Permissions and contacts in MS Teams®

MS Teams® may require an additional verification. Insert the new code that you receive
by mail.
This request may occur unpredictably, impacting "Double Ended Call" or "Send" tests
with failures. A specific log message indicates a failure resulting from a verification
block.
Known limitation: currently "Double Ended Call" does not properly detect such verifi-
cation screen requests.
It is possible to request to use a password (to be set) instead of a code sent via mail.
This can simplify the new login and "Don't lose access to your account" options.
