Acrobat for Microsoft Teams and Acrobat for SharePoint OneDrive allows you to change the following settings:
- Disable paid tools
- Allow unified sign-in for all users
- Allow unified sign-in with company or school account
- Hide social login options
- Prevent users from creating an account from the sign-in screen
- Suppress welcome bot notification (Microsoft Teams only)
- Add a custom link to the company’s internal licensing portal
- Customize GenAI touchpoints for anonymous and free users
- Choose if the Bot notifies users when a transcript is ready (Microsoft Teams only)
When you turn on the 'Disable paid tools' setting, the paid tools are greyed out in the Acrobat viewer for Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, or OneDrive for non-signed-in and free users. Acrobat Home page also doesn't display the paid tools.
If the setting is turned off, all users, regardless of sign-in status or account type, will see paid tools. Non-signed-in users are asked to log in, while free account users are prompted to seek paid tool access from the organization admin.
When you enable the Require users to sign in with the same email address used to sign into Microsoft option, the email address used for signing into Microsoft automatically populates and locks for editing in the sign-in screen when a non-signed-in user selects Sign in. This ensures users can’t sign in to Acrobat for Microsoft integrations using personal credentials.
When you enable this setting, users with an email ID linked to both personal and work/school accounts must always sign in with their work/school account, as the personal account option becomes unavailable.
When you enable the Hide social login options setting, the sign-in with Google, Facebook, Apple, or Microsoft don't appear during the sign-in process.
With this setting enabled, users won’t have the Create an account option visible to them on the sign-in window.
Currently, the Acrobat bot automatically sends a chat message to end users upon the installation of the Acrobat app. You can turn off this message by enabling the 'Suppress welcome not notification' setting.
You can guide your free users to apply for a paid Acrobat license through your organization's established process. You can add the 'Request a license' link to your internal licensing portal at the following places in Acrobat:
For non-signed-in users:
- Under the Tools tab in the Acrobat PDF viewer
- In the Acrobat Home tab
For free signed-in users:
- In the Tools pane of the Acrobat viewer
- In the Acrobat Home tab
Note:
If a free user selects a paid tool, they get a message saying that their plan doesn't support premium tools and a link to Request a license.
You can enable or disable the GenAI touchpoints for non-signed-in users and those without GenAI entitlements. When disabled, the Generative Summary and AI Assistant touchpoints are greyed out and the feature is inaccessible for these users in the Acrobat viewer.
You can choose whether the Acrobat bot sends notifications to your users when a transcript is available. When the Disable meeting transcript notification toggle is turned off, the meeting organizer will receive a message from the Acrobat app at the end of their scheduled recorded meeting. Users can easily generate a meeting summary by selecting any of the provided questions. To use this feature, users should ensure that notifications for the Acrobat for Microsoft Teams app are enabled. If GenAI touchpoints are disabled, but this feature is enabled, the notification will only be sent to users with access to GenAI.
