The Microsoft Teams integration brings the full Kadence experience into Teams, allowing employees to check schedules, book spaces, and receive booking notifications—without ever leaving the Teams interface.

The integration also allows Kadence to send direct messages to your users to let them know their booking has started and it’s time to check in.


Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure:

  • You are a Global Admin in Kadence

  • You have admin access to the Microsoft Entra Admin Center, or assistance from your Entra admin


Step 1: Find Your Microsoft Tenant ID

To complete the setup, you’ll need your Microsoft Tenant ID.

  1. Go to Identity > Overview

  2. Under Tenant Information, locate and copy your Tenant ID

    Microsoft Tenant ID

Step 2: Enable the Integration in Kadence

Once you have your Tenant ID:

  1. Log in to Kadence

  2. Navigate to Settings > Integrations

  3. Under Microsoft Teams, paste your Microsoft Tenant ID into the field

The following Microsoft articles may also be useful for customising your policy further:


Microsoft Entra Permissions for Teams

The Kadence Teams app requires permission to send messages and interact with users. These permissions must be granted by an Entra admin.

To grant permissions:

  1. Log into entra.microsoft.com as an admin

  2. Go to Enterprise Applications

  3. Find and open the Kadence Bot application

  4. Click "Grant admin consent for [Your Organization]"

    Grant Admin Consent for Kadence Bot

Once this is done, Kadence will be able to send Teams notifications to your users.


Troubleshooting

If users aren't receiving messages:

  • Ensure the Tenant ID in Kadence matches Entra

  • Confirm the Kadence app has been installed in Teams

  • Verify admin consent was granted to the Kadence Bot
