Microsoft Teams is a great new tool that is available through your Office 365 subscription. Or, it’s free if you aren’t even an Office 365 customer. Microsoft Teams is a collaboration tool that provides a hub for teamwork where you can work around your content. Microsoft Teams provides a means to communicate through chats and online meetings with your colleagues both inside and outside of your organization (if external access is turned on). While you can use it free, you’ll eventually want or need a subscription to Office 365 to schedule meetings and get a more robust collaborative experience.

After you’ve made the decision to leverage the KnowledgeWave Learning Site (KLS) to assist with your user adoption of Office 365 you may want to add a custom KnowledgeWave tile to your Office 365 App Launcher.

There are two ways an Office 365 tile can function. If you are hooked up to use Single Sign-on (SSO) with KLS, users clicking the tile will seamlessly pass to KLS as authorized users. They will not have a separate KLS password. SSO clients will add this tile as part of their setup process with your success manager.

If you have not yet implemented SSO this post will show you step-by-step how to accomplish this task. Please note that you need to be an Office 365 Admin to add custom tiles. Since SSO is not part of this process the tile will link to the KLS member area, and users will still need to enter their KLS-specific  password.
