Adding Wrike into MS Teams
Hi All,
I'm busy evaluating several Task Management solutions. One of these is Wrike.
Since our company uses MS Teams, using Wrike from within MS Teams would be ideal. However, I can't seem to add Wrike to Teams!
When searching for the App to add to Teams, Wrike does not show up:
When I maximize the window, Wrike shows up in the banner, but nothing happens when I click there...
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Jaco
Hi Jacob,
I am not sure why you cannot find it. I have it when I search for it. We use it and it works well.
Thanks,
Ryan
@Jaco Hey, thanks for reaching out! Please check out our Help Center article on Microsoft Teams - you'll find info on how to create a new Wrike account or link an existing one there. If that doesn't help, please let me know and I'll raise a Support ticket for you 👍

Hey @Lisa, I'm facing the same issue as @Jaco and support unfortunately didn't seem to see what the issue was.
Hi @Christian, thanks for reaching out 🙂
To integrate Wrike with MS Teams, you should be an Admin in both applications. Can you please tell me whether your account Admin has tried searching for it? At the same time, I need to mention here that there's a limitation for accounts that have SSO with SAML - such accounts can't be integrated with MS Teams.
Please let me know if you have any further questions!

Hey Lisa, thanks for checking, I found with our O365 admin that the Wrike app was oddly added to our Microsoft Teams add-ins block list from the admin center. Once we removed it from that list it appears that we were able to re-add it to Teams. Thanks!
Glad to know it worked out for your team, @Christian 🙂 Please don't hesitate to reach out here if you need any help or would like to share your feedback or some tips with the Community!

Lisa
we were able to add the Wrike app to Teams. But when I open it is the Card view (My Assignments by priority, Overdue, Due Today, 7 days, etc.). We don't use this but use the Table view. How can I get that while in the App? Navigation is limited (My work, Created by mew, Projects, Help, About). Is the app nothing like the web version? Please help as I convinced the Director to let us use the app!

Hi Dianne Gibson,
Thank you for your question!
I'm afraid there is no Table view for your folders and projects in Microsoft Teams.
Once a folder or project is added to your channel in Teams, you can view the tasks from that folder/project in either the Tasklist or the Timeline:
The Timeline is similar to the Gantt chart in Wrike, except you can’t reschedule tasks in the MS Teams Timeline like you can on the Gantt chart in Wrike.
The Personal tab will show the tasks assigned to you in a dashboard-like fashion, with tasks divided to sections (My assignments by priority, Overdue, Due today, 7 days ahead, 30 days ahead):
You can also find the tasks created by you and the projects that were added as tabs in MS Teams by clicking "Created by me" and "Projects" in the Personal tab.
You can read more about Wrike's Microsoft Teams integration in our Help Center, or check out a recorded webinar here.
Please let us know if you have any questions 😊
Have a productive day!
