Creating Customized Badges for the Microsoft Teams Praise App

[Tony Redmond]

The Microsoft Teams Praise app is used to acknowledge the achievements of people. Different badges exist to highlight various ways people contribute to teams. Now you can create custom badges and publish them for use in the Praise app. All sorts of interesting ideas come to mind. How artistic can you be?

Thanks for posting, @Tony Redmond

@Tony Redmond  when will this Feature be available in the Teams admin center?

@Tony Redmond 

I am not an admin, but I am challenging my own IT to work on this... It seems this feature is already live.

Based on the documentation below, Teams Admins can add up to 25 custom badges.

@EvaAOP Have you been able to access this feature yet? I asked twitter TEAMs support and they said I should open a support ticket...

@RogerMcCann You should see it now.

Hi @Tony Redmond 
I am looking to add the above-mentioned commendation badge / tags to our company Microsoft Teams, so that I can bestow it on Community Channel Chat session participant members - for their contributions. However, I don't see the option to setup custom badges in Microsoft Teams, as of yet. I don't have access permissions to alter / modify the current, & limited set of praise badges that are available on my company Microsoft Teams. What permissions do I need to do so, and what are the configuration steps that I should necessarily take, in order to provide for the above badge options for Community Channel Moderators, so that they can bestow the above-mentioned badges ?

@Tony Redmond does anybody know if this feature is still active?

[#10]

Nope. Customized badge support for the Praise app was withdrawn some time ago.
