Description

We need to document the full MVP deployment and configuration process, including setup timelines, automation options, training requirements, and critical prerequisites. This will help internal teams and customers plan for initial rollout and transition to production readiness.

### **Tasks**

* [ ] **Outline Setup Timeline**
* Manual deployment: ~90 min deployment + ~60 min configuration in Admin Settings
* Automated deployment: ~30 min total
* Highlight key differences and time savings between methods
* [ ] **Detail Training Requirements**
* Admin settings, groups, public workspaces, chat: 4–6 hrs
* Agents setup and management: 2–3 hrs
* Logging, scaling (App Service, Cosmos DB, Redis): 2 hrs
* *Optional for MVP, but required for production readiness*
* [ ] **Document Prerequisites**
* App registration with Microsoft Graph API permissions and role assignments
* Emphasize this as the most important prerequisite for successful deployment
* [ ] **Add Timeline Summary**
* Estimated total time for MVP setup and enablement: **1–2 weeks**
* Includes buffer for unknowns and environment-specific adjustments
* [ ] **Include Diagrams or Visuals (Optional)**
* Deployment flow (manual vs. automated)
* Graph API app registration and role dependency diagram
