Microsoft Learning: Connect web services to Microsoft Teams with webhooks and Office 365 Connectors

Learn how to connect your custom web services to Microsoft Teams using webhooks and Office 365 Connectors

I work with Microsoft Learning to publish & maintain multiple self-paced learning modules related to Microsoft 365. These modules are primarily used as self-paced study resources for developers preparing to take the MS-600 exam, the only prerequisite to achieve the Microsoft 365 Certified: Teams Application Developer Associate certification. This is one of those modules.

Webhooks and connectors are a simple way to connect your web services to channels and teams inside Microsoft Teams. Outgoing webhooks allow your users to send text messages from a channel to your web services. Connectors allow users to subscribe to receive notifications and messages from your web services. There are two types of connectors available in Microsoft Teams: incoming webhooks and Office 365 connectors.

In this module, you’ll learn about webhooks and connectors and how to implement them in Microsoft Teams channels.

  • Demonstrate how to create and use an outgoing webhook for a Microsoft Teams channel
  • Demonstrate how to create and use an incoming webhook for a Microsoft Teams channel
