Microsoft Teams is a cloud-based collaboration platform included in Microsoft 365. It combines chat, video conferencing, file sharing, and application integration into a single interface. Teams is widely used across organizations for real-time communication, remote work coordination, and collaborative project management.

In Wiresk, Microsoft Teams can act as a notification and alerting endpoint. You can configure Flows to automatically send messages to Teams channels whenever key actions occur in your connected apps or systems.

Prerequisite:

1. Microsoft Teams Access
You must have access to a Microsoft 365 account with permission to:
• Create or configure a channel inside a Team
• Add connectors to that channel

2. Create an Incoming Webhook in Teams
To allow Wiresk to send messages into a Teams channel, you need to set up a webhook endpoint in Microsoft Teams

A connection to your Microsoft Teams is needed so we can sync it with our platform.

  1. Go to your Teams app interface and select the Chat tab.
  2. Click on the Ellipsis button and select “Your teams and channels“.

There are two ways to connect your app to Wiresk:

  • In “My apps” section, where you can manage your connections (select or create your group first to get access to this section, refer to the Group system ).
  • While building your Flow, you can easily establish a connection to your app directly within the Flow builder. This can be done during the setup of either a Trigger or a Method.

This guide explains how to set up a connection in “My apps” section, which is essentially the same process as creating one on-the-go.

We have integrated the MS Teams Webhook URL into Microsoft app connection.
  • On your Wiresk’s Dashboard, select your Group.
  • On the left panel, go to “My apps” and select Screenshot 2025 04 08 at 9.58.41 in the morning Microsoft Teams Connection & Method
  • Search “Microsoft” in the search field or select it in the apps list.

On the connection settings panel:

  1. Name your connection
  2. Select the connection tab “Microsoft Teams Webhook URL“
  3. Paste your Incoming Webhook URL that you previously copied.
  4. Click on the “Create” button.

Voila! Your Microsoft Teams Webhook URL connection is ready. You can now use it to build your Flows.

Now that Microsoft Teams is linked to Wiresk, you’re ready to start building Flows.

Simple steps to create a Flow ↓
  • Select your Group, then on the Flow management screen click on “Create Flow”.

Select the Trigger

It’s important to note that Microsoft Teams integration does not currently include any Triggers.
Flows can be executed by multiple Triggers, depending on the desired workflow. For example, you could use scheduled Triggers with different recurrence rules alongside a Webhook Trigger for immediate, event-driven runs of the Flow. If you choose to “Run Once“, the Flow will execute using only one Trigger and its sample data.
  • On the Flow settings panel, name the Flow that you want to create.
  • Add your Triggers by clicking on the Wiresk 2025 05 02 at 15.00.40 Microsoft Teams Connection & Method next to “All Triggers”.
  • On the Trigger selection screen, search your app or select it from the list below the screen.

  • Select your preferred Trigger on the next screen and customize its settings.

As mentioned in “How to connect your app to Wiresk” above, during your Trigger settings, you can create a new connection to your apps at this stage.

Check here for a detailed Tutorial step-by-step on how to create a Flow.

Add a Method to your Flow

The Method will perform a specific task on a particular app or service you’ve connected to Wiresk like get info or send emails.

You can add at least 1 or multiple Methods for complex Flows (a maximum of 255 Methods).
  • On the Flow builder screen, click on the plus button (+) next to the Trigger icon.

Add Wiresk Tools to your Flow

If you want to build a complex Flow, Wiresk offers a selection of tools at your disposal. Refer to Wiresk’s Tools

To add Tools in your Flow, Follow the same step as adding the Methods.

  • On the Flow builder screen, click on the plus button (+) then just click on the “Tool” tab and select the Tool that you want to add.
You can refer to “How to Create a Flow” tutorial for more detailed instructions, including step-by-step guidance on mapping and configuration.
This Method allows you to send messages (incoming webhook) to a Teams channel.

For more detail, see Microsoft Teams reference on ⁠Incoming Webhook.

After setting up your Flow, you can choose to:

  • “Run once”, your Flow will run only a single time. You can use this function to test your Flow.
  • “Run Scheduler” will automate your Flows with the recurrence rule you previously defined.


For more details, refer to How to run a Flow tutorial in our Help Center.
 
If you are using a Webhook Trigger, the Flow will initiate automatically when a webhook is received from your connected apps. This means that the Flow is automated without a scheduler and will run until you deactivate the Flow manually. Refer to Webhook documentation in our Help Center.
