We’re excited to share that you can now connect Microsoft Teams with Media Shield Calendars! This integration simplifies scheduling by automatically generating unique Teams meeting links for each booking. Here's a simple guide to get started:

Step 1: Connect Your Microsoft Teams Account

1. Go to your Calendar Settings:

   Navigate to Calendars > Calendar Settings > Connections in your Media Shield account.

2. Find the Video Conferencing Tab:
   Look for the Video Conferencing section in the settings.

Things to Remember

• Work or School Accounts Only: Personal Microsoft Teams accounts cannot be used.

• Separate Integration Needed: Connecting Outlook doesn’t automatically link Microsoft Teams. Make sure to connect it under the Video Conferencing tab.

• Link Your Outlook Calendar: If you want your appointments to appear on Outlook, ensure your desired calendar is connected and selected.

• One Integration Per Subaccount: Each user can link only one Microsoft Teams account per Media Shield subaccount.

• Supported Calendars: Microsoft Teams works with Personal Booking, Round Robin, Service Calendar, and Collective Calendar.

With this integration, managing your meetings is smoother than ever!
