Enable customization for your Microsoft Teams app
You can allow admins to customize some aspects of your Microsoft Teams app in the Teams admin center. This feature is supported only for apps published to the Microsoft Teams Store. Custom apps published within an organization can't be customized.
Some possible uses of this feature are:
- Updating the app name from Contoso to Contoso Agent, which is the name users in the org can see. (Note: Users adding a connector to a chat or a channel can still see the original app name, Contoso.)
- Changing the description to include language and guidance that is better understood by your organization's end-users.
- Changing logo and logo outline to inspire confidence to the end-users to use the app since it seems provided by their organization.
- Changing the app's accent color to match an org's brand.
You can enable admins to customize apps by defining the app properties that is, the configurableProperties
section in the app manifest (previously called Teams app manifest), starting with version 1.11. You can use Developer Portal for Teams to edit the app manifest of your app.
Important
You can't test this feature during development. App customization isn't supported when publishing to an org's app catalog.
