These tips should help users get the most out of Teams.

Define an urgent message

When in a chat, click the exclamation point under "Write a new message" and choose "Urgent" from the message options menu. It's best used sparingly, because when you create an urgent message, its recipients will receive a notification that it exists every 2 minutes for XNUMX minutes; it can become annoying if overused.

Make an announcement

Another way to make posts stand out is to turn them into ads. Tap the Format (pen) icon and choose Announcement from the drop-down menu for the new chat you are about to view. You can write a title and add a background image or a colorful background to make your ad stand out.

Team tag to save time

Team leaders can let team members assign specific tags to other members. So you could have a team of a hundred, with 5 managers; each of them can be tagged with @manager; Or you could have 2 people working XNUMX separate shifts (@dayshift, @nightshift). Once tagged, you and any other team member can send a message or channel post to any and all members of those sets via tags.

Use titles, that's what they're for

When things are busy, it's easy to lose essential conversations in a sea of ​​discussions. Channels often carry thousands and thousands of conversations, so it's worth taking the time to make each chat easier to locate by giving each one a specific name: Project X, Business Agility, Strategy from remote work or a salary increase, quite fair, to give an example. Headlines not only make conversations easy to find, but they are also searchable. To name a discussion:

pin these cats

Get organized by tapping the ellipses next to your most essential channel names and choosing Pin. These channels will now appear in the pinned section at the top of your list, instead of the default order that channels appear in (based on when you added or created them). Pinned channels can also be shuffled: click and hold the channel name in the list and drag it across that section until it's where you want it. (You can also hide irrelevant channels by tapping the ellipsis and choosing Hide.)

Forward an email to Teams

Teams works well with email, with tools to forward any email to a Teams channel. Open Teams, tap the ellipsis to the right of a channel name, then choose "Get an email address." This will create an email address for that channel that you can use to forward items. It's as simple as using the Share to Teams button in Outlook or creating a shortcut to Zapier in Gmail, but Email lets you automate it. If you use Apple Mail, you can create a rule to automatically send conversations to your team chat: Open Mail Preferences > Rules, Add Rule, and give it a name. You can set up a rule with multiple requirements, so if an incoming message is from a specific person and also has a specific subject line, or involves a combination of other requirements, the message is automatically forwarded to your Teams chat . Or simply set this chat as a contact and manually forward the emails. This should be really useful if you want to keep your team up to date.

Bring external associates to your team

COVID-XNUMX has proven the relevance of working in close cooperation with others: employees, outside employees, distributors, partners, logistics and service customers all have something to contribute. Therefore, it makes sense to invite them to join in Teams. You can give anyone (internal or external) guest access that lets you include them in discussions of specific projects and tag them in the appropriate channels to make sure everyone is in the know.

Record meetings and team calls

Microsoft lets business users record Teams meetings and group calls in the cloud through Microsoft Stream. This is useful throughout essential conversations or long presentations, although there are some requirements and restrictions as explained here.

Learn the keyboard small groups

Always and at all times it is useful to learn the keyboard small groups. The first 3 you'll need include: Press R to reply to a chat, Option-A to attach a file to a message, and Option-/ to see any and all free keyboard clusters. You can explore each and every free gear cluster here.

use do not disturb

Tap your profile in Teams to set your status to Do Not Disturb so you can stay focused and get to work. This is still extremely satisfying. Asynchronous work means that most things can wait a while. Follow me on Twitter or join me on AppleHolic's bar & grill sets and Apple Discussions on MeWe.
