  • An organization admin must sign in with Continue with Microsoft in the browser once to link your Microsoft tenant before employees use the Teams app

Before you begin

Complete these steps in your web browser at your Teamvibe company URL before installing the app in Microsoft Teams. Use the same Microsoft work account your employees use in Teams.

  1. Sign in at your company URL (for example yourcompany.teamvibe.com) with a Teamvibe organization admin account
  2. Open Admin Center → People → Roles & access and enable Microsoft login
  3. In Allowed Domains, add your organization's Microsoft work email domain (for example yourcompany.com). It must match the domain employees use to sign in to Microsoft Teams
  4. Sign out if you are already signed in, return to the login page, and choose Continue with Microsoft. An organization admin must complete this once to link your Microsoft tenant to Teamvibe
