We have started to use teams in our establishment and I was wondering what the difference is between using Teams via a Web browser and installing a teams desktop/mobile application? I have done the usual searches etc, however most of the info seems to be a few years old. A feature comparison table would be helpful if there is a link? Teams opens a popup window hosted on your website, whose sole purpose is to redirect the user to the MS login page for your organisation. The user logs in to their MS account within the popup window. Crafting your website preview. When your website is shared to Teams, the card that is inserted into the selected channel will contain a preview of your website. You can control the behavior of this preview by ensuring the appropriate meta-data is added to the website being shared (the data-href URL). The table below outlines the necessary tags. Click View the site in your desktop app to open it in the Teams desktop app, where it should work fine. Click Go to the website to open the site in a new browser tab outside of Teams. Click Reload this tab to try again. To pull up those options again, just click Reload tab in the top right corner immediately when you realize there's an issue. 1) Get a calendar URL first, login into the Outlook Web App, 2) Go to Groups, and choose the one you want to add calendar 3) Click the calendar icon and go to group calendar, copy the URL. 4) Add a new tab with a Channel in Teams, and select Website, in the URL area add the copied URL, and give it a name.
-->Microsoft Teams apps bring key information, common tools, and trusted processes to where people increasingly gather, learn, and work.
Apps are how you extend Teams to fit your needs. Create something brand new for Teams or integrate an existing app.
What are Teams apps?
Teams apps are a combination of capabilities and entry points. For example, people can chat with your app's bot (capability) in a channel (entry point).
Some apps are simple (send notifications), while others are complex (manage patient records). When planning your app, remember that Teams is a collaboration hub. The best Teams apps help people express themselves and work better together.
Tabs
Get information more conveniently: Sometimes you just need to make things easier to find. Display an important webpage in a tab, which provides a full-screen web experience for static and dynamic content in Teams.
Bots
Turn words into actions: Conversations often result in the need to do something (generate an order, review my code, check ticket status, etc.). A bot can kick off these kinds of workflows right inside Teams.
Messaging extensions
Make it easier to multitask: With messaging extensions, you can quickly share external information in a conversation. You also can act on a message, such as creating a help ticket based on the content of a channel post.
Webhooks
Download Microsoft Teams
Communicate with external apps: Incoming webhooks are a simple way to automatically send notifications from another app to a Teams channel. With outgoing webhooks, message your web service with an @mention.
Microsoft Graph for Teams
Utilize Teams data: The Microsoft Graph API for Teams provides access to information about teams, channels, users, and messages that can help you create or enhance features for your app.
