This where 0365 provides the capability to create custom tiles for the app launcher. Dev, Test which will take the user directly to the desired CRM instance. By default, when we provision a CRM instance a short cut will be created for the new D365 “home for all your business apps”.īut what if you want to create a dedicated tile, that instead of taking the user to the “ home for all your business apps”, it takes the user directly to the Production CRM instance or if there are multiple instances hosted within the subscription e.g. With the app launcher, we can basically create shortcuts to any application which is hosted within or externally to the O365 subscription.

I'm thinking there must be something in Azure AD but I am at a loss.One of the cool features of Microsoft 0ffice 365 is the App launcher. We can seem to find no information on how it was done or how to undo it. Both myself and my partner here have searched very diligently to find out how to do this but all we get is how to add custom apps - nothing about how to put back default applications. If there was a way to hide those apps, there should be a way to undo it. I suspect that this was set up by the individual who put us on Office 365 but that was 2 managers ago and nobody from the old guard who was around back then is there to tell us how they did that (my suspicion was that he wanted to drive usage to the desktop apps).

I know you can open Office Documents online, I just did it today and our OneDrive documents show up on the home page, but if a user wanted to use Word on the web, there is no app icon to do that.

If you go to the basic Office page, if you click on the icon to launch the app center, you should normally see all of the basic Office apps (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) along with all the office stuff.Īt least that's what should appear. In our office tenant, we have users that have two version of Office 365, Business Basic and Business Standard.
