Updated over a week ago

Integrate Wooclap directly into Microsoft Teams to dynamize your meetings. 

The Wooclap add-in in Microsoft Teams is available for all Wooclap users, but they will need a paid MS Teams licence. Attendees will be asked to log into their Microsoft account the first time they participate.

Install Wooclap in Microsoft Teams

In Microsoft Teams, go to Apps, and search Wooclap. Open the app and choose the team and the channel in which you want to start using Wooclap.

Some organisations restrict the use of third-party apps on Microsoft Teams. You will have to ask an administrator of your organisation to unlock the access to Wooclap.

Add your Wooclap event via your Microsoft Teams calendar

You can now add a Wooclap event when scheduling a new meeting in your Microsoft Teams calendar. Note that the meeting invitation has to be sent out to add a Wooclap event.

Once you’ve created your meeting, click back on it and select ✏️ Edit.

Click on the Apps icon at the top of your meeting, then select Wooclap.

You can either create a new Wooclap event within Microsoft Teams or select a previously created Wooclap event

During the meeting

First, open your Wooclap event on a web page. Once your Teams meeting is launched, share the window where your Wooclap event is displayed by clicking on the Share content button in the top right corner.

☝️ The window sharing feature is specific to the Microsoft Teams application and is not available on the web version.

Participants’view during a live session

Once your attendees have joined your Teams meeting and you have shared your screen, all participants need to click on the “W” icon in the top of their screen. A side tab will open, allowing them to answer the questions.

Participants can send their answers directly via this tab, without leaving the Teams meeting.

☝️ When you don't display a question or the connection slide, any participant connecting to your event will see the waiting message Raise your head, there's no vote in progress at the moment. You will be notified when a vote is started.

Asynchronous sessions with self-paced questionnaires

You can dedicate a time slot in your Teams calendar for your attendees to answer a self-paced questionnaire. Your attendees can access the event directly from the meeting tab in their calendar.

To access the questionnaire, participants must open the invitation window on feel screen. They can they click on the Wooclap event present in the invite and will be able to answer the questionnaire, directly from the new pop-up window.

☝️ When incorporating a Wooclap event into a Teams meeting, we recommend setting the meeting options beforehand so that only the meeting organiser can present.

Add your Wooclap event via your Microsoft Teams team

When you add a tab to a team and then a channel, you will find Wooclap in the list of available apps. Click on the Wooclap icon to create or insert an event.

Same as in meeting events, you can either create a new Wooclap event within Microsoft Teams or select a previously created Wooclap event

All event settings, such as the Message Wall and the I am confused button, work the same within the Microsoft Teams integration.
