Security Considerations

Least Privilege

The multitenant app uses delegated permissions for meeting creation, chat, contacts, and user lookup, meaning it can only act on behalf of the currently signed-in user.
Can AccessCannot Access
Create/read/update/delete online meetingsRead emails or mailboxes
Read/send messages in Teams chatsAccess OneDrive files or SharePoint
Read user profiles and group membershipsRead calendars or calendar events
Read the signed-in user’s personal contactsDelete users or change passwords
Modify user roles or directory permissions

Delegated Permission Model

Because the app uses delegated permissions, meetings are always created as the signed-in user. This ensures that only authenticated users can trigger actions and eliminates the need for Teams Application Access Policies or PowerShell configuration.

App Registration Ownership

The multitenant app registration is configured in your tenant under App registrations. Treat app credentials and configuration values (redirect URI, Application ID URI, scopes) as controlled security settings. Limit who can edit them and review changes through your standard change-control process.

Revocable Access

You can revoke access at any time by disabling or deleting the app registration under Identity -> Applications -> App registrations in the Entra admin center (based on your organization’s change-control policy).

Appendix: Setup Checklist

Quick checklist for the complete setup:
  • Multitenant app registration created (client ID and tenant ID noted) and redirect URI configured.
  • Expose an API configured: Application ID URI set, access_as_user scope added, and both Microsoft Teams client IDs pre-authorized.
  • Graph delegated permissions added (admin consent granted in the final step).
  • Azure Communication Services (ACS) resource deployed and connection string / endpoint noted.
  • Tenant details and ACS credentials provided securely to Altoura.
  • Network allowlist updated for altouraremoteacs.azurewebsites.net (SaaS) or your custom URL (Customer Tenant).
  • Teams app package (provided by Altoura) uploaded to Teams Admin Center and status is Allowed.
  • Teams app Object ID added under Expose an API -> Authorized client applications (alongside the Teams client IDs).
  • Admin consent granted and required API permissions show “Granted”.
  • Meeting app pinned via Setup Policy (recommended).
  • End-to-end validation completed successfully.
