Teams Bot (Setup)

Install the Odeus App in Microsoft Teams and use your models and Agents directly in Teams

Prerequisites

This guide is for Odeus administrators. If you're a user looking to set up the Teams Bot, share this page with your workspace admin. In addition to Odeus admin rights, you'll also need:

1. Admin access to the Teams Admin Center
2. Azure admin rights

Only members of a Odeus workspace can chat with the Teams Bot. Make sure all intended users are added to your Odeus workspace before they try to use the bot in Teams.

Step 1: Locate Odeus Application

In the Teams Admin Center, navigate to Teams apps > Manage apps and search for "Odeus".

Step 2: Configure App Availability Settings

1. Click on the Odeus application to open its settings
2. In the Users and groups tab, click Edit availability to configure who can access the app (organization-wide, specific groups, or blocked)

Step 3: Review App Permissions

1. Navigate to the Permissions tab
2. Have your Azure admin consent to the required permissions

Teams admins are not necessarily Azure admins. Make sure the person with Azure admin rights completes this step.

Step 4: Configure App Setup Policies

1. Navigate to Teams apps > Setup policies
2. Select Global (Org-wide default) (or your preferred policy)
3. In the Installed apps section, click Add apps

Pro tip: Enable User pinning so users can pin the Odeus app to their Teams sidebar for quick access.

Step 5: Add Your App to the Setup Policy

1. Search for "odeus" and select the application
2. Click Add
3. (Optional) Add Odeus to Pinned apps for easy access
4. Click Save

Step 6: Connect Your Odeus Workspace

1. Go to your workspace integration settings in Odeus
2. Find the Microsoft Teams Bot section and enable the integration
3. Repeat this step for any additional Odeus workspaces you want to make available in Teams

You need admin access to your Odeus workspace to complete this step. Each workspace that should be available in the Teams Bot must be connected separately.

Done! Now all users in your workspace can use the Odeus app in private Chat or in your Teams Channel by tagging @Odeus. For a detailed guide on how to use the Odeus app in Teams, please refer to the Odeus Teams Bot User Guide.
