edison365 uses the following Microsoft Teams' delegated permissions:- Read and write all groups

Assigning or Creating a Team for an Idea (or Challenge)
Open the Idea (or Challenge) you want to link a team to.
You'll have two options to choose from. Either link to an existing team or create new team.
Once linked, the button turns into a "Go to Team" button which takes you directly to the Teams channel.
Assigning or Creating a Team for a BusinessCase or Project
For BusinessCase and Projects open the Teams tab and select "Link to a Team" in order to go through the same process as above.
Using a Short Link to Integrate Directly in Teams
In this example I have selected the "Support" team with channel "Support Testing." I then created a new website tab at the top of the channel.
Here's an example of a specific Challenge loading as a Teams tab:
Tip: pinning a challenge allows easy access for a team to submit ideas!
Here's an example of my personal page loading as a Teams tab:
Note: Each Challenge and Idea has its own Share Link. To receive a shortlink for the home, discover, or personal please contact the Support team using this form. Make sure to provide the SharePoint site collection the app is hosted on.
In BusinessCase and Projects you have Short Links for each case or project under Management > Properties:
Use this link to pin a specific case or project to the top of your teams channel.
From there, you can then navigate around the app as usual to jump around to other cases and projects.
