    You have to register Teams as your default chat app for Office, this can be done in Teams:

    - click on your profile picture

    - it is applied automatically (no Ok button), you just have to restart your office applications

Is click to chat and click to call working from outlook?
Is presence in general not shown in outlook or are you just missing the presence bubble next to the contact picture?

We have not finished our hybrid setup yet.

 

What other presence information is there within outlook besides the presence bubble?
