Microsoft Teams Integration

Microsoft Teams integration lets instructors schedule and manage live classes directly in Testpress using Teams as the video provider. Once connected, students can join classes via a single “Join Class” button regardless of whether Teams or Zoom is used.

Why Integrate Microsoft Teams?

• Seamless scheduling: Choose Teams when creating live classes without juggling multiple platforms.

• Unified student experience: Students don’t need to know which provider is hosting — they just click Join Class.

• Simple setup: Connect your Microsoft 365 account with a one-click authorization.

• More flexibility: Use Zoom and Teams side-by-side as needed.

• You can continue using Zoom or Teams — choose based on your preference per class.

• Instructors don’t need admin-level Microsoft permissions to schedule classes once Teams is connected.
  
  

Troubleshooting Tips

• If the Teams login fails, ensure your Microsoft 365 account has permission to authorize apps.

• Make sure pop-ups are allowed during the authorization step.

• If Teams doesn’t show as an option while scheduling, try reconnecting from Settings.
