Advanced

Verify the app is installed in your Microsoft Teams scope (personal / team / chat). If you installed it for personal only and are trying to use it in a team channel, install it again with the team scope.Also confirm the bot is allowed in your channel — some org policies restrict bot interactions in specific channels.
Your Microsoft Teams admin has not enabled custom app uploads for your tenant. Send them the link to the Microsoft Teams admin center setup policies and ask them to enable Upload custom apps on your setup policy. Changes may take up to 24 hours to take effect.

Also be sure to check that the button is toggled to ‘on’ in your settings once it is located by your admin.
Set a default repository in your Tembo workspace settings, or specify the repository directly in your message (for example: owner/repo).
When a new version of the Tembo Microsoft Teams package is released, download the latest .zip and repeat the upload steps. Microsoft Teams will detect it as an update rather than a new install as long as the app ID is unchanged.
Tembo for Microsoft Teams is not currently certified for GCC High, DoD, or 21Vianet clouds. If your organization needs Tembo in one of these environments, contact us.
