How to exclude Microsoft Office 365 Portal from the microsoft admin portals - conditional access

Question

Hi all,

I have a conditional access policy to block Microsoft admin portals to all users except specific users (it team) however users who want to download office apps to their devices are unable to as Microsoft Office 365 Portal is included is the Microsoft admin portals, is there a way I can exclude this one portal from the conditional access policy?

I cant find Microsoft Office 365 Portal as an app to exclude it.

Answer 1

365 is only available as a service, so you cant isolate just the portal. There is no option currently to scope to just one of those portals and not the others. (You can scope to the Azure mgmt apps but not to the portal only there neither)

You can filter by the 365 apps , but not the portal specifically.

Answer 2

not possible since its bundled as an app.
