Integrate Yeastar P-Series Software Edition with Microsoft Teams

The direct integration of Yeastar P-Series Software Edition and Microsoft Teams requires each user to install Yeastar Linkus for Teams on their own Teams client and log in with their extension accounts or Microsoft accounts. After the integration, Teams users can make phone calls to their Linkus contacts within Microsoft Teams directly through the PBX.

This topic gives an example on how an individual account can integrate Yeastar P-Series Software Edition with Microsoft Teams.

      Note: For the device from which you log in most frequently, you can select the option to add it as a trusted device. In this way, you don't have to re-enter an authentication code with this device for the next 180 days.
    3. Click LOG IN.
  3. In the pop-up window, decide whether to allow Yeastar Linkus to send you notifications when receiving Linkus chat messages.

  1. On the login page, click Sign in with Microsoft.

  2. In the pop-up window, log in with your Microsoft account.
  3. In the pop-up window, decide whether to allow Yeastar Linkus to send you notifications when receiving Linkus chat messages.

Result

You can now access Linkus Web Client and make internal or external calls within Microsoft Teams through the PBX.

When you make phone calls in Microsoft Teams, Linkus Web Client will automatically launch a browser tab to initiate the call.

Note: Due to Microsoft's restrictions, you can NOT receive PBX calls directly within Teams. To receive incoming calls, you must be logged into Linkus clients or have phone endpoints registered with your extension.
