NEW: Collaboration Add-on - Microsoft 365 Integration for Znuny 7.2.x

Post by stephan14x »

Hello everyone,

after my first attempt at a Teams integration (see MS Teams Avatar / Presence Integration) I have now implemented this as a full-fledged add-on. The old approach with the Microsoft Graph Toolkit will become obsolete anyway - Microsoft is discontinuing support for it in August 2026. The new add-on instead uses MSAL.js and the Graph API directly, with a clean provider architecture and significantly more features.

What does the add-on do?

The Collaboration Add-on brings Microsoft 365 directly into your Znuny - avatars, presence status, contact information and scheduling, all without context switching.

Features:
  • Avatar + Presence - Profile pictures and online status from Microsoft 365 (Available/Busy/Away/Offline)
  • Hover Cards - Detailed profile cards with department, phone, location, email etc.
  • Teams Chat - One click opens a chat with the person
  • Teams Call - One click starts a call
  • Meeting Scheduler - Schedule appointments with Free/Busy lookup, Teams Meeting or On-site
  • Ticket Linking - Created appointments are automatically linked to the ticket
  • Calendar + Out of Office - When selecting Owner or Responsible (ticket creation or update): See calendar availability and out of office message directly
Technical Highlights:
  • MSAL.js with Silent SSO (token persists across browser tabs)
  • Modular provider architecture (M365, Znuny fallback, Mock for development)
  • Feature toggles for granular control
  • German and English translations
Requirements:
  • Znuny 7.2.x
  • Microsoft 365 Tenant with Entra ID
  • App Registration with corresponding Graph API Permissions
