Office 365/Microsoft teams alert channel

To send alert notifications from Instana to Office 365 or Microsoft Teams in real time, create an Office 365/Microsoft teams alert channel.

Creating an Office 365/Microsoft teams alert channel

The alert notifications are sent to Office 365 or Microsoft Teams by using an Incoming Webhook. You need to set up an Incoming Webhook for the Office 365/Microsoft teams alert channel integration, see Post external requests to Teams with Incoming Webhook.

Then, create an Office 365/Microsoft teams alert channel by clicking Settings > Team Settings > Events & Alerts > Alert Channels > Add Alert Channel in the Instana UI.
