Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams | Office 365 | AD | API
Microsoft Teams is a collaboration platform that is part of the Microsoft Office 365 suite of productivity tools. It is designed to help teams communicate and collaborate more effectively by providing a centralized location for conversations, meetings, files and applications.

Teams can use Microsoft Teams to chat, hold video or audio meetings, share files and documents, and work on collaborative projects in real time. The platform also integrates with other Microsoft and third-party tools such as OneNote, SharePoint and Trello to create a comprehensive workspace for teams.
Microsoft Teams is used by businesses, schools and other organizations to improve communication and collaboration between their teams. It is available on desktop, web and mobile platforms and can be used from any location, with an internet connection.

Some related technologies that work with Microsoft Teams are:

Microsoft Graph: Microsoft Teams integrates with the Microsoft Graph API, which allows developers to access data and insights from various Microsoft products and services. This can be used to create custom integrations and applications for Microsoft Teams.

BITS experts have used Microsoft Teams in a variety of projects. A selection of case studies and references can be found below.
