Connecting Your Microsoft Teams Account

If your organization likes to use Teams to communicate, we'd recommend you setting that up as your preferred communication method. As such, WorkStory will send and request information from you in the tool you're already spending most of your time in.

Similar to our other integrations, connecting with Microsoft Teams is limited to a direct chat between you and the WorkStory platform.
