Microsoft Teams Integration with Orion Alerts

With the new release of Microsoft Teams, I got a tad curious and went to see what integrations were available.

Much like Slack, PagerDuty, and  a host of others; Teams gleefully accepts incoming webhooks as a native integration. Below is a summary of how to achieve this in your Teams environment.

Step 1:

As an administrator of your organization's Team software, login to your Teams desktop application and click on the Team that you wish to add your integration to, then select "Connectors"

Step 2:

Search for "Incoming Webhook" and click "Add"

Step 3:

Name your new Webhook, add an optional Icon, and click "Create"

Step 4:

Copy your URL to be used with your alert action in a moment

Step 5:

At this point, you should see that you have a newly configured Webhook in your Connectors list and you should also have a new message in your Team reflecting this addition as well

Step 6:

Configure an alert action (Send a GET or POST Request To A Web Server) and include your Webhook URL and associated payload (example below)

Step 7:

Enjoy your new feed of alerts!

Here's the payload snippet I am using in my action at present:

{
  "title": "ALERT TRIGGER: ${N=SwisEntity;M=Caption} is currently ${N=SwisEntity;M=Status}",
  "text": "DEVICE: [${N=SwisEntity;M=Caption}](${N=SwisEntity;M=DetailsUrl})
  IP ADDRESS: ${N=SwisEntity;M=IP_Address}
  VENDOR: ${N=SwisEntity;M=Vendor}
  MODEL: ${N=SwisEntity;M=MachineType}
  [ALERT DETAILS](${N=Alerting;M=AlertDetailsUrl})
  [ACKNOWLEDGE THIS ALERT](${N=Alerting;M=AcknowledgeLink})"
}

Please note that there is some good information to be found in the API Reference as well: Office 365 Connectors API Reference - Outlook Dev Center

Enjoy!
