Microsoft Teams: Adding an Account
Microsoft Teams is used as the default video meeting platform for many different organizations, some of which you may be a part of already. If you logged into Teams with an organization account that is different from your Canisius account, this is how you add your Canisius Account.
For help logging into Microsoft Teams for the first time, see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/how-to-log-in-to-microsoft-teams-ea4b1443-d11b-4791-8ae1-9977e7723055.

| 1 | In Microsoft Teams, click on your user icon in the upper-right corner. It may be an image or your initials. | 
|
| 2 | Click on Add another account in the menu that appears. |
|
| 3 | In the pop-up that appears, type in your Canisius email address, which should be: yourUsername@canisius.edu Do not use yourUsernamen@my.canisius.edu. When you have entered in your email address, click on Next. |
|
| 4 | The pop-up should update with the familiar Canisius login. Enter your Canisius username and password. Note: for the authentication screen, you may need to expand the pop-up by hovering your cursor over the bottom-edge until you see a bi-directional arrow and then clicking and dragging down to see the option to “Trust Device”. This will make it so that you only need to login in every so often rather than every time you open Teams. |
|
| 5 | From there, you will be signed into your Canisius account. You can switch between accounts by clicking on the account icon in the upper-right and selecting the appropriate account. |
