Microsoft Teams

Available from connector 2.112.

What Claude can do

• Read chats and their messages
• Read teams, channels and their messages
• Read online meetings and their transcripts

Read-only: no message is sent. Work or school account only.

Everything the service returns is coded before it reaches Claude.

Before you start

• A Microsoft account — work or school.
• In some organisations an administrator must consent the first time. If the Microsoft page says “Need admin approval”, forward that page to them.

Set up

1. Hidden Tokens dashboard → Connectors.
2. On the Microsoft Teams row, click Enable.
3. Click Sign in: the screen shows a code and an Open the page button.
4. On the Microsoft page, enter the code, choose your account and accept. Microsoft only asks for this connector’s permissions.
5. Click Test. The status turns to “Ready”.

Each Microsoft connector (Outlook, OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams) has its own sign-in: enabling a second one asks you to sign in again, and removing one leaves the others untouched.

Try it in Claude

Summarise this week’s messages in the General channel.

Claude should use a teams__… tool and answer with codes. To get the real values back in a text, ask Hidden Tokens to decode it: they come back on your computer, not in the chat.

Switch off the original connector

In Claude, Settings → Connectors and Extensions: switch off Microsoft Teams / Microsoft 365. Otherwise the AI can go through it, in clear.

Limits

• Read-only: no message is sent. Work or school account only.
• Images and binary attachments are not passed to Claude: a pixel cannot be coded.
• Not yet tried with a real account, nor on Windows (9 November 2026).
