Microsoft Teams admins will soon be able to search for and identify monetized Teams apps are eligible to contribute towards an organization’s Microsoft Azure consumption commitment (MACC) as well as view remaining unspent MACC for their organization.
As part of this feature, the “Manage apps” tab of the Teams admin center (TAC) will include a new category in the “Browse by” filter and add new visuals in the app cards. These changes provide parity with the Azure Portal in terms of ability to search and identify Teams apps with transactable SaaS offers that are eligible to contribute towards an organization’s Azure consumption commitment.

This release of Microsoft Teams updated meeting chat setting will be rolling out across Microsoft Teams Desktop, Mobile and Web and will provide an additional way for tenants to manage external users’ chat access in meetings hosted by internal users.
