Microsoft Teams & Badgr Integration Guide
What is the Microsoft Teams & Badgr Integration?
The Microsoft Teams & Badgr integration was designed by a Microsoft partner to enable the awarding of a badge directly through the MS Teams app, rather than doing so via the Badgr platform. This means that a company can create and/or use a single issuer that can be integrated into an MS Team's app so that members can award badges to other members easily without leaving MS Teams.
Once integrated MS Team group members will be able to select and award badges to other group members. Members access the same predesignated Issuer and badges that have been associated with the MS Teams account. Depending on your role, you may or may not be able to create badges. Please check with your IT administrator if you have questions about your role or ability to create badges.
There is an upcoming revision to the deployment guide to provide clarity. If your issuer is on our Canada, Europe, or Australian server please let us know when sending in your email request, as part of Step 1, detailed in the deployment guide. Otherwise, you will be connected to the US Badgr server by default.
The guide will direct you on how to collect and utilize the necessary information to complete the integration.
Please note: The app must be installed on the group in teams where you intend to award badges. We hope you enjoy using the Badgr Integration for Microsoft Teams. If you encounter any issues or have any questions, please contact
