Configure Access Apps at the SharePoint Admin Center on Office 365

Welcome to a blog on how to Configure Access Apps at the SharePoint Admin Center on Office 365. Here in this blog we will see how to prevent or allow users from using Access Apps on the SharePoint sites.

To customize you need to be a tenant admin. If you are, let’s see how we can do it.

  • Click on the left corner of your SharePoint site to view the apps.



  • Click on Admin.

  • You will come to the “SharePoint admin center”.
  • Click on Settings on the left of the Admin Center.
  • Click on settings on the left navigation.
  • You will see an option “Connected Services”.


  • Here as we can see we have the options which we can choose to configure.

Access Apps are apps which are used to share and collaborate contents that run in the cloud.

  • You can either allow users to use Access apps or create new ones by enabling it or
  • You can disable it.

It depends on you as a tenant if you want your users to use access apps your site or not.

Once you complete the configuration click on OK and the option will be available accordingly on all the site collections through this tenant.
