Microsoft Teams integration: tender notifications in a channel

Each notification arrives as a card with a title, the message and, when it concerns a tender, a button that opens the tender in Tenderen.

• New tenders that match your alerts
• Deadline reminders for tenders you follow
• Changes to tenders you follow, such as a new deadline or new documents
• Reminders for requirement items assigned to you

1. In Microsoft Teams, add an Incoming Webhook to the channel that should receive notifications and copy the URL it gives you.
2. In Tenderen, go to Settings → Notifications, turn on Microsoft Teams and paste the URL.
3. Save, then send a test notification to check that the card arrives.

• Nothing arrives: check that the full URL was pasted and that Microsoft Teams is turned on. Tenderen refuses URLs that point at internal or unsafe addresses.
• Your organisation has turned off incoming webhooks: ask your Teams administrator to allow them for the channel. Tenderen needs an incoming webhook to post.

• Part of the Pro and Enterprise plans.
• One webhook URL per user. All of that user's notifications go to the same channel.
• The category switches under Settings → Notifications apply to email; Teams receives every notification Tenderen sends you.
• Notifications are one-way. You cannot act on a tender from Teams.

Can several people send notifications to the same channel?

Yes. Each user pastes the same webhook URL in their own notification settings.
