You can use ArcGIS for Teams to bring maps and location intelligence into Microsoft Teams.
With ArcGIS for Teams embedded in Microsoft Teams, you can quickly and seamlessly share an interactive ArcGIS map in a channel or meeting. ArcGIS for Teams can be used to search for and share publicly available ArcGIS Online content. When you sign in to an ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise account, you can search for your own or your organization's private content, including maps, scenes, layers, and more.
Use the share collaboration feature in ArcGIS for Teams to review spatial content during meetings and calls. Participants can independently explore a shared map, change presenters, sketch, annotate and interact with a comprehensive library of publicly available ArcGIS location data.
Install
You can install ArcGIS for Teams directly from the Microsoft AppSource to a personal (private) scope to explore ArcGIS features on your own, or you can install ArcGIS for Teams to a chat, channel, or meeting, provided that you have the necessary channel member privileges.
Once you install ArcGIS for Teams, the Microsoft Teams Copilot recognizes the ArcGIS plugin and enables your search for private ArcGIS content.

Sign in to or out of ArcGIS
Use ArcGIS for Teams to search for public ArcGIS content anonymously or sign in to your ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise account to access private spatial and location data from your organization and from ArcGIS.
Users who sign in have access to more ArcGIS content than guest users, as shown in the following table.
Guest user | ArcGIS account |
---|---|

To sign in to your ArcGIS account, click Search from any location where you have installed ArcGIS for Teams.
You are prompted to sign in. Follow the sign in steps for your user account type.
To sign out, the next time you initiate a search, at the sign-in step, click Switch account.
You are returned to the initial sign-in prompt to enter new user credentials or select Continue as guest. Signing out of ArcGIS for Teams does not sign you out from other Esri or ArcGIS-related apps in your web browser.
View items
ArcGIS maps, scenes, files, layers, and compatible apps typically open on the Viewer tab of the ArcGIS for Teams installation. You can also click Open in browser to open applicable items in your default web browser instead of Microsoft Teams.
Note:
To view map and other graphic content in ArcGIS for Teams Classic you may need to turn off Disable GPU hardware acceleration in your Microsoft Teams settings.
