idgard® app for Microsoft Teams: Share Boxes via message extension
Sharing Boxes via message extension
The message
extension feature allows users of the idgard® app for Microsoft Teams to
exchange links in chat channels. It makes it possible to share a Box via a Box
link in a chat channel with other group participants in Teams. This can be done
via a general chat channel or a chat channel within an active meeting. However,
this requires that the idgard® app has been assigned to a group in Teams. You
must also be a full license user and have permission to share a Box. Please
contact the administrator of your idgard® account if you do not have the
required permission.
