Microsoft Teams

Connecting your Microsoft Teams to Dovetail enables you to share Dovetail content with rich previews, get updates about changes in your projects and receive comments in real-time — all via Microsoft Teams.

To connect your Teams account, select ⚙️ Settings → Integrations in the sidebar. Locate Microsoft Teams in the integrations list and select Connect. Continue to login to your Microsoft Teams account and review requested permissions.

If you get an error saying 'No organization found for this Microsoft Teams account', this means you've tried to integrate with a personal Microsoft account which our app does not support.

When you connect your Microsoft Teams account to Dovetail, you will grant Dovetail access to:

• Read your organization's app catalog — Allows us to find the internal ID of our Microsoft Team's app.

• Read and write our Microsoft Team's app for a user — Allows us to install our Microsoft Team's app for the user, as well as retrieving the installation ID used to retrieve the conversation ID.

• Read information about the user — Allows us to view user's email and organization name.

• Offline access — Allows us to regenerate user's authorization via a refresh token.

When you share a Dovetail link in Microsoft Teams, all the relevant information related to the link will be displayed directly in Microsoft Teams for you and your colleagues to see.

The supported links are notes, highlights, tags, insights, project readme, and people.

Highlight Embeds

When you share a highlight, you will also get a video embed of the highlight that your team can play right from Microsoft Teams.

If you are using the desktop or mobile app, to play the highlight you'll need to go through an authentication flow.

• To do this, copy the link provided, paste it into your browser, and login to Dovetail.

• From there, copy the one-time password (OTP) then enter the OTP in Microsoft Teams.

You can stop receiving notifications in Microsoft Teams from Dovetail. In Dovetail, select ⚙️ Settings → Notifications. You can then turn the Microsoft Teams notifications on or off.

If you wish to disconnect your Microsoft Teams account from Dovetail, select ⚙️ Settings → Integrations in the sidebar. Locate Microsoft Teams in the integrations list and select Disconnect.
