## Teams Automation

Microsoft Teams grows fast in most organizations. Teams are created quickly, membership changes constantly and external collaboration expands over time. Without automation, this leads to clutter, rising effort and operational risk.

Teams Automation streamlines how Teams are created, managed and retired. It combines structured provisioning, lifecycle automation and collaboration controls into a scalable operating model for Microsoft Teams.

## What you gain

- Faster and standardized team creation
- Automated ownership and membership management
- Clean lifecycle from creation to archival or deletion
- Controlled external collaboration
- Reduced operational effort for IT and platform teams

---

## Standardized team creation

Teams are created through request-driven workflows instead of uncontrolled self-service. Naming conventions, ownership rules and templates are enforced automatically.

Teams are provisioned with predefined channels, apps, tabs and settings, so every team starts productive from day one.

---

## Automated ownership and membership

Owners, members and guests are assigned automatically based on business rules. Missing or inactive owners are detected early and ownership is reassigned when needed.

Membership adapts as users join, change roles or leave the organization, which removes manual administration.

---

## Team lifecycle automation

Teams Automation manages the full lifecycle of a team. Inactive or unused teams are detected, owners are notified and actions are taken based on defined timelines.

Teams can be archived or removed automatically to prevent long-term clutter.

---

## External collaboration control

Guest access is monitored continuously. Expired or inactive guests are removed automatically and external collaboration can require approval.

This keeps collaboration open while reducing security and compliance risk.

---

## Channel and collaboration hygiene

Unused or abandoned channels are detected and cleaned up. Channel naming standards and channel types can be enforced to maintain structure and usability.

This prevents channel sprawl and keeps teams easy to navigate.

---

## App and integration control

Installed apps, bots and connectors are inventoried automatically. Approval workflows control which apps can be added and unauthorized apps can be removed.

Usage and risk visibility help keep Teams secure and compliant.

---

## Built for scale

Teams Automation integrates with Microsoft Graph, Entra ID and compliance services. Automation logic is customer-owned, extensible and adaptable to business needs.

- No manual cleanup cycles
- No uncontrolled growth
- No vendor lock-in

---

Collaboration scales only with automation.  
Teams Automation keeps Microsoft Teams efficient and under control.
