Similar to how the Slack integration works, it would be nice to automate the push notification of x,y,and z to a channel within Microsoft Teams.

Yes please, as a Microsoft shop MS Teams integration would be superb. Increasingly coming across customers using MS Teams rather than Slack.

A possible option to integrate FME with a Microsoft Teams Channel would be the Microsoft Graph API:

We also have a web connection for Microsoft Graph on FME Hub:

Hi @gerhardatsafe I am wondering if you have a sample workbench to push the messages to Microsoft Team. Thank you.

This is really easy to do out of the box. Just right-click on a channel in Teams (not the team) and click "Connectors". Create a "Incoming webhook" in Connectors and copy the url.

Then, in FME, pass the url into a httpcaller transformer as the request URL, http method = post, Content Type = application/json and Upload Body = {"text": "FME messaging Teams"}

Now you can message the relevant team channel with that message

Is there any progress on a Teams Connector to be able to post into a chat?

Yeah this is pretty easy, learning how to do this with the HTTPCaller is a good thing to learn. I guess getting the authentication process could be tricky for some users though.

Is there any update on this idea? I would like to read an excel spreadsheet stored in MS Teams directly using FME if possible.

I just made one and it worked without authentication, is it really that simple or am I just being lucky as I have Teams open and I'm on VPN? It seems risking spam to have what is effectively an open message channel.
