AccuCampus: How do I set up MS Teams appointment links on a tutor's profile?

Introduction

AccuCampus supports meeting links made with MS Teams. When it's time for a student to meet with their tutor, AccuCampus will take the MS Teams link in the tutor's profile and use it to create links that will be sent to both the student and the tutor. However, because MS Teams uses its own links, there is a small amount of setup required. This article will explain how to create the MS Teams' URL, and where to paste it on the tutor's profile.

 

Step-By-Step

Obtaining MS Teams' session URL

1. Navigate to MS Teams and create a meeting.

2. Set the appointment to last for at least a few days or weeks.

 

3. Click the Copy invite button to copy the link.

 

4. Paste the link into Notepad or any other text editing software.

5. Highlight and copy only the URL that appears in the editing software.

 

Pasting the URL into the tutor's account

1. Open AccuCampus and navigate to General > Users.  

2. Search for the tutor and click on their name

 

3. Click the Edit User button just below the "About" section.

 

 4. Scroll down to "Fixed Session URL" and paste the URL into the text field.

 

5. Scroll down and click the Save button.

How appointments will work

Every appointment this tutor creates will now use the MS Teams URL pasted into their profile. The tutor just needs to open MS Teams and click the Join button to begin the session. When students click their virtual appointment links, AccuCampus will redirect them to this MS Teams session.
