Shared Teams channels give your team direct access to Langdock for questions, feedback, and use case discussions. We also use these channels to share product updates and announcements.
Shared channels are available for enterprise customers. Contact your Langdock account manager to get started.
We use B2B direct connect as it’s the most user-friendly and secure method, utilizing Microsoft Entra and exchanging tenant IDs.
