Office 365 Prerequisites

This document is intended to provide both a high level, as well as technical requirements required to install and configure an Instant Chime for Microsoft Teams application server.

This document covers 2 general scenarios:

In the first scenario, your organization intends to install Chime in ‘self-hosted’, or ‘on-premise’ mode and your organization will install, configure, and manage your Chime server. In this scenario, prior to installing the Chime server, you should pay close attention to the sections in this document related to Hostname, Firewalls, and creating the necessary SSL certificate on the Chime server. After reviewing the core areas related to the machine hosting, public IP, and certificate resourcing you should review the areas related to Azure AD, 0365 permissions, and Bot Framework configurations.

In the second scenario, Chime will be installed and managed by a third-party hosting provider (possibly Instant) and items such as configuring Azure AD, AD Authentication, and Application permissions will be important. These areas are also relevant to self-hosted modes.

For more information on installation and architecture visit our Install and Getting Started page.

At a high level, Chime for Teams will need to be configured to securely communicate with several external services as well as access the following resources:

• Microsoft Azure AD
• Microsoft Office 365 Graph APIs
• Microsoft Bot Framework
