Enhance Teamwork with Microsoft Teams' New Feature: Collaborative Stageview

-

 As the pace of digital transformation accelerates, Microsoft Teams continues to evolve, offering more and more innovative features to enhance collaboration and productivity within organizations. Today, we're excited to unveil the latest game-changer: the Collaborative Stageview.

Scheduled for release in June 2023, the Collaborative Stageview is a novel addition to Microsoft Teams that promises to revolutionize the way users interact with content and team members simultaneously.

What is the Collaborative Stageview?

The Collaborative Stageview is a fresh type of Teams window that facilitates engaging content exploration and conversation concurrently. This feature provides a significant boost to collaborative endeavors, enabling users to:

  1. Open their content directly into a new Teams window from eligible adaptive cards. This feature simplifies the process of accessing relevant data, ensuring you have all the information you need at your fingertips.

  2. Engage with app content on a broad Teams canvas. The expansive canvas enables users to view and interact with content more effectively, thereby enhancing comprehension and collaboration.

  3. Continue the conversation from which they originated within the Collaborative Stageview side panel. This aspect ensures seamless communication, enabling users to discuss content without switching contexts or interfaces.

The Rollout Timeline

Microsoft has planned a Standard Release for this highly-anticipated feature. The rollout is set to commence in early June 2023 and is expected to be fully operational across all teams by late June 2023.

How Will Collaborative Stageview Impact Your Organization?

This groundbreaking feature is all about amplifying collaboration and productivity in your organization. By providing a platform for users to interact with content and carry on conversations side-by-side, the Collaborative Stageview will eliminate the need for toggling between windows and streamline workflows.

However, it's important to note that users opening apps in the Teams web client will be unaffected by this change. In the web client, the Collaborative Stageview will default to the current Stageview modal.

Preparing for the Change

The beauty of Collaborative Stageview lies in its simplicity. There's no action required from admins, making the transition to this new feature seamless. Apps built for Collaborative Stageview will automatically pop out into new Teams windows, ensuring a smooth user experience.

Microsoft Teams' Collaborative Stageview is more than a feature; it's an innovative step towards a more integrated and collaborative digital workspace. Stay tuned for the launch and get ready to experience collaboration like never before with Microsoft Teams.

Here is the article link from last week: How to Capture WebRTC Logs Overview In this part 1 article, I will go through some of the basic concepts of how to Gather Candidates and how ICE sends an offer. Though Microsoft is following the RFC standard, it also has it's own ICE extensions which are proprietary. Keep this in mind especially when you are trying to integrate with other systems.  ICE, (Interactive Connectivity Establishment) is the term used to describe how Microsoft Teams discover and choose to use media paths between two endpoints.
