Hello,

My new school are integrated with Microsoft Teams and all of my classes are already in Teams itself. However, as a long time user of iDoceo I'm reluctant to move my day to day marking and assessment from iDoceo as it works so well. Is integration of classes with Teams on the development roadmap?

It would be great if I could connect iDoceo to Teams and sync my classes.

Thanks as always.
Stuart

Sure Stuart, it is in our roadmap

Regards

Glad to hear it's being considered - my school have embraced Teams this year, and it would be amazing to have my favourite Teaching app link in.

It could make for even simpler class setups within iDoceo at the start of each year, as well as better syncing of assessment data.

Obviously you'll have your own list of priorities - but is it likely in the next 12 months? Just curious!
Thanks
Ben

Of course Ben. It shouldn't take that long!

Regards,

That's amazing news. Thanks Bert. Do you think it's likely to be before September (the new term)? I'll pass the news on to our development team at school.

I'm afraid I can't be more specific yet. We have a couple of huge projects in between. I'll keep you posted

It's great that Teams is supported now. Since there is no official information about it, I guess it is treated as beta?

In my school we have the following situation: students have a username like "smiann0609" for Anna Smith. Is there a way to connect her to her entry in iDoceo? I could add an extra field "teams-name" in the data for every student, if that helps.

Where did you see that teams is supported ?

Chris

It is not available yet. Microsoft's tools are still in Beta

OK, thank you. Perhaps you could keep the teams<->iDoceo mapping problem in mind

Bonjour Bert,

Cela fait plusieurs mois que je n'ai pas eu de version bêta...est-ce normal?

Je lis que Teams pourra intégrer IDOCEO, mais chez moi cela reste pareil, je n'ai plus accès aux tests bêta dans TestFlight.

Merci

Hi Bert,

Hope you are keeping safe and well. Do you know if the Microsoft Teams integration is coming soon? I'm looking forward to setting up a colleagues iPad with iDoceo but we're holding out at the minute as that will be SO much easier.

Thank you for all the work you do to make our jobs easier! Please let me know, as with previous versions, if you wish me to beta test.

Stuart

Hi,
Are there any news?
Another school year is gone and it keeps me quite busy to control teams and idoceo all the time twice, make notes in both.

I will use teams more and more and it would make my life so much easier, if there would be a chance to transfer data from teams to idoceo the easy way.

Regards
Bubbler

Thanks for answers !
Looking forward to integration with Microsoft

Hi Bert,
I know you said you had a couple of big projects, before Teams integration would get sorted.

Just wondering how that's going, and whether there might be an imminent update (in the next couple of weeks) to iDoceo, which might facilitate importing classes direct from Teams? (UK terms kick off 1st Sept).

No pressure, had just been hoping to import classes and photos more easily this year.

Any news of other updates would be interesting too - doesn't seem to be much talk of this on the forum.

Your post partly inspired me to create a new thread (Is iDoceo still alive?). To be honest Ben, based on the (lack of) development of iDoceo in the last 1-2 years I highly doubt that you will see Microsoft Teams integration anytime soon. Don't wait for it, you will just be disappointed. Certainly not until 1st September. I'd say we will be lucky if we see it in the summer of 2022. The activity in this forum has decreased significantly and there hasn't been any major iDoceo updates for a long time. So don't put your hopes high and try to find other solutions for your import process

Hi Bert,

Pushing this one up as it's been requested by our staff. Do you have any ETA on Teams integration? A lot of our teachers are OneNote only now, and would find this really useful!

Has it been forgotten again or is iDoceo already really dead?

Alive and well Bubbler44, thanks for your concern.
It has not been forgotten. Once properly tested it will be available.
Microsoft has kept it in Beta for a very long time which has been really frustrating.

I have noticed the option to link to Google Classroom or Microsoft Teams when creating a class - it comes up on the three dots in the top corner of the student names column.

I have Microsoft for Business turned on in my Cloud Links. When I click on the Link to Microsoft Teams option in the class tab, nothing happens. I get a search box, but nothing comes up. Perhaps I am searching for the wrong thing. I don't know.

It would be so beneficial to be able to link to my classes via Microsoft Teams - please provide some instruction for how this is achieved.

Similarly we use DayMap for roll marking, but I also like to maintain a roll in iDoceo some sort of linkage there would be outstanding ... maybe I'm missing something but can I import external data via CSV or Excel from something like DayMap into iDoceo if I have it linked via a student ID?
