Configuring single sign-on between Microsoft Teams and Connections

Authentication between Connections for the Microsoft Teams app and the Connections server is handled using single sign-on (SSO). This way, as long as the user's email address in Microsoft Teams matches the email address of the Connections user, the user won't be prompted to log in to Connections.

Before you begin

Make sure you've completed Enabling Connections to use the app registry service.

Procedure

There are two authentication schemas available for configuring the SSO relationship. The schema is specified when configuring the Teams microservices configmap in Set up Microsoft Teams integration.

Important: Like the chat integration for Teams, the SSO setup requires that the email address for the user's Teams identity matches the email address in Connections.

What to do next

Configure an Azure app to support the Microsoft Teams app
