SightCall for Microsoft Teams allows an Agent to send a SightCall session link to a Guest from within Teams. The Agent can choose one of their use cases to generate the session link.  If the tenant has multiple use cases (scenarios), they will be accessible in SightCall for Microsoft Teams.  This integration is paired with a SightCall tenant where each Microsoft Teams SightCall package is associated with only one SightCall tenant.

Requirements

You need admin user with Full access on https://admin.sightcall.com, and the Directory (tenant) ID for your organization’s Microsoft Azure portal.  

Register your SightCall package

To register the SightCall package, you need the Azure Directory ID. The Directory ID is used in the SightCall package activation.

Locating your Microsoft Tenant ID / Azure Directory (tenant) ID.

  5. Click Save to complete the registration.

NOTES:

  1. Users / Agents must have the same email address used for both Microsoft Teams and the SightCall app.
  2. With Autoprovisioning in Teams checked , when a user attempts to use the Teams integration for the first time, they are prompted to sign on to SightCall.  If they do not have an account on the tenant, auto-provisioning causes the tenant to automatically create a new agent account. The new agent receives an email helping them create an account.
  3. If Autoprovisioning in Teams is not checked, adding a new User / Agent account in your SightCall tenant needs to be done manually (before it can be used with the Microsoft Teams integration) by going to https://admin.sightcall.com, select Users, add your agent with the same email that they will use for Microsoft Teams, associate a use case for the newly created user, and finally Save the changes.
