Admins can create apps, register Microsoft Entra apps, assign up to three owners, and set billing type directly in the admin center. The update also adds container management pages (view, archive, delete, restore containers) and a preview archival option using Microsoft 365 Archive that may reduce storage charges. Pass-through billing can now be configured from the Microsoft 365 admin center, linking usage to an Azure subscription. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How do I create a SharePoint Embedded app without using PowerShell? Use the new Apps experience in the SharePoint admin center. Go to SharePoint Embedded > Apps, select '+ Create app', then register or reuse a Microsoft Entra app, assign up to three owners, choose a billing type, and install the app in the tenant. The billing type cannot be changed after creation, and you can connect an Azure subscription later for owner organization billing. _daily.dev surfaces admin-center workflow changes like this for teams managing SharePoint Embedded deployments._ ### How can I reduce storage costs for inactive SharePoint Embedded containers? Archive containers that must be retained but no longer need active access, using the preview SharePoint Embedded container archival feature. It moves content to Microsoft 365 Archive, a lower-cost cold-storage tier, while keeping the same security, compliance, and search standards as active storage. Archived storage usage appears as a separate meter in Azure billing transactions. _those tuning storage spend track preview features like container archival through daily.dev._ ### Can I set up SharePoint Embedded billing without using Azure directly? Yes, a Billing or Global admin can configure pass-through billing straight from the Microsoft 365 admin center by connecting the Azure subscription and resource group used for pay-as-you-go charges. For apps using pass-through billing, valid billing must be configured before users can access the app. _admins setting up app billing flows can follow updates like this via daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Build AI-powered apps without creating a vector database](https://daily.dev/posts/build-ai-powered-apps-without-creating-a-vector-database-2pn0tf9zd) · DevBlogs · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Develop enterprise-grade apps with SharePoint Embedded](https://daily.dev/posts/develop-enterprise-grade-apps-with-sharepoint-embedded-1i5pqi7mj) · DevBlogs · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Microsoft teases ‘reimagined SharePoint’ with added AI](https://daily.dev/posts/microsoft-teases-reimagined-sharepoint-with-added-ai-nnfweck7c) · The Register · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Bringing AI to Where Your Enterprise Lives: Helix \+ Microsoft 365](https://daily.dev/posts/bringing-ai-to-where-your-enterprise-lives-helix-microsoft-365-qsuhhbuli) · HelixML · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#microsoft](https://daily.dev/tags/microsoft), [#azure](https://daily.dev/tags/azure), [#powershell](https://daily.dev/tags/powershell) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/streamline-creation-and-management-of-ai-ready-custom-apps-with-sharepoint-embedded-ywj3hb6zb) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Streamline creation and management of AI-ready, custom apps with SharePoint Embedded","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/streamline-creation-and-management-of-ai-ready-custom-apps-with-sharepoint-embedded-ywj3hb6zb","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/streamline-creation-and-management-of-ai-ready-custom-apps-with-sharepoint-embedded-ywj3hb6zb"},"datePublished":"2026-10-28T16:28:16.155Z","dateModified":"2026-10-28T16:35:55.063Z","description":"Microsoft adds a new Apps experience to the SharePoint admin center for managing SharePoint Embedded applications.
