Microsoft Teams App

Use Blockbrain right inside Microsoft Teams, next to your meetings, chats and channels.

The Blockbrain Teams app brings your Blockbrain assistant, agents and knowledge into Microsoft Teams. Open it from the app bar on the left, or use it as a tab in a channel. With the MS Teams Agent it works with your meetings, chats and channels: it reads meeting transcripts, finds recordings and prepares your follow-ups. It only sees what you can already see in Teams, and it asks before it posts, sends or books anything.

What you can do

Catch up on meetings

Follow up in Teams

What you need

• Microsoft Teams in the desktop app or in your browser, signed in with your work account.

• A Blockbrain account. If Blockbrain asks you to sign in, use your work email.

• The Blockbrain app in Teams. Your IT team adds it for your company.

• A transcript for meeting recaps. Turn on transcription or recording in your meeting. Blockbrain can read the transcripts of meetings you organised.

How you get it

• Your IT team adds Blockbrain to Microsoft Teams. Nothing to install. After that, Blockbrain is in the app bar on the left, and team owners can add it as a tab to their channels.

• You are the admin who sets it up. Follow Teams & Sharepoint Web Component.

Where to find Blockbrain

Step	What to do
Open it	In the Teams app bar on the left, click Blockbrain (your company may call it differently, for example BlockbrainTeamChat). If you don't see it, click View more apps (…) and search for Blockbrain.
Use it in a channel	Open the channel and click the Blockbrain tab at the top. If there is none, a team owner can add it with + (Add a tab).
Pick the MS Teams Agent	Click the agent name at the top, for example In-Sharepoint Agent. Open the Agent tab, search for Teams and choose MS Teams Agent. New chats start with the default agent, so pick it again in each new chat.
Start a new chat	Click the new-chat icon at the top right. Your earlier chats are in the chat list, which opens with the menu icon at the top left.

You stay in control. Blockbrain only sees what you can already see in Teams. Before it posts in a channel, sends a chat message or creates a meeting, it shows an approval card and waits. Choose Allow Once to approve just that step. See Detail shows you the full message first.
