MS Teams Outlook Addin

Hi, we have recently setup Teams and it is working great.   We have Exchange 2013 so we are missing the Meetings integration in the app with our Outlook calendars.   But I understand that the OUt...

Hi danieldunn10 

I suppose that you have implemented Azure AD connect so you sync user to your O365 tenant.

If that's  so, you should have ability to create Teams meeting within Outlook for Windows.

If you want to have Calendar tab inside Teams app, then you need to run Hybrid wizard for Exchange.

 

Rich Co-Existence
In a Hybrid configuration, on-premises Exchange and Exchange Online mailboxes
can collaborate as though they are in the same organization. Outlook
calendar and free/busy information is available across both
environments, along with a common Global Address List and emails between
on-premises and cloud recipients being treated as internal messages.

 

If you want that MAC users have Teams add-on inside Outlook, then you need to migrate that user/s to Exchange online. But they can also use Calendar tab (once you run Hybrid) from Teams app and schedule Teams meetings.

 

Br,

Fran

    Thanks for this, we dont have the AD connect setup. I do have a PC with Teams installed and it shows the Addin in Outlook. But in Remote Desktop when I log on as a user the addin does not show.

     

    Is there something else needed for a remote desktop setup?

     

    I'm trying to do the hybrid configuration, I am a little bit through it but I am stuck at this step

      I don't understand your setup.

      Teams is completely cloud service, hosted in O365.

       

      So let's go from start:

      you have on-premise Active directory with Exchange 2013.

      you have tenant in the o365

       

      1st step is to install Azure AD connect to sync on-premise AD users to O365. On o365 portal, or remote powershell you can give users appropriate licenses.

      After that you are ready to roll and you can use Teams.

       

      Added functionality like calendar in Teams .
