listing appears on the AppSource website so must be publicly available. It can be a link to your main website / or a contact page on your main website.
Have you seen the documentation on submitting Enterprise add-ins? This outlines which policies are not applicable when submitting an add-in which targets larger organizations and enterprises. It also explains how to declare, via test notes, that you are submitting an Enterprise add-in.
We are developing a Word Web Add-In that will be used exclusively by our customers rather than the general public. Customers will need to log into the Add-In in order to use it with credentials we supply. My question is, is this Add-In ok to be distributed via the Office Store? Will it fall foul of the validation process if its functionality is not publicly available ? Obviously, we can supply credentials to the verification team at Microsoft in order to get the app published.
If this is a problem, how do ISVs distribute Web Add-Ins to customers external to their organisation (i.e. Without Sharepoint or Office Admin Centre)?
This model is supported via the Office Store - this blog post on add-ins which target organizations and enterprises rather than consumers may be of interest to you.
Please ensure that your add-in description clearly states the need for an additional account, as well as supplying test credentials for the validation team to use.
I'm confused by the preliminary documentation on the OneNote dev blog. Does it mean that a Native App accessing has to use (compile in) a Client ID specific to an individual O365 subscription?
The implication being that an Commercial App would need recompiling for each different O365 customer. Is this the intention?
If so then this severely limits the utility of OneNote Api in O365.
I'm hoping that I've misunderstood, can anyone advise please?
Paul,
Apologies if we confused you with our initial preliminary docs. Definitely not the case. The app ID is relative to the O365 tenant that publishes the app, but you just flip over the switch to say it is a multi-tenant app for it to be able to be consumed by any tenant.
I have a Box.net (.com) account and wanted to create an application in Box.
I looked around the admin pages but can't find it.
I know it is possible, but I can't find it in the Administrative application pages. Where can I find it?
The "development interface" for Box is not in the administrative pages. You have to create a separate account for development. IMHO this is limiting, since most likely companies will have development teams and they should be linked to the Admin account, but I understand that separating them brings more flexibility.
But I digress. The admin pages are reached through https://box.com, but the development pages are in https://developers.box.com/
I'm using a Google Chrome Portable browser for my offline app. But I'm not sure if I can use it for commercial purposes. Please can anybody give advise if there's such a browser, that is completely free. Or is there really simple way how to create my own.. What I want is to show a html file in that browser. It doesn't need to have any address bar, etc. I've already searched how to create a browser, but I am not really good in programming languages, I only manage web pages, so I don't know which would be the best way.
Thank you for your answer.
You can use it for commercial purpose as per their EULA. See point 21.

This is the first answer I got when I searched a bit
