Use Microsoft Teams with Automation
You can set up automation flows to send messages to Microsoft Teams channels (but not private channels) using the Send Microsoft Teams message action. Note that posting a message or adaptive card to a private channel isn't currently supported.
To set this up:
In Microsoft Teams, choose More actions () next to the channel name and choose Workflows, then Post to a channel when a webhook request is received.
Copy the webhook URL and paste the URL in the Send Microsoft Teams message action.
Markdown support
Microsoft Team messages support basic markdown for rich formatting. The only limitations are you can't insert:
Images
Inline HTML
HTML Blocks
Custom nodes
If you're using characters such as * , # and you want them to appear as characters in your message content, you need to escape them else they'll be performing a markdown function. You can do this surrounding them with backslashes e.g. \#\
