TeamLink 2.0.0.4

🚀 Major new feature release 🎉

• Minor fix to this version to correct the ordering in drop down lists

Enhancements

New screen reader accessible view - we know that some screen readers struggled to navigate the visuals on TeamLink. We have now introduced a new simplified view which makes it easier for screen readers to parse the screen.

Language localization - we have had requests to localize TeamLink into other languages. We are pleased to say that you can now access TeamLink in French, German and Spanish in addition to English. This is shown depending on your Teams language settings. You can also add your own language by updating the Languages table.

Brand new customization options - we know thåat you want to be able to make TeamLink look the way you want so we've increased the options to customize the experience for TeamLink admins. You can now change

• The app name
• The app logo
• Core app colours
• Icons for home, work and not working
• Meet up icon

Delegate access - one of the more popular features requests was to provide delegate access for someone to update your calendar presence on your behalf. You can now do this from the TeamLink Profile screen.

Improved onboarding - we identified that the workflow during the onboarding experience was not optimal so we have improved that.

Favourite site dropdown - we had feedback from customers who had a lot of sites that users had to scroll too far to find their site. We have now re-ordered the dropdown list when you choose the office to put your preferred sites at the top.

Bug Fix

This Team List - we introduced a bug in 2.0.0.0 which showed an empty list on This Team list. Thanks to @slickspidey for finding and reporting.

TeamLink 1.0.0.30

Fixes and Enhancements

Fixes

• fixed a problem where a broken image symbol was shown for some users
• corrected an issue when setting presence in the future in a different daylight savings time period i.e. setting a winter presence during the summer. This would attribute the presence to an incorrect day. Some users may have to re-enter future presence if they originally had a problem

Enhancements

New settings table - we have added a new settings table into the app which can be edited by admins to customise the experience

• Purge Historic Presence - many users have asked for an automatic deletion of historic presence information. There is a new flow which is run daily and checks whether the admin has configured the setting to automatically delete presence information. To use this add the following row into the TeamLinkSettings table. The SettingValue should be the age of the presence to delete e.g. to delete any presence older than a week use

SettingName - PurgeAgeDays
SettingValue - 7

• Remove Profile Pics from Site Grid - larger deployments may notice that the Site Grid is slow when there are lots of people present at a site. This is because it is a slow process to fetch profile pics from the Office 365 Graph. To switch off profile pics in the Site Grid add the following row to the TeamLinkSettings table.

SettingName - ShowProfilePics
SettingValue - false

• Customise Meet Icon - If you want to replace the current "Meet for Coffee" icon you can do so. You can replace it with an SVG image. You will need to open the SVG file in Notepad and replace all instances of double quotes " with a single quote '. Then add the following row to the TeamLinkSettings table.

SettingName - MeetIcon
SettingValue - PASTE SVG CONTENT WITH REPLACED QUOTES IN HERE
