Connect with Microsoft Teams to automatically import recordings and transcripts into Aha! Discovery after a meeting concludes. This saves you the time and effort of exporting and importing recordings manually for analysis — so you can focus more on capturing the most valuable insights in your research.The two main functions of the Microsoft Teams integration are to generate a Microsoft Teams meeting URL for interviews scheduled in Aha! Discovery and to import video and transcript recordings of those meetings into Aha! Discovery automatically.
This article provides you with prerequisites and instructions on how to set up and use the integration.

Before a meeting
Manual scheduling
If you schedule an interview with a participant manually and you want the recorded meeting to upload automatically:
Navigate to the interview.
Select [User name] (Teams) in the Meeting host field. You can select yourself or any other user who has integrated with Microsoft Teams.
Click Generate URL.
Send the URL to the participant.
Participant self-scheduling
If you use a scheduling page to allow participants to self-schedule, you will need to configure a Meeting host for your study's scheduling page. This ensures that the integration will generate a meeting URL when a new interview is scheduled:
Navigate to your study and click Schedule.
In the Meeting link section, select Use automatically generated URL.
-
Select the person who will be hosting and recording in Microsoft Teams in the Meeting host field.
Note: Meeting hosts must be connected to Microsoft Teams and added to the study as a researcher to be listed here.
If you use a meeting URL that was not generated by the integration, videos and transcripts will not upload automatically to the interview in Aha! Discovery. Instead, you will need to export these files from Microsoft Teams and import them manually.
You can click the generated meeting link from your interview record at any time to start the interview. Do not forget to record!
After a meeting
When your Microsoft Teams meeting concludes, the recorded video and transcript will upload to your interview's Details page as soon as it is processed. It will take some time for Microsoft Teams to finish transcribing the interview and make the recording available. As soon as it is available, Aha! will upload it into your account.
A transcript will not automatically upload if one already exists in the interview record. If there are multiple recordings for an interview, only the first one will be uploaded.
The transcript will load in the main body of the interview's Details page. From here, you can manually highlight insights or use AI-powered transcript analysis (available in Aha! Discovery Advanced) to capture key learnings, analyze sentiment, and more.
The video will display in the upper-left corner of the interview's Details page. When you play the video, dialogue will be underlined in the transcript so you can follow along.
