    That's Strange thing that happens within all CRM/365 setups of the newest Version nbr.

    You need to go into one of the existing apps (sales app / service app, ...) and here you are: the Settings=>"My Apps" navigation pane is still there.

    I think it must be a bug that this navigation pane isn't available form your default business app (Dynamics 365 - custom).

    Hello,

    For version 8.2:

    The 'My Apps' item in the main menu (SiteMap) points to this page:

    https://organizationname.crm.dynamics.com/tools/AppModuleContainer/applandingtilepage.aspx

    Here is the node you are missing from your SiteMap XML:

    <Group Id="Application" ResourceId="Menu_Label_Application" DescriptionResourceId="Menu_Label_Application" ToolTipResourseId="Menu_Label_Application_ToolTip" IntroducedVersion="8.1.0.0">
  <SubArea Id="nav_interactive_service_hub" ResourceId="Interactive_Service_Hub_SubArea_Title" DescriptionResourceId="Interactive_Service_Hub_SubArea_Description" ToolTipResourseId="Interactive_Service_Hub_SubArea_ToolTip" Icon="/_imgs/InteractiveServiceHub_32.png" Url="/engagementhub.aspx" AvailableOffline="false" IntroducedVersion="8.1.0.0" />
  <SubArea Id="nav_app_modules" ResourceId="App_Modules_SubArea_Title" DescriptionResourceId="App_Modules_SubArea_Description" ToolTipResourseId="App_Modules_SubArea_ToolTip" Icon="/_imgs/AppModules_32x32.png" Url="/tools/AppModuleContainer/applandingtilepage.aspx" AvailableOffline="false" Client="Web" IntroducedVersion="8.1.0.0" />
</Group>

    You could use the SiteMap editor from the XrmToolBox to restore this node.

      

    For version 9.0:

    The 'My Apps' item in the main menu (SiteMap) points to a WebResource named 'msdyn_appmanagementcontrol'

    You could open this web resource directly to get the same page.

    https://organizationname.crm.dynamics.com/WebResources/msdyn_appmanagementcontrol

    Here is the node you are missing from your SiteMap XML:

    <Group Id="Application" ResourceId="Menu_Label_Application" DescriptionResourceId="Menu_Label_Application" ToolTipResourseId="Menu_Label_Application_ToolTip" IntroducedVersion="8.1.0.0">
  <SubArea Id="nav_app_modules" ResourceId="App_Modules_SubArea_Title" DescriptionResourceId="App_Modules_SubArea_Description" ToolTipResourseId="App_Modules_SubArea_ToolTip" Icon="/_imgs/AppModules_32x32.png" Url="$webresource:msdyn_appmanagementcontrol" AvailableOffline="false" Client="Web" IntroducedVersion="8.2.0.0" />
</Group>


    You could use the SiteMap editor from the XrmToolBox to restore this node.

    Hi,

    In case you don’t have "My App" in Settings, you can navigate to it by path “https: //instancename.crm.dynamics.com/tools/AppModuleContainer/applandingtilepage.aspx”

    Replace inastancename.crm with your org and region specific path.

    BR,

    Judy

    Rather than editing the sitemap by hand, the XRMToolBox Sitemap Editor Plugin has an 'Add Default Sitemap Group' option (right-click on an area to see the option). This allows you to reinstate missing areas like Application and Process Center if they have been removed.

    Make sure to select 'Add child components too' to add the appropriate sub groups within these groups.

    I only found this out today when investigating the same issue - XRM toolbox to the rescue yet again!!!

    In order for view apps, you must have a security role with app permissions.
    (security role > Customization > App)
