Introduction

Logikcull's integration with Microsoft Teams allows you to quickly and easily upload your organization's Teams data for search, review, and production.

Teams messages from channels, DMs, and group chats are automatically indexed and rendered into a readable, searchable, native-style format. Leverage Logikcullโ€™s available Chat Filters to search Teams uploads by conversation, DM participants, sender, and reactions - including emojis. ๐Ÿฑ

*Microsoft Teams Cloud Uploads are available on Subscription plans.

Setting Up the Integration

This integration uses application-based authentication to access your company's Teams data. The initial setup must be completed by an Account Admin or the Account Owner. Once complete, any users with the necessary permissions may use the Teams integration.
