Microsoft Teams Integration Improvements
Our team REALLY digs the new Wrike app within Teams! A few tweaks and you've got yourself a winner. Keep up the good work!
Some feedback/suggestions for the app (shown in below screenshot)
- Find some way to display the entire task name and project tag. Not sure what the best solution is...Reduce font size, wider columns, rows instead of columns, collapsible columns, something.
- If possible, it'd be nice to be able to filter the 'My work' tab by Project/Folder. Not a huge deal though since you can see the project/folder tags for each task.
- The horizontal scroll bar at the bottom is a tad faint/thin. It took a while to even realize I could scroll to the right.
Feedback/suggestion for the in-channel tab:
- In the Tasklist view, it would be REALLY nice to be able to filter tasks by assignee.
Feedback/suggestion for the channel connector (potential bot???):
- Not sure it's possible, but it would be great if the Wrike connector could @ tag the assignee(s) and any others who have been @ tagged in the task's comments.
- An even better (my opinion) solution would be to have a Wrike bot (added to a private Chat) that could contact/notify you in a similar manner as the channel connector. It would only contact you regarding updates to your assigned tasks or tasks for which you've been @ tagged in the comments (would follow similar rules to Wrike's inbox section).
Thanks again. Keep rockin'!
Hi Harrison, great to hear from you, and welcome to the Community 🙌
Thanks for this feedback, it's great to hear you're getting value from the integration and the suggestions you've made here are very valuable for our Product Team review. It's actually prompted me to create this feedback thread where the Product Team can review all feedback in the one place.
I've made the Product Team aware of this post, but feel free to comment again on the feedback thread as you continue to use the integration and have more feedback to share 🙂
Please take my vote to add project name to the task assigned in the My Work tab. As you can see you end up with a bunch of tasks labeled exactly the same. A big issue when trying to schedule your work
Is there any update on planned improvements with Teams? The "tasklist" view within channels on Teams is really limited and makes it not a very usable integration.
Hey everyone, thank you for your feedback here. It's been passed on to the Product team.
I don't have an update about this at the moment, but as soon as I do, I'll let you know 😊
(i) Tasks could be sorted so the order (on the left) is more manageable
Hi Tod Bassler, thank you for your detailed feedback in relation to the MS Teams integration. As you might have seen here, the team is looking into some potential improvements for the integration, so your feedback comes at a great time! Passing it on to the Product now 👍

We recently integrated Wrike into Teams.
While we are still learning there are a few wish list items we would love to see;
1. Calendar view accessible in Teams when adding to a teams tab.
2. The ability to personalize/make changes to the dashboard when logged into the App.
3. The ability to open a task from the timeline view.
Thank you for taking the time to listen and continue to improve this lovely tool!
Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback Kyrstan Mckay, much appreciated🤝
