Connect Microsoft Teams to Lin

Connect Lin to Microsoft Teams for interactive notifications and collaboration. Requires Lin app authorization, organization availability, and bot mention in channels.

A Teams admin must make Lin app available. If Lin is in Teams App Store:

1. 1 Teams Admin: Go to Teams Admin Center.
2. 2 Navigate 'Teams apps' > 'Manage apps'.
3. 3 Search 'Lin'.
4. 4 Select Lin app; ensure 'Allowed'. Check app permission policies.
5. 5 Admin may need to grant consent if required by org policies.

Note: If app is approved org-wide, individual users may not need admin action, but app must be discoverable.

Once Lin app is available in Teams:

1. 1 Lin dashboard: 'Platform Connections' > 'Connect New Communication Platform'.
2. 2 Select 'Microsoft Teams'.
3. 3 Redirect to Microsoft OAuth. Sign in with work/school account.
4. 4 Review Lin permissions (read teams, install bot, send/receive messages).
5. 5 Click 'Accept'.
6. 6 Redirect to Lin. Bot auto-installs in accessible teams (may take moments).

After Lin bot is added, initialize in channels for notifications:

1. 1 Go to desired Teams channel.
2. 2 Type `@Lin` and send message (e.g., `@Lin hello`) to register channel.
3. 3 Bot may send confirmation.
4. 4 Repeat for all notification channels.
5. 5 Select initialized channels in Lin's 'Project Notification Settings'.

Important: Notifications only sent to channels where `@Lin` mentioned and configured in Lin settings.

• Cannot find/add Lin app? Contact Teams admin for availability.
• Admin approval error during OAuth? Contact M365/Teams admin for tenant-wide consent.
• Ensure third-party app integrations & bot mentions allowed by Teams policies.
• No channel notifications? Verify `@Lin` mention and Lin project settings configuration.
