-Learn how to send notifications to Microsoft Teams using Netdata's Agent alert notification feature, which supports dozens of endpoints, user roles, and more.
+# Microsoft Teams
-> ### Note
->
-> This file assumes you have read the [Introduction to Agent alert notifications](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/health/notifications/README.md), detailing how the Netdata Agent's alert notification method works.
-This is what you will get:

+<img src="https://netdata.cloud/img/msteams.svg" width="150"/>
-## Prerequisites
-You will need:
+You can send Netdata alerts to Microsoft Teams using Netdata's Agent alert notification feature, which supports dozens of endpoints, user roles, and more.
-- the **incoming webhook URL** as given by Microsoft Teams. You can use the same on all your Netdata servers (or you can have multiple if you like - your decision)
-- one or more channels to post the messages to
-- terminal access to the Agent you wish to configure
-## Configure Netdata to send alert notifications to Microsoft Teams
-> ### Info
->
-> This file mentions editing configuration files.
->
-> - To edit configuration files in a safe way, we provide the [`edit config` script](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#use-edit-config-to-edit-configuration-files) located in your [Netdata config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory) (typically is `/etc/netdata`) that creates the proper file and opens it in an editor automatically.
-> Note that to run the script you need to be inside your Netdata config directory.
->
-> It is recommended to use this way for configuring Netdata.

-Edit `health_alarm_notify.conf`, changes to this file do not require restarting Netdata:
+## Setup
-1. Set `SEND_MSTEAMS` to `YES`.
-2. Set `MSTEAMS_WEBHOOK_URL` to the incoming webhook URL as given by Microsoft Teams.
-3. Set `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_MSTEAMS` to the **encoded** Microsoft Teams channel name you want the alert notifications to be sent to.
- In Microsoft Teams the channel name is encoded in the URI after `/IncomingWebhook/`.
- You can define multiple channels like this: `CHANNEL1 CHANNEL2`.
- All roles will default to this variable if left unconfigured.
-4. You can also set the icons and colors for the different alerts in the same section of the file.
+### Prerequisites
-You can then have different channels per **role**, by editing `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_MSTEAMS` with the channel you want, in the following entries at the bottom of the same file:
+####
+- The incoming webhook URL as given by Microsoft Teams. You can use the same on all your Netdata servers (or you can have multiple if you like).
+- One or more channels to post the messages to
+- Access to the terminal where Netdata Agent is running
+
+
+
+### Configuration
+
+#### File
+
+The configuration file name for this integration is `health_alarm_notify.conf`.
+
+
+You can edit the configuration file using the `edit-config` script from the
+Netdata [config directory](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/configure/nodes.md#the-netdata-config-directory).
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
+sudo ./edit-config health_alarm_notify.conf
+```
+#### Options
+
+The following options can be defined for this notification

+| MSTEAMS_WEBHOOK_URL | set `MSTEAMS_WEBHOOK_URL` to the incoming webhook URL as given by Microsoft Teams. | | True |
+| DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_MSTEAMS | Set `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_MSTEAMS` to the encoded Microsoft Teams channel name you want the alert notifications to be sent to. | | True |
+
+##### DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_MSTEAMS
+
+In Microsoft Teams the channel name is encoded in the URI after `/IncomingWebhook/`. You can define multiple channels like this: `CHANNEL1` `CHANNEL2`.
+
+All roles will default to this variable if left unconfigured.
+
+You can have different channels per role, by editing `DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_MSTEAMS` with the channel you want, in the following entries at the bottom of the same file:
```conf
role_recipients_msteams[sysadmin]="CHANNEL1"
role_recipients_msteams[domainadmin]="CHANNEL2"

+##### Basic Configuration
+
+
+
+```yaml
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Microsoft Teams (office.com) global notification options
SEND_MSTEAMS="YES"
MSTEAMS_WEBHOOK_URL="https://outlook.office.com/webhook/XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX@XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX/IncomingWebhook/CHANNEL/XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX"
DEFAULT_RECIPIENT_MSTEAMS="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
+
+```
+
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Test Notification
+
+You can run the following command by hand, to test alerts configuration:
+
+```bash
+# become user netdata
+sudo su -s /bin/bash netdata
+
+# enable debugging info on the console
+export NETDATA_ALARM_NOTIFY_DEBUG=1
+
+# send test alarms to sysadmin
+/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test
+
+# send test alarms to any role
+/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test "ROLE"
```
-## Test the notification method
+Note that this will test _all_ alert mechanisms for the selected role.
+
-To test this alert notification method refer to the ["Testing Alert Notifications"](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/health/notifications/README.md#testing-alert-notifications) section of the Agent alert notifications page.
