Creating a Microsoft Teams Meeting

Overview

To start a Teams meeting from your Sococo app, the user needs to have Teams integration enabled and Teams account connected to the app. When a Microsoft Teams meeting is started, it is linked to a room so all other users know that there is a meeting and can easily join.

Prerequisites

Solution

To start a meeting using Microsoft Teams, follow the steps below:

  1. Click the Create Teams Meeting button from the Talk drop-down at the top-right part of the app.

    2. Enter your password.
    3. As Microsoft did not process the application request yet, you might get the permissions request to accept the use of the app. This is expected until Microsoft reviews the request for the application.
