Microsoft Teams teams and channels are mapped in One Identity Manager. A team groups Microsoft Teams users together. A team is linked to an Exchange Online Office 365 group. All members of the Office 365 group are members of the team. The members of a team cab use the team's channels. Standard channels are available to all the team's members. Private channels are only available to certain team members. Team members that are not invited to join a private channel cannot see the channel.
In order for users to use Microsoft Teams, you need a Microsoft Teams service plan. For more information about Microsoft Teams, see the Microsoft Teams documentation from Microsoft.
NOTE: The Microsoft Teams Module module must be installed as a prerequisite for managing Microsoft Teams in One Identity Manager For more information about installing, see the One Identity Manager Installation Guide.
The Azure Active Directory connector has the task of synchronizing Microsoft Teams. The Azure Active Directory connector is installed on a synchronization server. The synchronization server ensures the comparison of data between the One Identity Manager database and Microsoft Teams.
The Azure Active Directory is part of the Azure Active Directory Module. Installing the Microsoft Teams Module provide synchronization templates for Microsoft Teams. The Azure Active Directory connector uses the Microsoft Graph API for accessing Microsoft Teams.
Figure 1: Architecture for synchronization
NOTE: To access Microsoft Teams data, the Azure Active Directory tenant and the Exchange Online organization must by synchronized.
