Way back in November, we announced that we were building a new version of Growbot that would work in Microsoft Teams, and that day has now arrived!

To give kudos to someone on your Teams, just follow this simple formula:

  1. Mention Growbot (so we can hear you!).
  2. Use the “kudos” or “props” keyword.
  3. Select the user (or users!) you want to recognize by using autocomplete.
  4. Let people know what awesome thing they did! 🎉

We’ve also created a new command especially for Teams, called leaderboard. This will pull up a public response from Growbot that shows the Top 10 kudos receivers for the month to date. All scores refresh at the beginning of a new month! And if you get stuck, go ask Growbot for help in a private chat.

We’re working day and night (literally, Nick is in Australia!) to bring more enhancements to Teams, which we’re pretty excited about 😄

If you’re a Microsoft Office 365 user, let your admins know you want to start using Teams today. Then, add Growbot by going to Search > Discover bots, or @mention in a channel to add a bot!

As always, let us know if you have any questions, comments, or feedback by tweeting us @trygrowbot or emailing us at support [at] growbot.io!

If you already have Teams installed, just click this button!
