Overview

Firefly integrates with Microsoft Teams to provide rich notifications for various events and alerts. This integration enables teams to receive real-time updates about infrastructure changes, policy violations, drift detection, and other important events directly in their Teams channels.

Prerequisites

  • A Microsoft Teams workspace with administrative access

  • Appropriate permissions to create webhooks

  • Channels where you want to receive Firefly notifications

Setup Procedure

  1. Follow Microsoft's official guide to create an Incoming Webhook:

  2. In Firefly, select Settings > Integrations

  3. Select Add New > Teams

  4. Enter a descriptive name in the Nickname field

  5. Enter the Webhook URL

  6. Select Next > Done

Features Enabled

  • Real-time Notifications: Receive immediate alerts for important events

  • Rich Message Cards: Detailed, formatted messages with direct links to Firefly

  • Customizable Alerts: Configure which events trigger notifications

  • Channel-specific Routing: Send different types of alerts to different channels

  • Interactive Messages: Click through to Firefly directly from Teams notifications

Best Practices

  • Create dedicated channels for different types of notifications

  • Configure notification rules to avoid alert fatigue

  • Regularly review and update notification settings

  • Ensure the webhook connector remains active

  • Test the integration after setup to verify message delivery

Example Notifications

Teams messages from Firefly are formatted as rich cards and may include:

  • Alert notifications: "🚨 Firefly: New High Drift detected in Azure – 2 VMs have configuration drift"

  • Policy violations

  • Infrastructure changes

  • Asset status updates

Troubleshooting

  1. Webhook Issues:

    • Verify the webhook URL is valid and not expired

    • Check channel permissions

    • Confirm the webhook connector is active

  2. Notification Issues:

    • Review notification rules in Firefly

    • Check Teams channel message settings

    • Verify channel accessibility for team members

  3. Message Delivery:

    • Ensure the channel exists and is accessible

    • Check if the webhook URL was copied correctly

    • Verify network connectivity between Firefly and Teams
