The PADS4 Microsoft Teams integration relies on Azure Communication Services to join and manage Teams meetings. This guide walks you through creating the resource and retrieving the connection string that PADS4 CTRL Center needs.

​
Before you begin

Make sure that you have:
  • An Azure subscription with permission to create resources.
  • Completed the Azure Set-up app registration for the Teams integration.

​
Step 1: Create a Communication Services resource

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Azure Portal.
  2. Go to Azure Communication Services and select Create.
  3. Configure the resource:
    • Subscription — select your Azure subscription.
    • Resource group — choose an existing group or create a new one.
    • Name — any reference name for the resource.
    • Geography — choose the region closest to your users.
  4. Select Review + create, then Create.

​
Step 2: Retrieve the primary connection string

PADS4 CTRL Center needs the Primary Connection String from the resource.
  1. Open the Communication Services resource you just created.
  2. In the left menu, select Keys.
  3. Copy the Primary key connection string.
Treat the connection string like a password. Store it securely and rotate it if it may have been exposed.
You can now enter this value in PADS4 CTRL Center to complete the Microsoft Teams integration.
