# Approve Type the Word for Microsoft Teams

> Grant Microsoft administrator consent so Type the Word can synchronize Education classes and rosters.

## Prerequisites

* A Microsoft Entra administrator for your school tenant
* A teacher who can begin Type the Word's Microsoft Teams setup with a school account
* Microsoft Education classes with current teacher and student memberships

## Grant administrator consent

<Steps>
  <Step title="Begin teacher setup">
    Have a teacher start [Microsoft Teams teacher
    setup](/microsoft-teams/teacher-setup).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open administrator consent">
    If Microsoft requires administrator approval, open the
    administrator-consent link supplied during setup.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Approve the application">
    Sign in with an administrator account for the same school tenant, review
    the requested Microsoft Education permissions, and accept them for the
    organization.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm approval">
    Confirm Type the Word reports that administrator consent was granted.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Administrator consent approves the application for the tenant. Teachers
  still sign in individually so Type the Word can synchronize the classes they
  teach.
</Note>

## Verify the handoff

Ask the teacher to restart Microsoft Teams sign-in and complete the first roster synchronization. Administrator setup is complete when the teacher reaches Type the Word without an approval-required error.

## Troubleshooting

* **Consent is denied:** Confirm the administrator belongs to the same tenant as the teacher.
* **A personal account opens:** Sign out and choose the school or work Microsoft account.
* **Teacher still sees approval required:** Generate a fresh consent link and verify approval completed for the correct tenant.
