Working with Teams

This feature applies to harmon.ie 365 only.

harmon.ie 365 (Classic) creates a bridge between Outlook and Teams, allowing you to easily save emails, attachments and documents to Teams, view and organize your Teams files (including files shared in chats and meetings), share Teams files by email, and share documents to Teams to discuss them with your colleagues. To learn more, read Bridge Teams and Outlook.

Outlook-Teams integration requires working with Microsoft 365 and requires M365 admin consent.

Share file to Teams

To upload emails, attachments, and documents to a channel’s Files location:

  1. Open All Locations > Teams and expand the Team to which you want to publish the email.
  2. Drag email(s), attachments(s), or document(s) and drop them on a channel. The files are uploaded to the channel’s Files location.
  3. If prompted, use the Properties window to apply metadata to the email and attachments. Click Save.
  4. harmon.ie suggests to share the uploaded file to Teams. Click Share to Teams if you want to notify your team about the uploaded email, and then:
    1. Optionally, edit the message to send.
    2. Optionally, check Notify everyone in this channel to mention all channel members.
    3. Click Share.
    4. Either click Go to Teams to view your post and continue working in the Teams app, or click Close.
  • If you don’t want to be prompted to share the uploaded email in Teams, check the Don’t show again check box.
  • You can also set whether to be prompted or not in harmon.ie options.
  • If the Team was created from an existing team, the channel’s corresponding SharePoint folder is not created immediately. As a result, upload to newly created teams may fail. To fix this, from Teams, manually access the channel’s Files tab, and then try again.

To search for documents in Teams:

You can search for content inside documents and email messages uploaded to Teams channels or shared in chats and meetings. To do this:

  1. Browse to the team or channel where you want to search.
  2. Type the search term and select the search context Current Team or All Teams.
