If yes, we are very happy to tell that you can now setup our newest integration! You will now be able to set up daily broadcasts, notify and accept absence request from absence.io directly via Teams! ### Let's get started ### Step 1: Setting up the integration in your abence.io account As an Owner/Admin/ HR please go to Settings -> Integrations and enable the Office 365 Teams bot ![](https://info.absence.io/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/15646047980956-1.png)   ### Step 2: Create Teams Connection via Token Create a Teams **company** connection token. Everyone can now go to its Profile -> Integrations and enable here the Office 365 Teams bot. Afterwards create a **personal connection token** and copy it (this token is used to connect to the teams app).  A user token can only be connected once, You can create a new token if you need to reconnect. ![](https://info.absence.io/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/11945379014684-1.png)     ### Step 3: Integrate absence.io into your MS Teams 1.
