Capabilities
Application Permissions
or Roles limit the access of your application to Skype for Business Online to a
specific set of capabilities. To configure your app
for Skype for Business Online, you first need to specify which permissions your
app requires. You specify these permissions in application registration for
your app in the Azure management portal for Microsoft Azure Active Directory
(Azure AD). Select the application permissions type, as these are directly
assigned to the application.
We have exposed the following application
permissions in the current release, which the SaaS application can use via the
APIs:
|
Join and Manage Skype
Meetings (preview) |
Allows the app to join and
manage Skype meetings |
|
Create on-demand Skype
meetings (preview) |
Allows the app to create
on-demand Skype meetings (short term expiry) |
|
Send/Receive Instant Messages
(preview) |
Allows the app to send and
receive instant messages; and manage instant messaging service scenarios |
|
Guest user join services
(preview) |
Allows the app create an
on-demand Skype meeting and join guest users into Skype for Business services |
Note that these capabilities need to selected
in the AAD management portal during the SaaS application's Registration in Azure
Active Directory
and have Tenant Admin Consent, before they can be
used for a tenant.
