Why do i need "admin approval" to use the smartsheet app in teams?

I'm trying to add a Smartsheet to a teams channel as a tab and I get the error:

Admin approval needed. Smarsheet needs admin approval to enable channel level sharing for this app. You may continue without this feature, or, if you're an admin you may use the button below to grant approval.

But hitting the "grant permissions" button doesn't work. My IT collaboration team recommended I post this to the community for assistance.

    You will have to get an admin of Teams to allow the Smartsheet for Teams app in the admin console of Teams.

Yeah. That does sound like it could take awhile. Haha. And if you knew the sheet I'd, you'd be able to just jump to it in SS instead of needing the api.<\/p>

Maybe a product enhancement request to expand the workflow portion of the api to include the sheet id is in order.<\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":321,"name":"Smartsheet Basics","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/smartsheet-basics%2B","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[{"tagID":227,"urlcode":"api-and-developers","name":"API and Developers"},{"tagID":334,"urlcode":"automations","name":"Automations"},{"tagID":448,"urlcode":"workflows-in-smartsheet","name":"Workflows in Smartsheet"}]},{"discussionID":109144,"type":"question","name":"Can you automatically rename\/add prefix to a mapped document?","excerpt":"I'm having an issue where I'm regularly automating a mapped document.

When you are setting up your mapping, you can drag and drop a field into the \"Output Document Name\" portion at the top of the mapping. You would just need a field that contains the document name (usually generated by a formula).<\/p>
