Connect Microsoft Teams
Connecting Microsoft Teams lets your reps submit competitive intel and ask battlecard questions right inside Teams, and lets Playwise HQ post competitor alerts to your channels. Unlike Slack, Teams links with a one-time code instead of a sign-in redirect, so setup has three parts.
What you’ll do
Section titled “What you’ll do”- Generate a one-time link code in Playwise HQ.
- Install the Playwise HQ app in your Microsoft Teams admin center.
- Redeem the code in a chat with the Playwise HQ bot.
Before you start
Section titled “Before you start”- You need the Admin role in Playwise HQ.
- You’ll need someone who can install apps in your Microsoft Teams admin center.
- Microsoft Teams is available on the Pro and Enterprise plans (and during your trial).
Link Teams
Section titled “Link Teams”- In Playwise HQ, go to Settings → Integrations → Microsoft Teams and click Generate link code. A one-time code appears with a countdown — keep this screen open.
- In your Microsoft Teams admin center, install the Playwise HQ app. If you need the app package, use the download link shown on the same screen.
- In Teams, open a chat with the Playwise HQ bot and send the code to redeem it.
The status changes from Link pending to Connected on its own once the app is installed and the code is redeemed — this binds your Playwise HQ account to your Microsoft tenant.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- The code is shown once and expires after a short time. If you lose it or it expires, click Generate new code.
- Once connected, choose which channels to monitor and where alerts go from the Teams settings page.
- Reps don’t set anything up — as soon as Teams is linked, they can use Playwise HQ.
Still stuck?
Section titled “Still stuck?”If the status doesn’t reach Connected after you install the app and redeem the code, contact support and let us know your Microsoft tenant name.
