Want colleagues or partners to reach you faster in Teams instead of by email? Add a Chat with me in Teams link to your email signature. Anyone who clicks it opens a chat with you straight away.
1. Build the link
The link looks like this. Replace the email address with your own:
https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=jan@yourdomain.comPaste the link into your browser to test it: Teams opens a chat with that address.
2. Add the link to your signature
- In the new Outlook or Outlook on the web, go to Settings > Accounts > Signatures. In classic Outlook: File > Options > Mail > Signatures.
- Type a text, such as Chat with me in Teams, or add a small Teams icon.
- Select the text or icon, choose Insert link and paste the link.
- Select Save.
