No share to teams button in my outlook
HI,
Last month, we start to be able to use "share to outlook" from teams, but we still do not see the "share to teams" button in outlook as stated in microsoft support
Can you please help to clarify? Is there any setting we need to do by admin
Thx
Ryan

I realize that this thread is two years old; however, if you found this via search because your "Share to Teams" is either not showing or the one you added to your Outlook Ribbon is greyed out, let me share what solved that for me.
I found the solution in this document: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/connected-experiences-in-office-8d2c04f7-6428-4e6e-ac58-5828d4da5b7c. Here is the relevant section from that document:Controlling these experiences
Office includes these connected experiences. If you'd like to turn these experiences off, go to any Microsoft 365 application - such as Word, Excel, or PowerPoint - and go to File > Account > Manage Settings (In Outlook it's under Office Account). There you can disable or enable, either category (or both).
The fix, however, is turning the experiences ON in this case. After I checked the box to "Turn on optional connected experiences," and restarted Outlook, the Teams button appeared, and the one I had added to the Ribbon now has color instead of gray.
If it helps, I found that document in a link from this one: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-outlook-share-teams. This depends on the version/build of Outlook, if you are on anything newer than the semi-annual channel build it should be available already.

Hi, I have version 2003 but the Share to Teams option isn't showing. Any ideas? The Teams com add-in is enabled.
- Jin ChenIron ContributorThank you very much
We are in the monthly channel, and I normally get new feature pretty fast. However, I still do not have it. Is there anything we should do from Admin sideNot that I know of, perhaps it's just a delayed rollout on the backend.

Does this also depend on this setting in Teams Admin Center ? Does this setting need to be "ON" for "Share to Teams" in Outlook?

Microsoft_Teams_team Any update on missing "Share to Teams" button in Outlook? Are there any minimum versions of Outlook needed or any setting like "Allow users to send email to channel email address" ?
- Andre SiregarBrass ContributorSeems like Microsoft is still rolling out this feature (surprisingly a long time). I still don't see this button in our tenant.

Thank you for your response. Yes, the roadmap shows is rolling out now. but we still do not have it
Jin Chen facing same here with our tenant. Roll out seems to take longer than expected. The roadmap item can be found here Teams-Outlook Email Integrations.

Jin Chen— We still don't have it as of August 18 2020. 6 months for rolling out this feature seems unbelievable.
