Microsoft Teams – App Installation Tracking and Adoption Dashboard

Written by Ben Morris | Jul 31, 2025 5:02:49 PM

The new Teams Install Tracking Dashboard introduces enhanced visibility into Teams app adoption, powered by the ChimeV5.TeamsAddressBook feature. This integration allows administrators to quickly access user-level installation and activity data directly from the dashboard, creating a complete view of tenant-wide Teams engagement.

Key Features

  • Comprehensive Installation Tracking:

    • Every Teams app install is now captured with user and tenant details, including:

      • User name and email

      • Install date and status

      • Last active date in Teams chat with the bot

  • Tenant-Level Dashboard:

    • Located in Admin → Chime Advanced → Teams Install Dashboard, this view shows:

      • New installs and all-time installs

      • Users active in the last day and last month

      • Recent new users with name, email, and Teams install date

      • A link to the Teams Address Book for a full user list with last active dates and date range filters

  • Historical Data Reconstruction:

    • Use existing chat session logs to retroactively identify installs and activity. This also attempts to fill in missing data by recognizing guest users who previously used Teams for chats.

  • Adoption Trends and Reporting:

    • Track installation and engagement trends to support adoption initiatives and better understand user activity within your tenant.

  • Teams Address Book:
    • View all Teams users with their name, email, address, install date/time, and last active date/time. Includes advanced options like date range selection, searching, column sorting, and a “show all” view for complete tenant visibility.

Why It’s Useful

The Teams Install Tracking Dashboard makes it easier to:

  • Measure how widely the Teams app is deployed in your tenant

  • Identify active and inactive users for adoption campaigns

  • Reconstruct and maintain accurate installation history

  • Make data-driven decisions to improve Teams engagement

With these insights, organizations can optimize Teams app usage and drive adoption using clear, actionable data.
