Microsoft Teams
Post messages to Microsoft Teams channels (Microsoft Graph, OAuth2).
OCNORA ships 6 typed Microsoft Teams operations and 1 trigger. Each node has a schema-driven form, input and output tables beside its settings, and is pre-flighted by Workflow Health before your first real run.
Before you connect Microsoft Teams
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0
- Credential
- {"client_id", "client_secret", "refresh_token"}
- Connection test
- Available: the stored credential can be checked against the provider when you add it. This is not a record that a test was run or passed.
- Prerequisites
- The refresh token needs ChannelMessage.Read.All to watch a channel, or Chat.Read to watch a chat — Graph refuses a subscription whose credential cannot read the resource. Connect-with-Microsoft does not mint Teams connections yet, so the refresh token has to be supplied on the connection directly. Publishing also needs MANTLE_APP_PUBLIC_BASE_URL set to an https URL Graph can reach: it probes that URL before it will create the subscription.
Prerequisites are taken from the connection notes in this provider’s node contracts; each node’s reference page says which apply to it.

A sample Microsoft Teams workflow
- 1Messagetrigger.teams_eventStart a run when a message is posted, edited or deleted in a Teams channel or chat.
- 2List Channelsteams.list_channelsChannels in a team — where a channel_id comes from.
- 3Send Chat Messageteams.send_chat_messagePost to a 1:1 or group chat (a direct message).
An outline built from this provider’s node contracts, not a recorded run. Each step’s output fields are available to the next in the field picker.
Every node below has a reference page: what it does, the connection it needs, its config fields with types, constraints and examples, and the shapes it emits.

Templates that use Microsoft Teams
- Jira issue updates to a Microsoft Teams channelCreated and updated Jira issues are announced in the Teams channel the squad actually watches.
- Incident webhook to Slack and Microsoft TeamsOne webhook from your monitoring tool announces the incident in both Slack and a Teams channel.
- Teams channel message to a Jira issueA message in a watched Teams channel raises a Jira issue, so an ask in chat does not get lost.
- Daily standup digest from Notion to TeamsQuery the standup database in Notion each morning and post it to the team's Teams channel.
Where Microsoft Teams fits
Microsoft Teams questions
- How does OCNORA authenticate with Microsoft Teams?
- With a stored OAuth 2.0 credential, shaped {"client_id", "client_secret", "refresh_token"}. A connection test can check it when you add it.
- What can I automate with Microsoft Teams?
- 6 typed operations and 1 trigger, each with a reference page listing its config fields and the shapes it emits.
- What if the Microsoft Teams operation I need is not listed?
- Where Microsoft Teams has an HTTP API, call it from the HTTP node with the same credential, or describe the step to the AI builder, which asks our team for a typed node when one is missing.
- Are there templates that use Microsoft Teams?
- Yes: 4 templates, listed above.
- How are Microsoft Teams calls controlled?
- Every call and every run step is audited, runs count against the execution budget, and Workflow Health pre-flights the workflow when you save it.
