**How do I connect Astra by Tycoon in Microsoft Teams?**

1. Sign in to [Tycoon](https://tycoon.us).
2. Open **Integrations → Channels** from the main navigation.
3. Select **Microsoft Teams**, choose **Manage**, and copy the complete personal
   code beginning with `LINK:`.
4. In Microsoft Teams, install **Astra by Tycoon** and open a personal chat.
5. Paste the complete `LINK:` code into that chat and send it.

Astra replies **You're connected!** when the account is linked. You can then
send a greeting, ask for help, or ask Astra to track work, summarize business
updates, research a question, or coordinate your Tycoon AI team.

**What do I need?**

An active Tycoon account and permission to install or use Astra by Tycoon in
your Microsoft Teams organization. This release supports personal chat only;
it does not support team channels or group chats.

### FAQ

**Q: Where is the personal link code?**
A: In Tycoon, open **Integrations → Channels**, select **Microsoft Teams**, and choose
**Manage**. The dialog displays the complete code and a copy button.

**Q: What if the code is invalid or expired?**
A: Return to **Integrations → Channels → Microsoft Teams**, choose **Manage** again, copy the
new complete code, and send it in the Astra by Tycoon personal chat.

**Q: What can I type to test the bot?**
A: Try `Hi`, `Hello`, or `Help`. After linking, you can also ask a normal business
question such as `What work needs my attention?` Astra always returns a useful
reply or a clear retry/help message.

**Q: Why can't I use Astra before linking?**
A: Linking identifies your Tycoon account and workspace so Astra can act with
the same access you already have in Tycoon. Do not share your personal link code.

**Q: I still need help.**
A: Email [support@tycoon.us](mailto:support@tycoon.us) and include the visible
error message. Never send passwords, access tokens, or your complete link code.
