How can I connect my Microsoft Teams account to Seenspire?

As an Account Owner or Manager, you can add a new source connection to your Seenspire account.
To connect your Microsoft Teams account to Seenspire, follow the steps below:

Step 1: Navigate to Source Connections

Click on your Account Name in the upper right-hand corner, then select Source Connections.


Step 2: Click on Add Source

Click Add Source and select MS Teams from the dropdown list and follow the authentication process.

Alert
To connect your Microsoft Teams account to Seenspire, you need to have a “Global Administrator” role associated with your user in Office 365. 
Once connected, any other MS Teams user will be able to connect, as the Seenspire app has been approved within the main Office 365 account.

If you are unable to get the "Global Administrator" role, you can also ask the Office 365 administrator to approve the Seenspire connection using this link.





Warning
It is important to check the "Consent on behalf of your organization" box to allow other users in your organization to connect their MS Teams account to Seenspire without having to get permission from the global administrator each time.
Info
Permissions allow Seenspire to access Microsoft Teams' data. When you grant these permissions, Seenspire has access to the following information:
