How it works
When a monitor confirms a failure, Uptrue dispatches an alert to your Teams channel using the standard Office 365 Connector MessageCard format. Resolved incidents fire as a green-themed message; new incidents fire as red.
Each alert includes the incident title, severity, monitored target, and current status — plus an "OpenUri" action that takes the on-call engineer straight to the monitor detail view in your Uptrue dashboard.
Setup in 4 steps
- 1In Microsoft Teams, open the channel you want to receive alerts in, click the three-dot menu → Connectors.
- 2Find "Incoming Webhook", click Configure, give it a name (e.g. "Uptrue Alerts"), optionally upload an icon, and click Create. Teams gives you a webhook URL.
- 3In Uptrue, open Dashboard → Alerts → New Channel, pick "Microsoft Teams" as the type, and paste the webhook URL.
- 4Test the channel, save it, and attach it to one or more monitors.
What you get
- MessageCard with red theme on incidents, green on resolutions
- Severity, target, and status as Teams-native facts
- "View Monitor" button that opens the monitor in your dashboard
- Same channel receives both incident-opened and incident-resolved alerts

- SSL certificate monitoring — 30, 14 and 3 days before expiry.
- DNS record monitoring — unauthorised record changes.
- API endpoint monitoring — body assertions, status codes, latency.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Microsoft Teams integration free?
The Teams integration requires a Lite plan or higher. The Free plan includes email alerts on 3 monitors. Lite (£1/month or £10/year) unlocks Teams, Slack, Telegram and signed webhook channels.
Where do I find the Incoming Webhook connector in Teams?
In the Teams channel where you want alerts: three-dot menu → Connectors → search for "Incoming Webhook" → Configure. You may need to be a Teams workspace admin to add new connectors. Microsoft's docs cover the steps in detail.
My organisation has disabled Office 365 Connectors. What can I do?
Some enterprise tenants disable third-party connectors. Workarounds: (1) ask IT to enable Incoming Webhook specifically for your channel, (2) use a Power Automate flow with the Uptrue webhook, or (3) use the Uptrue email channel and route into Teams via an Outlook/Teams email-to-channel rule.
Can I send alerts to multiple Teams channels?
Yes. Create one alert channel per Teams channel. You can attach multiple alert channels to a single monitor — useful for paging engineering on critical incidents and informing customer-support on degraded status.
Does the integration work with Teams in GCC / GCC High / DoD?
The standard Incoming Webhook connector is supported in commercial Microsoft 365 tenants. GCC, GCC High and DoD tenants have separate connector availability that may differ — please check with your Microsoft administrator before relying on this for regulated environments.
What happens if Teams is unreachable when an alert fires?
The alert is recorded as failed in the alerts table and the dispatch error is logged. Uptrue does not retry the dispatch. Best practice: pair Teams with at least one other channel (email, signed webhook) for redundancy on critical infrastructure.
