titleStep 3. Setting Private Channel Creation Permissions in M365

Private Channel

CAM uses Azure AD - Microsoft Graph API - to access resources in M365 to create Groups and Teams. When you create a private channel, it has its own SharePoint site collection. The separate site collection is to ensure access to that private channel files are restricted to only members of the private channel compared to the team site where team owners have access to all the assets within the site collection.  

The site collection created using private channels as per Microsoft documentation is not visible in the SharePoint admin center unless someone manually clicks on the Files tab in teams once the SharePoint site will be available in 1-2 min or almost instantly. 

To trigger the click event on the Files tab, CAM needs the Microsoft native API permission which can be added by following the steps -

  1.  Login to M365 with your Global Admin Access. Go to the “Azure portal”https://portal.azure.com/#home 

  2. Go to Azure Active Directory on the far-left menu bar. 

  3. Click on App Registration

  4. Select the registered app.

  5. Click on 

    Anchor
    Manifest
    Manifest
    Manifest

  6. On the right side (in the manifest), click within the manifest and scroll down till the end. 

  7. On your keyboard, process Ctrl+F to bring up the search bar.

  8. Search requiredResourceAccess

  9. Put comma, after the previous node then copy below node in the List -

Code Block
{
            "resourceAppId": "cc15fd57-2c6c-4117-a88c-83b1d56b4bbe",
            "resourceAccess": [
                {
                    "id": "fd7bf697-168c-45be-b7ba-e94b3529deff",
                    "type": "Scope"
                }
            ]
  },

10. Click Save

11. Now click on API permissions on the left bar. 

12. On the right side, scroll down till the end. 

13. Under "Microsoft Teams Services (1)", it will list user_impersonation under Microsoft Teams Services, status as Not granted for <global admin user>. 

14. In order to provide admin consent, scroll to the top of the page and click on select Grant admin consent for <global admin user>.

titleStep 4. Setting Service Account Permissions for the use of Microsoft Planner in Teams

Service Account Permission - Use Planner in Teams

Note: If you would like to have Microsoft's Planner app within MS Teams, refer to Microsoft’s Planner app documentation. 

To be able to create the Planner tab in Team Channels, Microsoft requires that delegated / service account users be created and is a member of the team. However, to build a team, there must be an appointed owner. Because of this requirement, you need an additional service account so that you can switch to it to create a planner. 

  1. In the M365 Admin Centre, in the left-hand menu click on Users and then Active Users.

  2. Click Add User. It is recommended to use a generic name such as “Planner User” with an email address of “planneruser@<domain>” 

  3. Assign the user a license. 

  4. Do not assign any administration permissions or roles. This user should be set up as a standard user. 

  5. Record the email address, as you will require this with configuring M365 within the CAM platform.

Configuration in CAM Planner

Follow the steps to create a Planner inside a Channel.

Follow these steps to create a Planner.

  1. Create a Planner Template. Click here to Setup the Planner structure in the template Editor.

  2. Create a Planner on a Teams/Channel using a CSV upload or Request workflow using the Template.

    1. Set up a CSV upload.

      1. Enter the Unique Ids metadata for the M365 creating Teams. Click the CSV parameters for further help.
        Sample CSV

      2. Go to the Jobs tab and upload the CSV.

  3. Configure a Request Workflow.

  4. On a successful job execution, the Planner displayed on teams as follows:

Info

Note: Group owners do not have access to Planners.

Note: Microsoft has a restriction, only group members can access Planners. As group owners cannot access Planners, you need an additional service account (group member) to create a Planner.

Token roles can be assigned to group members while creating a planner. After a group member creates the Planner, the token role can be reassigned to the owner. A token role is assigned to a group member so that the group member is able to receive the token and approve the creation of planners.


Steps to Set an Additional Service Account in the External System Configuration

  1. Go to Administration.

  2. Click External System Configuration.

  3. Select M365.

  4. Click Edit. The following screen will be displayed:

Metadata

Click Manage to edit or update the Metadata to sync.

  1. The following information will now be available to continue entering in the CAM M365 tab.

    1. Some fields are optional and can be filled if you are choosing to include Sharepoint in the M365 Connection.

If using Entra ID for Sharepoint, and confirm EntraId is configured in the client Office365, click Yes. The options update where the client secret, key and name disappear as these are not needed.

Field

Description

Name

Enter a name for the M365 configuration. This is a required field. The preferred default name is: M365 SharePoint Online Application ID

Auth URL

The URL of the M365 portal. This is a required field. This is based on your firm’s implementation of tenants. If you have two tenants (e.g. production and staging or two different CAM instances), select multi-tenant.

By default, this is: Multi-tenant - https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize

Single tenant - https://login.microsoftonline.com/(Directory(Tenant) Id)/oauth2/v2.0/authorize

Note: Based on the your selection of singletenant or multitenant the Auth URL will change.

Do note these URLs are using OAuth2 authentication.

Directory(Tenant) Id

Enter the Directory Id from the Azure Active Directory Portal. Please see Step 1: CAM App Registration in M365 for instructions 

Application Id

Set No if you are using the Azure AD or the old methods of authentication. Do note the old Azure ACS authentication method is retired, per Microsoft

A benefit of using Entra is you don’t need to re-register the client application each year to prevent token expiry.

SharePoint Resource (applicable if connecting sharepoint)

  1. This string is used to connect CAM directly with SharePoint distinguishing from a connection to Teams. SharePoint is the document and data storage platform for Teams but CAM can also just create SharePoint Sites that don't have Teams. 

The SharePoint Resource is comprised of three values:

  • The resource string: 00000003-0000-0ff1-ce00-000000000000

Note the resource string is the same for all systems.

  • M365TenantId.sharepoint.com.  For ex., tenantsite.sharepoint.com or company_name.sharepoint.com

  • The value entered in the Directory (Tenant) Id field above in the table.

Info

If the Azure AD tenant is set for single tenant mode only, the SharePoint resource string does not require the @directory_or_tenant_id component, but it never hurts to include it. 

The information must be entered in the format 00000003-0000-0ff1-ce00-000000000000/M365TenantId.sharepoint.com@Directory (Tenant) Id

SharePoint Client Id (applicable if connecting sharepoint)

Format: 2f1af3fc-74b2-4825-b355-591f0abcd3fd

SharePoint Client Secret (applicable if connecting sharepoint)

Enter the Application Password (entered earlier in the Application Password field above). Application password=client secret

App Domain (applicable if connecting sharepoint)

This is the following format replacing tenant name with your tenant:

Redirect URl (applicable if connecting sharepoint)

This is in the following format: https://tenantname.sharepoint.com/default.aspx

Additional Service Account

If you are using Planner, and you haven’t created a planner user yet, follow this step: https://pdocs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CCAM/pages/30244896/M365+with+CAM+configuration#Service-Account-Permission---Use-Planner-in-Teams . This should be listed here. This account should be any account other than the Token user. It can be any user with no specific requirement.

App Permissions (applicable if connecting sharepoint)

This will set permissions for Sharepoint to work with CAM using an app principal.

<AppPermissionRequests AllowAppOnlyPolicy="true"> <AppPermissionRequest Scope="http://sharepoint/content/tenant" Right="FullControl" /> </AppPermissionRequests>
