17.0 Registering a Microsoft App for Teams

Reference the content in this section to learn how to register a Microsoft app for Teams in the Microsoft Entra admin center. This process involves four main steps: (1) registering a new app, (2) adding an owner, (3) creating a client secret, and (4) adding permissions for Teams meetings. Once that process is complete, you can access the app’s client ID and client secret to configure Microsoft Teams Integration in the GroupWise Administration Console.

To register an app for Teams in the Microsoft Entra admin center:

  1. Log in to Microsoft Entra admin center at https://entra.microsoft.com/.

  2. Expand Applications in the navigation pane, and click App registrations.

  3. Click the New registration tab, and type a name for the app.

  4. Choose the tenant account type, and configure the Redirect URI section as follows:

    • Connection type: Public client/native (mobile & desktop)

    • URI: https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/nativeclient

  5. Click Register.

    When the new application opens, a sub-navigation pane for the app is displayed to the right of the main navigation pane.

  6. In the app navigation pane, click Owners > Add Owners; then, use the Search field to locate and select yourself and any other administrators with an account who will administer the app.

  7. In the app navigation pane, click Certificates & secrets > New client secret and do the following:

    1. Add a description for the secret.

    2. Choose when it expires.

    3. Click Add.

  8. Click API permissions, and then click the Microsoft Graph link.

  9. Locate and set the following “Delegated” permissions (select and click Add permissions):

    Permission Group

  10. Do the following to record the application (client) ID and client secret for configuring Teams Integration in the GroupWise Administration Console:

    1. Click Overview in the app navigation pane and copy and save the Application (client) ID.

    2. Click Certificates & secrets and copy and save the Secret ID for the client secret you created above.
