HiChrisHoardMVP ,
Thanks a lot! This is exactly what I need. I get stuck on step five though. I am a (the) teams admin yet I do not seem to have enough permissions to install the app. Reading the comments under the article I seem to be not the only one. But I'm confident I will find a way. Thanks a lot!

all the best!
