The Miro app for Microsoft Teams brings the power of the infinite whiteboard to the Teams space to enable collaboration in one seamless experience. As soon as you install the Miro app in Microsoft Teams, you can access Miro boards across your entire workspace.
This guide can be used by Microsoft Teams and Miro Admins to enable the experience for their users.
⚠️ Microsoft Admins may need to enable the Miro app within the 3rd party apps catalogue for Teams before users can install the integration. Settings can vary per account. More information on how to manage apps in Microsoft Teams can be found here.
⚠️ For Enterprise customers who are leveraging our advanced app management features, the Miro app may need to be allowed by the Admin both on the Miro side and on the Microsoft side in order to be used. More information can be found here.
