The Decisions app can be installed in your Microsoft 365 environment in several ways. The most common way is to directly add the Decisions app from the Teams store.
Install via the desktop app for Teams
- When installing from the Teams desktop app, click on (+) Apps on the left sidebar.
- Then search for 'Decisions.'
- And finally, click Add.
- If it says 'Open,' Decisions is already installed!
You may also encounter 'Request' as an option, which means that your organization requires further internal approval steps to use Decisions (and likely other third-party applications — learn more here).
Additionally, in more rare cases, you might not be able to locate Decisions by searching in the Teams store at all, because your organization blocks third-party app installation.
In both of these case, contact your internal IT team first for support, then reach out to us at support@meetingdecisions.com if there are further questions.
Pinning the application in Teams
For quick access to Decisions, we recommend that you pin the application to your sidebar in Teams. Simply right click on the Decisions app, and select 'Pin' to ensure the application is always shown in your sidebar.
Signing into Decisions
Now that Decisions is installed, you’ll be prompted to sign in using your Microsoft username and password. This is where you’ll give Decisions the access needed for much of Decisions functionality.
For complete functionality and team-based collaboration, Decisions requires that a global Microsoft 365 admin grants admin consent to the application on your tenant.
Security note: Decisions is designed for security-centric organizations. Learn all about our certifications in our Trust Center and learn how Decisions uses your permission scopes.
Other installation methods and requirements
You can also install additional add-ons for Decisions, like the Decisions Meeting Secretary (to manage meetings in Decisions directly from Outlook) and the Decisions Meeting Document Manager (for Word and Powerpoint files generated by Decisions)
