Inside the Viva Connections desktop app, or BYO Viva app

Yesterday Microsoft released the anticipated set of scripts required for you to add the Microsoft Viva Connections app to your Microsoft Teams environment. It’s a very simple approach that only requires you to download a PowerShell script, install the latest Microsoft SharePoint Online PowerShell module and then answer a set of questions, and voila you have the Viva Connections Desktop app ready for installation in Microsoft Teams. Note: as the time of writing this and testing the PowerShell script, I was not able to download the required SharePoint Online PowerShell module and received an error while running the script. The latest module I could install/find did not have the Get-SPOIsCommSite cmdlet. However, it’s only required for validation that the site you specify is a Communications Site, and if you’re sure about this you can safely just comment out those lines in the beginning of the script.
