# Use the Altus for Teams app

This app provides access to the platform components natively from **Microsoft Teams.**

**Tip:** When you launch the Microsoft Teams app, you can click on the **Altus button** on the left navigation bar or you may need to click on the **ellipses (…)** to see the app.

There are currently four (4) tabs available in the app to allow you to see the **Projects, Programs, Portfolios** and **Proposals** in your organization.  Depending on licensing and Microsoft365 Group security, you may not see all the options:

-   The **tabs** you see will depend on what components you are licensed to use.
-   Each tab then provides a list of all the components that **you have permission** to view.
-   You will see icons for **Project (links to either the native scheduling in the platform , Project Online, Project for the web or Azure DevOps), Altus, Teams** and **SharePoint.**  

> **Tip:** These links are content aware.  You will see that some projects only have icons for Project schedule and Altus.  This is because, at least at this point in time, the project has not been associated with a Microsoft365 group, therefore there is no Teams Channel, and no documents exist in the SharePoint site.   If this changes as the project conditions changes, these icons will become available.

-   The **first icon** will launch **the appropriate schedule management tool** for the project and ready for review and/or update.
-   The **second icon** will launch **Project** so that you can review and update all the non-schedule components of the project, such as Issues and Risks. 
-   The **third icon** will take you directly to the **Teams Channel** for the project. 

> **Important:** You must already be a member of that project’s Microsoft365 group for this link to work.

-   And similarly, the **fourth icon** will take you directly to that **project’s SharePoint site,** again, assuming you are already a member of that’s project Microsoft 365 group.   
      
     
-   The **Search box** allows you to quickly find an element by name; or alternatively, you can use **group by** for any display column to find a specific project.  
      
     
-   And finally, you can **sort the list by** any column to order the project list.  
      
     
-   The same functionalities exist for all the tabs displayed to you in the platform via  Microsoft Teams.
