This article outlines all the core 365 (SharePoint, App Source add-ins, Teams) applications approved for the NHSmail platform. These applications have passed a hurdle assessment conducted by the Technical Design Authority (TDA). Once approved, applications are typically implemented within a 1–2-week window.
If you are unable to access or locate an application that appears on this list, please allow the above timeframe to elapse before reattempting.
In very rare scenarios applications may be withdrawn from the platform due to updates that make them no longer compliant with NHS platform policy.
These apps may require additional licences to be fully utilised, further details can be found on the relevant MS product website.
If additional licences are required, they will need to be procured and assigned by the local organisation.
Assessments are carried out at tenant level; we recommend that local organisations conduct their own internal assessments prior to using an application. This is to ensure the application is appropriate for an organisation’s specific use case in terms of functionality and adheres to any local security or clinical safety requirements.
