How to set Microsoft Teams Permissions in the Teams Admin Center

Before you can start using Coffee Breaks within your organization, you need to configure app availability in the Microsoft Teams Admin Center so that every user can access the app.


This article is for Microsoft Teams admins. Without access to the Microsoft Teams Admin Center you can't make these changes.


‼️ Please note that all changes can take up to 24 hours to take effect in Microsoft Teams
