Set up webhooks for Teams

Follow these instructions on Teams to setup incoming webhooks for your workspace.

​

Update Mage project settings

Once you’ve set up webhooks for Teams, you should have a webhook URL that Teams provides.

Here is an example webhook (yours may vary):

https://teams.webhook.office.com/webhookb2/B04XXXXGY67/IncomingWebhook/1UgUkao8pXXXXPmsuXXXX2lk

Follow these steps to add that webhook URL to your project settings:

1. Open the Mage tool in your browser (e.g. http://localhost:6789/).

2. Open a pipeline and start editing it (e.g. http://localhost:6789/pipelines/example_pipeline/edit).

3. In your left sidebar in the file browser, scroll all the way down and click on a file named metadata.yaml.

4. In the metadata.yaml file, add a section with the following configuration or update the existing notification_config section:

   notification_config:
     alert_on:
       - trigger_failure
       - trigger_passed_sla
   

   If you omit the alert_on section it will default to trigger_failure and trigger_passed_sla.

   Options:

   • trigger_failure: alert when a run of a trigger fails
   • trigger_success: alert when a run of a trigger succeeds
   • trigger_passed_sla: alert when a run of a trigger passes sla

5. In the metadata.yaml file, add the following values:

   notification_config:
     alert_on:
       ...
     teams_config:
       webhook_url:
         - 'https://teams.webhook.office.com/webhookb2/B04XXXXGY67/IncomingWebhook/1UgUkao8pXXXXPmsuXXXX2lk'
         - 'https://teams.webhook.office.com/webhookb2/B04XXXXGY67/IncomingWebhook/1UgUkao8pXXXXPmsuXXXX2lx'
   

   Change the webhook_url values to be the webhook URLs you created from Teams.

   The webhook_url must be a string if you are using version 0.9.73 or older and it only accepts one endpoint.

   teams_config:
       webhook_url: 'https://teams.webhook.office.com/webhookb2/B04XXXXGY67/IncomingWebhook/1UgUkao8pXXXXPmsuXXXX2lk'
   

​

What next?

Whenever a pipeline run is successfully completed or fails, a Teams message will appear in the channel you configured the webhook URL for.

Here is an example of what that message could look like:
