Let's Create a Notion and Microsoft Teams Integration Flow
Let's get started by creating a flow that integrates Notion with Microsoft Teams!
We'll be using Yoom to proceed with the integration of Notion and Microsoft Teams without any coding. If you don't have a Yoom account yet, please create one using this registration form.
[What is Yoom]
This time, we'll create a flow bot that transfers data from Notion to Microsoft Teams with just one click!
The creation process is broadly divided into the following steps:
Integrate Notion and Microsoft Teams with My Apps
Copy the template
Set up triggers in Notion and actions in Microsoft Teams
■Overview The "Notify Microsoft Teams with one click from Notion" workflow is a business workflow that quickly shares updates from Notion to Microsoft Teams. It is useful when you want to smoothly share information within the team or avoid missing important updates. ■Recommended for ・Those who manage projects in Notion and want to quickly share information with the team ・Business users who use Microsoft Teams daily and want to strengthen integration with Notion ・Managers who want to reduce the time lag in information sharing and facilitate team communication ・IT personnel who want to automate manual notification tasks in business workflows ■Notes ・Please integrate Yoom with both Notion and Microsoft Teams. ・Microsoft365 (formerly Office365) has a home plan and a general corporate plan (Microsoft365 Business), and if you are not subscribed to the general corporate plan, authentication may fail. ・Please refer to the following for how to set triggers using the Chrome extension. https://intercom.help/yoom/en/articles/8831921
Connecting My App first will make the subsequent settings proceed smoothly. First, let's connect your current Notion with Yoom. Select My App → "+ Add" from the left side of the Yoom page.
Search for Notion. Before connecting, please create a database like the one below. (Detailed settings such as headers can be changed later.)
Once logged in, please allow access to the page you want to access.
Next, connect with Microsoft Teams. As before, select My App → New Connection from the left side of the Yoom page. When the sign-in screen appears, please enter your email address and password.
※Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) has both a home plan and a general business plan (Microsoft 365 Business), and if you are not subscribed to the general business plan, authentication may fail.
Once the connection with Notion and Microsoft Teams is complete and displayed in My App, it's OK.
Step 2: Copy the Template
From here, we will create the flow. Open the template page and click 'Try it'.

As you proceed, the template will automatically be copied to your workspace, and the following screen will be displayed.
Select OK and proceed to the next step. The template will be saved in My Projects. You can change the template name if necessary. Click on My Projects on the left to display the template you just copied. Click on the ellipsis (...) on the right and select Edit.
Step 3: Set Notion Trigger
Now, let's set up the app trigger. Select "Select and launch a page on the database".
You can change the title as you like. Check the account information you just linked and install the Chrome extension trigger. For more details, please refer to here.
Proceed to the next step and set the URL.
For this test, we will use the following database. Hover over the row where you want to activate the flow bot, and enter the URL with the page open as shown below in the sample field.
Return to the flow bot and click Test. If the integration is successful, the message content will be displayed in the output at the bottom of the screen. By quoting this output when setting the next action, you will achieve data integration between Notion and Microsoft Teams!
Please check the displayed content and link the database as shown in the image.
Proceed to the next step and set the conditions for the record you want to retrieve as follows.
Test this as well, and if the output is obtained, save it.
Step 5: Set to Send Message to Microsoft Teams Channel
Next, to notify Microsoft Teams of the information retrieved from Notion, click "Send Message to Channel".
As before, check the linked account information and proceed to the next step. Set the required fields.
Team ID & Channel ID: Please select from the options as shown in the image.
Message Content: Please set it using the output obtained earlier. ※ If you set a fixed page title here, it will be notified every time the flow is activated, so be sure to select from the output. By using the output, you can use the values obtained by the trigger as they are.
Other items can be set as desired. Once the settings are complete, test and save.
Step 6: Turn ON the Trigger to Complete Preparation
When the following image is displayed, turn on the trigger. With this, all settings are complete, so let's check if it is notified to Microsoft Teams with one click from Notion.
This was the method for "Notifying Microsoft Teams with one click from Notion".

I have gained approximately three years of experience in the financial sector since graduating. Due to the nature of the industry, there were many manual tasks, and I often thought that automating them would allow us to focus on other work. It was during this time that I discovered Yoom. As I write blogs, I am continually impressed by the convenience of Yoom. I strive to maintain a clear and understandable structure.
