With the new enhanced app upgrade, users with a Member or Admin workspace role (or Contributors if allowed to update the app) were presented with the option to upgrade the app starting yesterday. Unfortunately, some users did this without understanding what it actually was. This has created some confusion for both developers and end users alike in production workspaces and and there is no way to go backwards.


From a governance standpoint, we need the ability to restrict the use of preview features in the service to those designated to test them out in non-production workspaces. Similar to many other features that designate by security groups who can use it.


The datamarts feature is turned on/off for the entire organization in tenant settings. That needs to have security group granularity as well. Part of governance is maintaining the integrity of the environment, and not having this level control prohibits administrators from being able to do so.


Please consider adding this for current and all preview features in the service moving forward.

Thanks
