The Power Apps Consent Popup: A Necessary Evil?


The Power Apps Consent Popup is a prompt that appears when users open a Canvas App for the first time, asking for permission to access their connections. While it is necessary for the app to function properly, it can cause confusion and concern for users. Bypassing the consent popup is possible but not recommended, as it can pose security risks. Microsoft could improve the user experience by providing more specific details about how the app will use the permissions and allowing the consent prompt to appear only when necessary. Admins and CoEs should establish proper tenant restrictions and educate app makers about the consent dialog. Overall, it is important for users to understand the purpose of the consent popup and trust the app maker before granting permissions.
