Managing Notifications on Microsoft Teams

In order to collaborate with team members in the MS Teams app, you must first be added to a Team Channel by that channel's administrator. If you received an email indicating "You have been added to a team in Microsoft Teams", then you should use the link in that message to download and install the Teams app on your platform of choice before using the steps below.
