Send monitor and activity notifications to Microsoft Teams

Sending monitor and activity notifications are separate integrations from the Postman app for Teams. Install them from Postman, rather than from within Teams.

You can send the results of Postman Monitor runs to Teams. You can also send notifications about Postman team activity to Teams. Before configuring either integration, you must create a webhook connector in Teams.

Create a Microsoft Teams webhook URL

Microsoft Teams requires certain permissions to add a connector to a channel. Learn more about managing Microsoft 365 connectors and custom connectors.

To configure a Microsoft Teams integration, you'll first need to create a Microsoft Teams webhook URL.

1. Sign in to your Microsoft Teams account.
2. Create a new channel, or select an existing channel where you want to set up the integration.
3. Select More options next to the channel name and select Manage channel.
4. In the Connectors section, select Edit.
5. Search for "Incoming Webhook" in the list of available connectors and select Add.
6. Enter a name to identify this webhook later. You can also add an image that appears whenever the webhook posts a message.
7. Select Create. This generates a webhook URL you can use to post messages to this channel.
8. Copy the webhook and save it for later.

For more help creating an incoming webhook, see the Microsoft Teams documentation.
