# Teams Shared Line Appearance
This article describes how to implement Microsoft Teams Shared Line Appearance with Azure Communication Services. Shared line appearance lets a user choose a delegate to make or handle calls on their behalf. This feature is helpful if a user has an administrative assistant who regularly handles the user's calls.
In the context of shared line appearance, a manager is a Teams user who authorizes a delegate to make or receive calls on their behalf. A delegate is a Microsoft 365 user who can make or receive calls on behalf of the delegator. For more information, see [Share line appearance](/microsoftteams/shared-line-appearance).
## Prerequisites
- An Azure account with an active subscription. See [Create an account for free](https://azure.microsoft.com/pricing/purchase-options/azure-account?cid=msft_learn).
- A deployed Communication Services resource. See [Create a Communication Services resource](../../quickstarts/create-communication-resource.md).
- A user access token to enable the calling client. For more information, see [Create and manage access tokens](../../quickstarts/identity/access-tokens.md).
- Licensing requirements for delegator and delegates. See [Teams Phone license](/microsoftteams/shared-line-appearance#license-required).
- Enable delegation and shared line appearance. See [Enable delegation](/microsoftteams/shared-line-appearance#enable-delegation-and-shared-line-appearance).
- Assign delegates using [Microsoft Teams Client](https://support.microsoft.com/office/share-a-phone-line-with-a-delegate-in-microsoft-teams-16307929-a51f-43fc-8323-3b1bf115e5a8) or [Teams PowerShell](/microsoftteams/shared-line-appearance#use-powershell).
- Learn more about [Team Shared Line Appearance in Azure Communication Services](../../concepts/interop/teams-user/teams-shared-line-appearance.md).
