# Microsoft Teams Integration

> Automatically organize files shared in your Microsoft Teams channels

## Overview

The Drive AI integrates with Microsoft Teams to automatically capture and organize files shared across your Teams channels. Important documents shared during conversations are automatically imported and organized in your Drive AI workspace.

## How It Works

Once connected, The Drive AI monitors your Teams channels for shared files:

1. **A file is shared** in a Teams channel or chat
2. **The Drive AI detects** the file automatically
3. **The file is imported** to your workspace
4. **AI organizes** the file into the appropriate folder based on its content

All of this happens in real time—no manual intervention required.

## Connecting Microsoft Teams

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to Integrations">
    Go to **Settings** > **Integrations** > **Microsoft Teams**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect Your Microsoft Account">
    Click **Connect Microsoft Teams** and sign in with your Microsoft account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authorize Access">
    Grant The Drive AI permission to access files shared in your Teams channels. Authentication uses secure OAuth—your Microsoft password is never stored.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Channels">
    Choose which Teams channels The Drive AI should monitor for files.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What Gets Imported

The Drive AI imports files shared in your connected Teams channels:

* **Documents**: PDF, DOCX, DOC, TXT, RTF
* **Spreadsheets**: XLSX, XLS, CSV
* **Presentations**: PPTX, PPT
* **Images**: PNG, JPG, GIF (Premium)

<Note>
  Only files shared in monitored channels are imported. Private chats are not monitored unless you explicitly enable them.
</Note>

## Organization

Imported Teams files are organized based on:

| Factor              | Example                                    |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| **Content**         | Invoice detected → Finance folder          |
| **Channel context** | Shared in Engineering → Engineering folder |
| **File type**       | Presentation → relevant project folder     |

The AI uses both the file content and the Teams channel context to determine the best location for each file.
