Received my Stream Deck yesterday and was able to set up the integration with Teams quickly. Very cool!

 

A couple of actions I'd like to see added to the plug-in:

  1. An action to bring the Teams window to the forefront. I was able to create one kind of like this by using an "Open" action type and linking to the Teams shortcut, but it is janky. If the API can be used to guarantee the Teams window will appear when I press that button, that would be better. 
  2. An action during an actual meeting that would allow me to show or hide the Chat window or the People window with a button press. Those are the two additional views I use most often.
  3. An action to answer a call.
  4. The ability to have the Teams profile I've created become activated when I am in a Teams meeting, and set to my Default or other profiles otherwise. 

 

Currently, though, just the ability to mute and unmute or turn the camera on and off during a meeting is already covering two of the biggest things I bought the Stream Deck for. Looking forward to more features with this thing!
