M365 Changelog: Private Add-in data in Microsoft 365 Apps health retirement

MC711661 – The private add-in data on the Microsoft 365 Apps Health dashboard will be discontinued by Microsoft.

The Add-in tab on the Microsoft 365 Apps health page in the Microsoft 365 Apps admin center shows admins both public and private add-in data in one place. On February 29, 2024, the portal will stop processing and displaying private add-in data.

Other features in Microsoft 365 Apps health, like the performance & reliability metrics for the Microsoft 365 Apps as well as performance & reliability metrics for public add-ins are not affected and will remain available as of today.

The support of running add-ins by the Microsoft 365 Apps remains as-is and is not affected by this retirement note.

Public add-ins are extensions for the Microsoft 365 Apps that come from independent vendors or Microsoft and are generally broadly available, either for free or for a fee. Private add-ins are extensions specific to an organization and have been developed internally or externally for internal use and are not broadly available.

Note: You can ignore this message if your organization does not use Microsoft 365 Apps health or the Add-in health tab.

When this will happen:

Microsoft will roll out this change in late February 2024 and expect to complete by early March 2024.

How this will affect your organization:

The Microsoft 365 Apps health feature and the Add-in tab will continue to be available after this change. But the data shown on the Add-in tab will not include metrics from private add-ins anymore. Those data points will not be shown, searchable or exportable.

What you need to do to prepare:

You don’t have to do anything to get ready for this change. General information about Microsoft 365 Apps health and the Microsoft 365 Apps admin center are available in our documentation.
