Most of these features are now in public preview. See the specific feature for more details. Information in this article is subject to change prior to general availability.

This article is for IT Pros and administrators who want to delegate Auto attendant and Call queue change capabilities to users in their organization.

Voice applications policies allow you to create and assign voice application policies to authorized users. Voice application policies control what configuration changes an authorized user can make to the auto attendants and call queues they're authorized for.

Before creating and assigning policies, read Plan for authorized users for licensing information and Set up authorized users. Some configuration capabilities require a Teams Premium license.

You can manage voice applications policies by using the Microsoft Teams admin center or with PowerShell to create and assign custom policies. Users in your organization automatically get the global policy unless you create and assign a custom policy.

To manage voice applications policies with PowerShell, use the following PowerShell cmdlets:

Important

The global, org-wide default policy disables all configuration change capabilities for all users. This policy should not be changed.

You must create and assign custom policies to allow authorized users to make configuration changes to auto attendants and call queues.

Best practice: The custom policy assigned to a user should provide the minimum levels of permissions the user needs to perform their job.

Create a custom voice applications policy

Create custom policies that reflect the configuration changes you want to allow authorized users to make to auto attendants and call queues.

  1. In the left navigation of the Microsoft Teams admin center, go to Voice > Voice applications policies.

  2. Select Add.

  3. Enter a name and description for the policy.

  4. From here, choose the settings you want to allow your authorized users to configure.

    Note

    Choose the policy name and description carefully as these can't be changed later.

  5. Select Save.

Edit a custom voice applications policy

You can edit any custom voice applications policies you create.

  1. In the left navigation of the Microsoft Teams admin center, go to Voice > Voice applications policies.
  2. Select the policy by selecting to the left of the policy name, and then select Edit.
  3. Change the settings you want to allow your authorized users to configure.
  4. Select Save.

Note

It's not possible to change the name or description of the policy.

Assign a custom voice applications policy to users

To individually assign a custom voice application policy to users, you can use the Teams admin center or Grant-CsTeamsVoiceApplicationsPolicy cmdlet.

In addition to creating a TeamsVoiceApplicationsPolicy and assigning it to users, a user must also be assigned as an Authorized user to at least one auto attendant or call queue.

A user must be an Authorized user to at least one auto attendant or call queue, and must have a voice applications policy assigned to perform the actions described in Voice applications policy settings.

To learn more about the different ways that you can assign policies to users, see Assign policies to your users in Teams.

Voice applications policy settings

Voice applications policies control the configuration changes and actions an authorized user can make to the auto attendants and call queues they're authorized for.
