Setting up the Microsoft 365 App

Install the deskONE Microsoft 365 App in your organizational app-store to enable your employees to use deskONE directly inside Teams, Outlook and the Office App.


Microsoft provides various ways for publishing an app in your organizational app-store. This documentation focuses on the most basic way. Please note that you need Microsoft Teams administration privileges to do this.

If you do not have Microsoft Teams administration privileges you can either:

  1. (If possible) submit the app package to your system administrator for their approval.
  2. Or you can directly send him the app package for publishing.

For detailed information on managing apps, please refer to the official Microsoft documentation.


Installation of the Microsoft 365 app package

  1. Download the app package (zip file) from deskONE.
  2. Open the Microsoft Teams Admin Center to manage your apps.
  3. Here you can upload a new app - follow the instructions.
  4. You have to upload the entire zip file, which was downloaded before.
  5. The deskONE app is now added to your organizational app-store and your employees will find it in the Microsoft applications in the category “Built for your org”.

What’s next?
