Microsoft Configuration
------------------------
.. _21.1|VOSS-847:
An organization using Microsoft to manage UC provisioning requires
a number of different portals in a tenant: Azure, Microsoft 355 Admin Center, and (once users
are licensed through Microsoft Office 365), a portal on the Microsoft Teams side for telephony.
MS Exchange can also be added to the tenant.
VOSS Automate combines these functions into a single management interface, allowing service
providers to import data from multiple Microsoft tenants and to manage these customers
(or tenants) from a single portal and login.
The diagram describes the initial configuration required to integrate Microsoft with VOSS Automate:
* You will need to install and configure a Microsoft Windows PowerShell Proxy server (one or more).
This is to allow VOSS Automate to access Azure via the PowerShell. For details, see :ref:`pshell-proxy-setup`
* Once the Microsoft Windows PowerShell service is installed, you will use the IP address and
credentials of the proxy server to configure the Microsoft tenant.
