MS teams plugin
Would be great if it can have a plugin for Microsoft Teams - as this is now the replacement for Skype for Business etc.
As of now, MS Teams does not share data about calls, so there is not way to add this feature.
Nov 2023: To our knowledge, this is still not possible

I'd like to add some new context for this popular request, as I think that some additional functionality can be added based on the existing window header data that is currently captured by Manic Time.
Screenshot: https://snipboard.io/jHhAaI.jpg
As you can see in the screenshot included, Manic Time already registers some information from the Window Header:
- 'P2P' is the name of the meeting, and in some cases, this is the name of the user you are connected with (depending on if it's a meeting from your calendar or a teams call initiated from a Teams Chat window
- XXX.com is the organization name
- 'louell@...' is the account logged inIn cases where the call switches to a compact view, this header might change, but overall, it's possible to determine the start timestamp and end timestamp of a particular Teams call.
Turning this into a new layer (similar to how a Calendar 365 Calendar Appointments are depicted, in their own timeline, would be really helpful, especially in cases where screens/other applications are shared within that Teams Call and tagged (appropriately) as Excel, Word, VS Code, etc.)
Being able to more clearly define the start and end of a Teams Call would be very beneficial as an alternative to trying to select the items between the start and end in the existing timeline view.
A separate summary group reporting the duration of specific Teams Call (based on data in the header alone) would be a useful feature, IMO.
If this doesn't align with the original intent of this request, please let me know and I will create a new request with these details.
Thanks!

Hi @ManicTimeSupport. Long time no update on this one. Any news, please?

Any update on this? It appear this information may be available from Graph API

MS Teams provides access to call data on an organization level and they are accessible via Graphi API, I wasn't able to verify what permissions were required.

Any new updates on this? You might be able to get the call data if you can somehow access log files from teams and then get the data from there or access it via graph API on tenant level or maybe if you can read out the title of the window ?

Hi Manic Time Team,
Thanks for reviewing this suggestion. I guess we need to lobby Microsoft to make the data available so that a plugin could be written :-)
I've created a suggestion with microsoft feedback hub here: https://aka.ms/AAh4k4t -

Is there any feedback from the devs? If not I assume ManicTime is slowly dying??

Agreed. My work essentially lives in Teams all day.

We urgently need Teams integration. We spend hours every day on Teams but Manic doesn't track this!!

I totally agree with this request. I spent almost time on MS Teams recently. I need to check how much time, what kinds of files, who were associated..

With Teams adoption at such a high rate, and so many working from home, this would be a very welcome addition ASAP!

Definitely need some definition on what I was doing in Teams - even who I was chatting with is not available currently.

Yes, please! Our company uses Teams for all calls (internal, external, conference calls, etc.) and these don't track in ManicTime. (It tracks that we're in the program, but it should distinguish between chatting and being on a call.)

We more and more move from Skype for Business to MS Teams and would love to have a MS Teams Plug-In in ManicTime!

ManicTime should have integration to Planner and Teams.

I too would love to see this. A full integration that tracks per-team activity, calls, PSTN calls, meetings, and to integrate with Teams as a tab.
