What is the Teams app?

The Teams app is a living directory that keeps track of people and who they work with to get things done. You can find profiles for both the people you work with and the teams across your organization.

What the Teams app does

The Teams app acts as your organization’s directory, where you can browse and view profiles for people and teams.

You can create new teams in the app and send kudos to teams or people you’ve worked with to show your appreciation.

How to activate and administer the Teams app

Like other platform experiences and apps, any organization with at least one Atlassian site is eligible to use Teams, regardless of whether they have a free or paid plan. Sites are automatically created when signing up for many of our apps, such as Jira or Confluence.

Some apps, such as Trello and Bitbucket, can be used without an Atlassian organization or site, meaning teams cannot be used with these apps alone. To use Teams, the easiest way will need to create an organization and add at least the free plan of Jira, Confluence, or any other app.

How to get to the Teams app

Within Atlassian, you can switch between apps using the button in the top left corner of the navigation bar and find Teams from the list of available apps.

You can also find Teams in the list of apps in the navigation sidebar on Atlassian Home.
