MSKeith this can be done with Power Automate
- Go to https://make.powerautomate.com/
- Select Create
- Choose Scheduled Cloud Flow
- Add a Flow name (e.g. Regular Project Update)
- Add a starting date and time
- Select your repeat options (this may be limiting depending on your need)
- Select Create
- Select New Step
- Search for Post message in chat or channel (Microsoft Teams)
- Choose to post as the Flow Bot or User
- Follow the prompts to choose an existing channel or a group chat
- Enter the message to send
- Select Save
Below is an example, posting into a General channel in a team named MSFT.

Chelsea92 off the top of my head (haven’t tested), you could create a List that contains all the people and then use a “For Each” loop to send each person a message.
