By using templates, the actual creation of teams can also be delegated. At the same time, it is ensured that the teams comply with the specifications of the templates. The templates are managed via the &#8220;Teams \\ Team templates&#8221; area.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23027\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23027\" class=\"imgshadow wp-image-23027 size-large\" title=\"Team templates\" src=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-01_Team-templates-1024x487.jpg\" alt=\"Team templates\" width=\"1024\" height=\"487\" srcset=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-01_Team-templates-1024x487.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-01_Team-templates-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-01_Team-templates-768x365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-01_Team-templates.jpg 1455w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-23027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Team templates help to keep order when creating teams.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_2_Create_your_own_team_templates\"><\/span>Tip 2: Create your own team templates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In many cases, of course, the specifications of the Microsoft Teams templates are not sufficient and you have to create your own templates. For this purpose, the menu item &#8220;Add&#8221; is available in the team templates. Here, three options are available to simplify the creation of templates. First, templates can be created based on existing teams or based on existing team templates. But also the creation of an empty template is possible at this point. These templates can in turn be used when creating your own teams.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23030\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23030\" class=\"imgshadow wp-image-23030 size-large\" title=\"Create your own team template\" src=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-02_Create-your-own-template-1024x358.jpg\" alt=\"Create your own team template\" width=\"1024\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-02_Create-your-own-template-1024x358.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-02_Create-your-own-template-300x105.jpg 300w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-02_Create-your-own-template-768x269.jpg 768w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Teams-tips-02_Create-your-own-template.jpg 1154w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-23030\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Create a new team template based on existing teams or existing team templates.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_3_Delete_teams_that_are_no_longer_needed\"><\/span>Tip 3: Delete teams that are no longer needed<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Teams that are no longer necessary should be deleted from the environment. This significantly reduces the effort required for administration, data backup and data protection. Data and documents can also be stored in Teams. If no one uses this data anymore, it is also not necessary to continue storing it in the team. In the case of personal data, the GDPR also plays an important role here.<\/p>\n<p>Many teams are only needed for a certain time anyway and can be deleted afterwards. For this purpose, admins should create a reminder and delete the teams in this case. When using <a href=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/en\/teamspace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my-IAM TeamSpace<\/a> these tasks can be automated. Already during creation, the person in charge can specify that the team can be automatically deleted after some time. In this case, admins no longer have to worry about the deletion.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23056\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23056\" class=\"imgshadow wp-image-23056 size-large\" title=\"Manage teams and channels\" src=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-03_Manage-teams_Delete-1024x440.jpg\" alt=\"Manage teams and channels\" width=\"1024\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-03_Manage-teams_Delete-1024x440.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-03_Manage-teams_Delete-300x129.jpg 300w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-03_Manage-teams_Delete-768x330.jpg 768w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-03_Manage-teams_Delete.jpg 1175w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-23056\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Teams that are no longer needed should be deleted. Better is an automatism. However, this requires additional solutions such as my-IAM TeamSpace.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_4_Set_the_right_security_settings_for_Teams\"><\/span>Tip 4: Set the right security settings for Teams<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Of course, not every user should be able to access every team. Therefore, there are numerous security settings in Microsoft Teams that admins can specify centrally and team owners can also customize. The settings can be found in the Teams options. In addition, there is the option to hide the visibility of teams or to control it in such a way that certain users can see various teams but are not granted access until a team owner authorizes them to do so. The assignment of permissions should therefore be well planned.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, Teams is rather confusing at this point and offers various setting options. Here, too, additional tools such as <a href=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/en\/teamspace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my-IAM TeamSpace<\/a> help to control the rights more easily. To do this, the service can provide a security controller (&#8220;slider&#8221;) when teams are created. Behind the slider is a flexibly customizable mechanism that automates and correctly sets the individual rights.<\/p>\n<p>When using <a href=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/en\/teamspace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my-IAM TeamSpace<\/a>, admins can assign various security and permission levels for this purpose, as well as visibility settings. Based on these defaults, users can assign consistent permissions by simply using the security control sliders. This also makes it easier for users to complete the creation of teams more quickly. Security options can be defined behind the security controllers, making them consistent and easier to implement.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23060\" style=\"width: 590px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23060\" class=\"imgshadow wp-image-23060 size-full\" title=\"Edit team: Member permissions\" src=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-04_Permissions.jpg\" alt=\"Edit team: Member permissions\" width=\"580\" height=\"682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-04_Permissions.jpg 580w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-04_Permissions-255x300.jpg 255w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-23060\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Permission settings can be found in various places in the Teams Admin Center and the Teams client. This can quickly become confusing.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_5_Follow_naming_conventions\"><\/span>Tip 5: Follow naming conventions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Especially when using many teams, strict attention should be paid to ensuring that the names of the teams correspond to conventions. This allows teams to be assigned more quickly and also to be found more quickly by users and admins and managed much better. Unfortunately, the naming conventions must be observed manually.<\/p>\n<p>There are no options in the Teams Admin Center to control team naming, not even via team templates. Again, an ideal complement to Microsoft Teams is the use of <a href=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/en\/teamspace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my-IAM TeamSpace<\/a>. Here, naming conventions can also be specified and implemented by users much more easily than with team templates or regulations.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23064\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23064\" class=\"wp-image-23064 size-large\" title=\"Naming conventions with my-IAM TeamSpace\" src=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-05_Select-branch-from-drop-down-list_my-IAM-TeamSpace-1024x510.png\" alt=\"Naming conventions with my-IAM TeamSpace\" width=\"1024\" height=\"510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-05_Select-branch-from-drop-down-list_my-IAM-TeamSpace-1024x510.png 1024w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-05_Select-branch-from-drop-down-list_my-IAM-TeamSpace-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-05_Select-branch-from-drop-down-list_my-IAM-TeamSpace-768x382.png 768w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-05_Select-branch-from-drop-down-list_my-IAM-TeamSpace-1536x764.png 1536w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-05_Select-branch-from-drop-down-list_my-IAM-TeamSpace-2048x1019.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-23064\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Naming conventions play an important role the more teams there are.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_6_Relieve_IT_department_and_engage_users_in_managing_teams\"><\/span>Tip 6: Relieve IT department and engage users in managing teams<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The previous tips have already shown how important it is to also involve users in the management of Teams. Users ultimately work with the teams and if IT staff have to take over tasks for all changes to teams, the IT department will quickly become overloaded.<\/p>\n<p>However, if users are allowed to create teams themselves without any specifications, this in turn results in uncontrolled growth, orphaned teams or duplicate teams where no one knows where to find which information. As a result, the IT department loses control, and compliance is almost impossible to maintain. This in turn results in a great deal of effort that is necessary to bring order back into the chaos.<\/p>\n<p>Through a delegation of permissions and an approval workflow, users can create teams themselves, but their final creation must first be approved by a responsible person in the company. Unfortunately, Teams is not able to define such an approval workflow for this purpose. However, with tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/en\/teamspace\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">my-IAM TeamSpace<\/a>, this is not a problem either.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_22724\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22724\" class=\"wp-image-22724\" title=\"Approval workflows with my-IAM TeamSpace\" src=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Approval-workflow_Creation-of-team_my-IAM-TeamSpace-300x229.png\" alt=\"Approval workflows with my-IAM TeamSpace\" width=\"400\" height=\"306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Approval-workflow_Creation-of-team_my-IAM-TeamSpace-300x229.png 300w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Approval-workflow_Creation-of-team_my-IAM-TeamSpace-1024x783.png 1024w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Approval-workflow_Creation-of-team_my-IAM-TeamSpace-768x587.png 768w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Approval-workflow_Creation-of-team_my-IAM-TeamSpace.png 1144w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-22724\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Approval workflows can greatly simplify team creation.<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_7_Use_policies_and_limit_permissions\"><\/span>Tip 7: Use policies and limit permissions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In the Teams Admin Center, &#8220;Teams Policies&#8221; provides options for defining your own policies, which can be used to implement a variety of security options.

These can be seen in the Teams client with the users. The individual apps that are available in Teams can be found in the Teams Admin Center via the &#8220;Teams apps&#8221; section. Which apps are allowed at all is set in &#8220;Manage apps&#8221;.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_23075\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23075\" class=\"imgshadow wp-image-23075 size-large\" title=\"Manage Teams apps\" src=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-08_Manage-apps-1024x542.png\" alt=\"Manage Teams apps\" width=\"1024\" height=\"542\" srcset=\"https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-08_Manage-apps-1024x542.png 1024w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-08_Manage-apps-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-08_Manage-apps-768x407.png 768w, https:\/\/my-iam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Teams-tips-08_Manage-apps.png 1078w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-23075\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Manage the apps that are available in Teams.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The order of these apps can in turn be defined in &#8220;Setup Guidelines&#8221; in the &#8220;App Setup Guidelines&#8221;.
