# Microsoft Teams

> Microsoft Teams is not connected to StellarFirm yet. What to use meanwhile to hand work to your assistants, and how to ask for Teams.

Status: Coming soon

Many companies hand out work in Microsoft Teams. StellarFirm cannot read or post in Teams yet, so your assistants do not see messages there and cannot ask you to approve anything in a Teams chat.

> [!SOON]
> Microsoft Teams is Coming soon. There is no Teams connection to set up today, and no token to create. Do not paste Microsoft credentials anywhere in StellarFirm for it.

## What to use meanwhile

| Instead of Teams | What you do | Status |
| --- | --- | --- |
| StellarFirm chat | Write the goal at [stellarfirm.ai/app](https://stellarfirm.ai/app) or in the desktop app, and answer requests on the [Approvals page](https://stellarfirm.ai/app/approvals) | Available |
| Slack | Mention the StellarFirm app in a thread and approve there | [Coming soon](/docs/integrations/slack) |
| Telegram or Discord | Short messages and approvals from your phone or your own server | [Coming soon](/docs/integrations/telegram) |

## Hand over work that started in Teams

When a request reaches you in Teams, bring the important part to your assistants yourself:

1. Copy the request, without passwords, tokens, or personal data your assistants do not need.
2. Paste it into the StellarFirm chat and name the assistant, for example "Coder,".
3. Say what done looks like and where the result goes, such as "open a pull request for review".
4. Post the result back in Teams yourself when it is ready. Your assistants cannot post there.

```prompt title="Brief from a Teams thread"
Coder, a teammate asked for this in Teams: [paste the request]. In [repository], make the change, run the tests, and open a pull request for review once I Approve. Give me a two-line summary I can post back.
```

## Ask for Teams

Requests decide what StellarFirm connects next. In the app, open **Integrations** and choose **Ask for an integration**, then write "Microsoft Teams" and how your company would use it.

## Good to know

- [Outlook](/docs/integrations/outlook) covers Microsoft mail and is Coming soon too. It does not cover Teams chats.
- Everything that sends, deploys, charges, publishes, or creates waits for your Approve, wherever you hand the work over. See [approvals](/docs/ceo/approvals).
- [Delegate work](/docs/ceo/delegate-work) compares every place you can hand work to your assistants.
