As a newcomer to Microsoft Teams, and spoiled Slack veteran, first thing I’ve wanted to recreate is bugsnag integration, so that we can take advantage of notification system and act quickly upon issues users of our app run into. Anyway, step one was creating #crash-reporting channel, and putting the connector in use.

So, even though bugsnag offers list of integrations for all sorts of tools, Teams doesn’t seem to be one of them at the first glance.

Alas, there’s a way! All it takes are few simple steps to get the things running:

  1. Make sure you’ve added bugsnag connector to the Teams (more info here).

2. Assuming you’ve created some sort of crash reporting channel exclusively for this purpose (recommended, but you can leverage one of the existing ones if that fits more), right click on it and chose “Connectors”:

3. Pick it from the list of existing connectors and hit “Configure”:

From there, just go with the flow:

Add a name for the connection, copy webhook URL as you’ll need to set it up in Teams.

Going back to bugsnag side now. Click on “Settings” > “Integrations”, and pick “Webhook”.

After that, it comes to populating few extra fields (webhook URL, and picking your preferences when it comes to types of events you’d like to be notified about):

That’s about it! Enjoy!
