Ambition TV in Microsoft Teams
I need a token to add to my TV URL
How do I add the token to my Ambition TV URL?
How do I create a Website tab in Microsoft Teams?
Prerequisites
- Owner or team member within a Microsoft Teams channel.
- Token generated to bypass password based authentication for viewing TV URL
Generate Token
Before the TV URL can be input into Microsoft Teams, your organization will need to receive a Token to append to your TV URLs that allows for mass distribution instead of the TV URL being only accessible by those with an Ambition account.
Each URL token is associated to an active account in Ambition, and a single token can be used across multiple TV URLs. Currently tokens cannot be refreshed, but a new token can be issued to another user in Ambition in the event a new token is needed.
Use Token-Based Authentication
Before you begin, you'll first need to have a token generated for your organization. Learn more here.
