Multiple Accounts in the Teams Desktop App

Hi to everyone,

I managed to add another account to Teams Desktop app, this is still (for what I understand) a trial features, in order to add another account in Teams' desktop app you'll need to enable the update of the application from the Teams administrative portal.

So, first of all, log in to admin.microsoft.com using an administrator account.
Select "Show all"

and "Teams"

You should be redirected to admin.teams.microsoft.com
expand the "Teams" Menu and select "Teams update policies"

I've created a "Test" policy in order to apply it only to my account for test purpose

In the new policy select the options as follow

Now go in the "Users" menu and select "Manage Users"

Search a user you want to assign the new created policy and click on "View policies"

In the user's page click on "Edit" in order to edit the Assigned Policies

Now search for "Update policy" and select the new policy from the drop down menu

Click Apply button and confirm.

Now, in the Teams desktop app of the user enabled you should see "Try the new Teams" in the upper left corner

Click on the flag and wait for new Teams app to download. Once completed the download Teams should automatically close and the new application will be opened

Now, clicking on your user icon in the upper right corner you should be able to see "Add another work account" 

Hope this solves your issue. 

Best regards 

Simone
