Getting started with Microsoft Teams
It's easy to get ScrumGenius setup with Microsoft Teams. Add it to your team and hold your first automated standup today to make your workflow more efficient.
ScrumGenius is available in the Microsoft Teams store.
- Only the team leader needs to create an account with ScrumGenius. All other participants do not require an account and can submit answers without one.
- If you do not see ScrumGenius in your store, you will need to contact your IT admin team to request permission to have it added to your store. You can send them the following documentation https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-app-permission-policies. Please contact our support team if you need help with setup.
Adding ScrumGenius to your team
