In this post I will cover the steps to add incoming webhook to a Teams channel. Incoming webhooks are special type of Connector in Teams that allows external app to share content in team channels.
The Incoming Webhook connector enables external services to notify you about activities that you want to track. Once you configure the Incoming Webhook for a channel, you get an URL link. You can copy this URL and go to the service that you want to send data to your group.
To know more about posting external requests to Teams with incoming webhooks, refer this article.
Most of all you must check your team’s settings for member permissions. If you have set Allow members to create, update, and remove connectors to Yes, any team member can add, modify, or delete a connector.
