Since Microsoft announced the deprecation of connectors, the notification plugin for Microsoft Teams was adjusted to use workflows.

Deprecation note: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/microsoft365dev/retirement-of-office-365-connectors-within-microsoft-teams/

To configure a workflow within Microsoft Teams:

• Click the 3 dots on a channel and select “Workflows”
• Choose "Post to a channel when a webhook request is received"
• Choose name for the workflow, e.g. "Checkmk"
• Select team and channel where the webhook should post to
• Copy webhook URL

For further informations please see section "How do I transition from Office 365 connectors to Workflows?" in the deprecation note.

To configure the notification plugin within Checkmk:

• Post copied webhook URL to "Webhook URL" of your notification rule for MS Teams

If you used custom "Details for host notifications" or "Details for service notifications", the line break "<br>" has to be replaced by "\u00A0\n".

As we now use Adaptive Cards instead of Message Cards, we can no longer use colors.
