Connecting Custom GPTs to Microsoft Teams in 5 minutes (no coding required)
Building custom GPTs has never been easier like this before OpenAI released GPTs and Assistants. Let me introduce you to connect your custom GPT to your Microsoft Teams workspace. If you haven’t made one, check “How To Create Your Own Custom GPT: Beginner’s Complete Guide”.
How it Works
Before we jump into the integration, let me explain how it works:
- Build a custom GPT using OpenAI GPTs. We assume that you have already made one.
- Convert the custom GPT to an OpenAI Assistant so that Microsoft Teams can send API requests to it.
- Connect the OpenAI Assistant with Microsft Teams using PlugBear.
Simple, isn’t it? Let’s dive in.
1. Importing custom GPTs to PlugBear
Using PlugBear, you can easily convert your custom GPTs to OpenAI Assistants so that you can use them in your daily tools like Slack, Teams, or Zendesk.
- Sign up for PlugBear.io
- Visit the “LLM Apps” page.
- Add the PlugBear bookmark to your bookmark bar.
- Open your custom GPTs and click the bookmark.
2. Integrating it into your Microsoft Teams Workspace
PlugBear is a great no-code tool for connecting the GPTs/Assistant and Microsoft Teams.
Follow these simple steps:
- Add your Teams from the Channels page.
- Open the Connections page, click the “New Connections” button, and select your Microsoft Teams workspace and the Assistant to connect them.
All Done! Check the “Connecting the OpenAI Assistant to Slack with PlugBear” post if you need a more detailed guide with screenshots.
3. Having Fun
Invite @PlugBear to your Teams channel and ask the bot questions with a mention. Your custom GPTs will get the query and give you an answer.
Start Now
OpenAI enabled a lot of possibilities for the world. If you don’t know where to start, building an onboarding Q&A bot for new members can be a good starting point. Let me cover the simple way to build one soon.
Let your imagination run wild and make it a reality. And don’t forget to connect them to the world using PlugBear.
