Integrations

Microsoft Teams Integration

Get DeadPing alerts posted directly to a Teams channel. Alerts appear as cards with color coding for down, recovery, and anomaly states. Pro plan required.

Setup

  1. In Microsoft Teams, navigate to the channel where you want alerts.
  2. Click the ⋯ (more options) next to the channel name → Connectors.
  3. Find “Incoming Webhook” and click Configure.
  4. Give it a name (e.g. DeadPing) and optionally upload an image.
  5. Click Create and copy the webhook URL — it looks like https://yourorg.webhook.office.com/webhookb2/…
  6. In DeadPing, go to Settings → Integrations, expand Microsoft Teams, paste the URL, and click Save.

Note: If you don't see Connectors, your Teams admin may need to enable them in the admin center.

Payload Format

DeadPing posts alerts using the MessageCard format. Cards are color-coded by alert type: red for down, green for recovery, and amber for anomaly.
