What does the Teams Integration do?

With the Teams Integration, you can receive notifications about Applause, Calendar Status updates, and Celebrations directly in Teams. Note: This integration is only available on our Essential and Pro Plans.

Applause (Peer Recognition)

Any Applause that has been added in Pingboard will appear in the Teams Channel you designated about five minutes after it has been posted in Pingboard. Anyone who is in the Teams Channel that has been configured to receive Pingboard Applause will see a notification showing who has received Applause, the text in the Applause message, and who gave the Applause.

Calendar Statuses
