Why Use AdStatus with Microsoft Teams?

For marketing teams in the Microsoft ecosystem, AdStatus integrates seamlessly with Teams Workflows to deliver critical advertising platform alerts right in your channel.

Instant Notifications

When Meta Ads Manager, Google Ads, or Microsoft Advertising go down, your team gets notified in Teams within seconds. Stay ahead of campaign issues without constantly checking status pages.

Simple Setup

No admin approval needed! Use Teams Workflows (Microsoft's 2025+ recommended approach) to connect in just 2 minutes. Create a webhook, paste it in, done.

Beautiful Adaptive Cards

Alerts use Microsoft's Adaptive Cards format for rich, interactive notifications with emoji indicators, platform branding, and direct links to status pages.

Enterprise Security

Webhook URLs are encrypted and stored securely. AdStatus never accesses your Teams messages or data - it only sends alerts via the webhook you create.

How Teams Integration Works

AdStatus uses Microsoft Teams Workflows, the modern approach Microsoft recommends for sending messages to Teams channels. Here's how to set it up:

1
Create Workflow

In your Teams channel, click the ⋯ menu → Workflows → "Post to a channel when a webhook request is received"

2
Copy Webhook URL

Teams will generate a unique webhook URL. Copy it - it looks like https://prod-xxx.logic.azure.com/workflows/...

3
Connect AdStatus

Click "Add to Teams", create your account, and paste the webhook URL. We'll send a test message to confirm it works.

4
Start Monitoring

That's it! AdStatus monitors all platforms every 5 minutes and sends alerts to your Teams channel when issues are detected.

Why Workflows instead of a Teams App?

Microsoft recommends Workflows for simple notification scenarios. This approach is faster to set up (2 minutes vs 20+ minutes), doesn't require admin approval, and is officially supported by Microsoft for sending alerts to Teams.

Teams-Specific Features

No Admin Approval

Unlike traditional Teams apps, workflows don't require IT approval or admin consent. Any team member can set up AdStatus in their channel immediately.

Adaptive Cards

Alerts use Microsoft's Adaptive Cards format - the same rich formatting used by Microsoft's own services. Beautiful, consistent, and mobile-friendly.

Direct Links

Every alert includes an action button that opens the official platform status page, so your team can get detailed information instantly.

Enterprise-Ready

Works with all Microsoft 365 plans including Government Cloud and EDU environments. Webhook URLs are encrypted in transit and at rest.

Mobile Notifications

Teams mobile app notifications work seamlessly - your team stays informed even when away from their desk.

Visual Indicators

Alerts use emoji and color coding (⚠️ for warnings, 🔴 for critical issues, ✅ for resolutions) for at-a-glance status understanding.

Common Questions

No! Since AdStatus uses Teams Workflows (webhooks), you don't need IT or admin approval. Any team member can set up workflows in their channels immediately.

No. AdStatus only sends notifications when actual platform issues are detected. Most days you won't receive any alerts. We prioritize signal over noise.

Yes. Your webhook URL is encrypted using Fernet symmetric encryption before being stored in our database. It's only decrypted when needed to send alerts, and we never share it with third parties.

Currently, each AdStatus subscription supports one Teams channel. If you need alerts in multiple channels, you can create multiple workflows pointing to the same webhook, or contact us for multi-channel pricing.

Both receive the same alerts from the same monitoring system. The main difference is technical: Slack uses OAuth and supports thread replies for updates, while Teams uses webhooks (simpler setup, no admin approval). Choose based on which platform your team uses daily.
