Authorize Opine to connect to Teams

You must have the necessary permissions to grant admin consent to the Opine Teams application because it processes messages without a user present. You may need to ask someone with administrative authority to authorize the integration for your organization.

On the authorization screen you’ll be asked to grant permissions to Opine to access your Teams. Click Accept to grant Opine access.

The following permissions are requested by the Opine app during authorization:

  • User.Read: Sign in and read user profile.

  • User.ReadBasic.All: Read all users' basic profiles.

  • Team.ReadBasic.All: Get a list of all teams. Only teams you select will be used to list channels.

  • Channel.ReadBasic.All: Read the names and descriptions of all channels. Only channels of selected Teams are presented for association to deals.

  • ChannelMessage.Read.All: Read all channel messages. Only messages in channels associated to deals are read.

  • OnlineMeetings.Read.All: Read online meeting details. Only meetings having transcripts are read, only those that are associated with analyzed deals.

  • OnlineMeetingArtifact.Read.All: Read online meeting artifacts.

  • OnlineMeetingTranscript.Read.All: Read all transcripts of online meetings.

Important: Online meeting transcript access requires an application access policy is configured in the Microsoft tenant to grant the Opine application permission to read users' transcripts. Only the user's included in the access policy are accessible to Opine. It is possible to grant access to all users (global grant). Microsoft's documentation is the best source for details on completing this configuration.

Connect your customer channels to each deal

Opine supports two types of Slack channels for ingestion:

  1. Customer Channel: Use this for channels your customers are added to, to capture direct communications between you and your customers.

  2. Internal Channel: Use this for channels your internal team uses for discussions about the deal, providing critical internal context.

We recommend that you connect both channels to Opine.
