Microsoft Integration – SSO and Teams - Azure AD Setup Guide

Azure AD Setup Guide (Single-Sign-On and Microsoft Teams)

The Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) integration for Teamgage enables your employees to use:

  1. Single Sign-On (SSO): Login to Teamgage with one click, allowing seamless access to your Teamgage account
  2. Microsoft Teams: Access reports, leave feedback and collaborate without ever leaving Teams*
You can choose to enable either or both features during the onboarding process. If you're not using Azure AD, Teamgage also supports

*If you organisation would also like to receive notifications in Teams (rather than email) follow the Teams notification setup guide. 


Setup Process

The first step is to contact support@teamgage.com and request an Azure AD onboarding link. Please include:

  1. all the email domain(s) used by your users (e.g. if your company email addresses are of the form john.smith@contoso.com, this would be contoso.com), 
  2. a test account on the email domain that Teamgage can use for internal testing,
  3. whether you are expecting to setup SSO and/or MS Teams. 
Multiple email domains may be provided if desired, as long as they are:
  1. unique to your organisation (not gmail.com), and
  2. all registered as Custom Domains within the one Azure AD Tenant

Our team will send through an email containing an onboarding URL that will direct you to your Azure onboarding. 


Provide consent for Teamgage to access your data by clicking on the blue 'Review and Accept Permissions' button. Once you have clicked on this button, you will be redirected to the Azure AD consent page where, assuming you have sufficient privileges, you will see the following information:

Once you have clicked 'Accept', your Azure AD set up is completed and you will be redirected back to the Azure AD Onboarding screen.

3) Install the Teams App (Optional)

When you install the Teamgage app into a channel, the app will announce its presence by sending a notification to the channel. As such, you coordinate with your organisation's Teamgage lead or communications team to plan when this happens.
This optional step enables the setup of the Teamgage app in your organisation's Microsoft Team's account. With the app installed, your users can interact with Teamgage without actually leaving the Teams app. There are two approaches you can select from:
  1. pre-installing the Teamgage Teams App into all Teams channels in your organisation by using the provided Powershell/BASH script, or
  2. Following the 'Login to Azure AD link' button.  
If you organisation would also like to receive notifications in Teams (rather than email) follow the Teams notification setup guide. 



Other Notes

  1. Teamgage integrates with Azure AD using the industry standard OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect protocols to keep your data secure.
  2. If you have any questions you can speak to our team - support@teamgage.com
