Troubleshooting the Microsoft Teams add-on

Here are some tips for troubleshooting the most common questions about the Microsoft Teams add-on.

Teams Status tile does not update user's status

This may be caused by several reasons.

Status is blank
If a user's status in the list is blank, the user's Microsoft Teams username is likely not set in their profile. Check the user's profile settings and verify that the Microsoft Teams username is specified in the designated profile field correctly.
Status is Unknown
If a user's status is Unknown, the user may not be configured properly in Microsoft Teams. Check the user's account in Microsoft Teams.

The Chat the Chat button icon button is not displayed

If the Chat button is not shown, the user's Microsoft Teams username is likely not set. Check the user's profile settings and verify that the Microsoft Teams username is specified in the designated profile field correctly.

@jive is not available in Microsoft Teams
