    • Sign in using your Microsoft 365 admin credentials.

  1. Navigate to App Setup Policies

    • Review the available setup policies or create a new one.

  2. Add the App to a Setup Policy

    • Choose an existing policy to modify or click Add to create a new one.

    • Under the Installed apps section:

      • Click Add apps.

      • Search for the Looply app by name (eg: Task order).

      • Select the app and click Add.

    • (Optional) Under the Pinned apps section:

      • Click Add apps.

      • Search for the app by name and click Add to make it appear in the Teams navigation bar.

      • Adjust the order of pinned apps using the Move up or Move down buttons.

  3. Assign the Policy to Users

    • Go to Users > Manage users.

    • Search for the user or group of users to whom you want to assign the policy.

    • Click the user’s name, and under Policies, click Edit.

    • Assign the desired app setup policy.

    • Bulk Assignment:

      • To assign the policy to multiple users, go to Teams apps > Setup policies, select the policy, and click Assign users.

      • Upload a CSV file containing the list of user email addresses or manually select users.

    • (Alternatively) go to Teams apps > Setup policies > Manager users > Assign to required teams users

  1. Verify Deployment

    1. Ask a test user to log into Teams and verify that the app is pre-installed and, if pinned, visible in the navigation bar.

    2. You can check the app's status in Teams apps > Manage apps or through user activity logs.

FAQs

1) How long does it take for the app to appear?

It may take a few hours for the policy changes to propagate to all assigned users.

2) What if the app is not visible?

· Ensure the app is published in the Manage apps section.

· Verify that the setup policy is correctly assigned to the user or group.

· Get users to signout of teams and sign back in

3) Can I enforce app usage?

Pre-installation does not enforce usage, but pinning the app ensures high visibility.
