Format a Microsoft Teams message
If a Microsoft integration is enabled for your organization, you can send notifications to Teams channels from a Teams export. See Export to Microsoft Teams.
This document describes specific syntax you can use to format text and create hyperlinks when sending Teams messages from Sigma.

The ability to send Teams messages requires the following:
- The Microsoft integration must be enabled for your organization.
