How to Enable Microsoft Teams Synchronization in WorkAdventure

Would you like to synchronize your Microsoft Teams account with WorkAdventure? You’re in the right place! 💪

Features of Microsoft Teams Synchronization​

  • Presence Synchronization: Your status between WorkAdventure and Microsoft Teams will be automatically synchronized. For instance, if you're in a Microsoft Teams meeting and your status is "Busy" or "Away," this status will be reflected in WorkAdventure. Similarly, if you're in a WorkAdventure meeting, the "Busy" status will apply in Microsoft Teams as well ✅
  • Calendar Integration: Your Microsoft Teams meeting calendar will synchronize with WorkAdventure, allowing you to join meetings directly from WorkAdventure 🗓️
  • Join Meetings: With "admin" access through the Editor Map, you can replace Jitsi Meeting zones with Microsoft Teams meeting zones, enabling users to join live meetings when they enter a meeting area 🎯

3.1 - WorkAdventure - BO - SSO - Step1

ℹ️ Some things importants:

  • To be synchronize with your Microsoft Teams account, a user must be connected with the SSO OpenId connect previously added. Switch "Authenticate mandatory".
  • To guarantee a flawless user connection experience, we recommend:
    • disable "Allow self-registration" and "Allow authentication login / password"
    • disable all "Social login" to automatically access the Microsoft SSO connection and be directly synchronized with Microsoft Teams when the user enters the WorkAdventure virtual room.

3.2 - WorkAdventure - BO - SSO - Step2

ℹ️ One more things importants:

  • To allow information exchange between the WorkAdventure platform and the MS Graph API, enable the "Expose Access Token" option, which uses the access token generated when the user logs in via SSO OpenID Connect.
