How It Works

Your Access = Blockbrain's Access

• Blockbrain can only see MS Teams files you can access

• If you can't open/find a file/chat/meeting, neither can Blockbrain

• Your permissions stay exactly the same

Safe and Secure

• Your files remain in Chats/OneDrive/SharePoint

• Blockbrain reads and updates only as instructed—no unauthorized changes

• All access is logged in your organization's audit trail

Tips for Better Results

Be Specific

False: "Find my message" Correct: "Find my message about the Q3 budget in the Finance channel"

Use File Types

False: "Show me files" Correct: "Show me all PDF files shared in the Marketing team last week"

Mention Locations

False: "Find the meeting" Correct: "Find the meeting transcript from the Project Kickoff in the Engineering team"

Troubleshooting

"I can't find my team or message"

• Check if you can see the team or message in Microsoft Teams directly

• Try using different search terms (e.g., part of the team or channel name)

• The item might be in a team or chat you don't have access to

"Permission denied" errors

• Your Teams permissions may have changed

• Contact your IT team to verify your access

• Try reconnecting the agent

"No Teams found"

• You might not be a member of any Teams

• Check with your administrator about Teams licensing

• Verify you're signed in with the correct Microsoft account

Privacy and Security

• Respecting Permissions: Blockbrain can only access Teams, channels, chats, and files you have permission to see

• No Unauthorized Changes: Blockbrain only sends messages or updates meetings when you instruct it—no unsolicited actions

• No Storage: Blockbrain doesn't store copies of your messages, files, or meeting data
