If you have used your SU NetID to create a personal Microsoft account (not recommended), you may be prompted to dictate whether you are trying to log into your "Work or school account" or "Personal account/Microsoft account". Select Work or school account or OneDrive for Business (if logging directly into OneDrive).
Now that you are logged into the account, select Teams. The location may vary depending on what screen you are on as well as your browser and operating system version.
