Safe Exam Browser
Hello
Has anyone worked with Safe Exam Browser integrated with Teams?
- Hi pana507
Teams doesn't support the Safe Exam Browser from the perspective it is not an app in the App store. SEB is a kiosk application designed to run on the local machine where its browser typically connects to LMS systems such as Moodle and locks the machine so the student cannot navigate elsewhere during the exam. There is very little on the internet about those who have tried, and whilst SEB does support applications the feedback is that even though Teams has been added to the config file this hasn't worked for all students or it's performance has been patchy

You could always look to raise an enquiry here with Safe Exam Browser as it really SEB which should support Teams from an application perspective
https://safeexambrowser.org/support_en.html
Or open a uservoice for it here
https://sourceforge.net/p/seb/feature-requests/
In addition, Microsoft Forms - which is designed and which can be used for exams, does have uservoices open for integration
https://microsoftforms.uservoice.com/forums/386451-welcome-to-microsoft-forms-suggestion-box/suggestions/36853930--safe-exam-browser-for-forms
Would recommend to vote it up as well as chase SEB for an answer if they can officially support Teams.
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

Best, Chris- pana507Brass ContributorThank you very much for your answer.
Could you recommend a proctoring product that integrates 100% with Teams? It does not matter that it is paid
RegardsHi pana507
AFAIK there isn't one. I am not aware of any. There are uservoices beginning to surface on uservoice like this one
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40954027-test-or-assessment-proctor-meeting-version-proct
Unfortunately, I don't think something like this exists at this time in terms of 100% integration into Teams itself - but you may want to reach out to some of these
