Send messages on teams on behalf of the app.
nitin1005 There are lots of ways to do this
The way that's most similar to Slack would be to use a Webhook connector, right click on a channel to get to connectors and choose incoming webhook, you;ll get a web url that you post messages to and they will appear in that channel as being from the app.
Another alternative is to develop a Bot to send pro-active messages to a channel, while this is harder to develop it's perhaps easier to deploy to multiple tenants. More on Bots -> Send proactive messages - Teams | Microsoft Docs

StevenC365 Thanks for your help.
I have few more queries for you.
1- What type of accounts do i need for this?
2- Do i have to take subscription of office365 and azure for whole development(creation to distribution of app ) or can i do this by using basic accounts?
Thanks.

1. No account, when you create the connector it can post to the channel, there isn't an account or authentication. In effect the webhook url includes a unique key used for authentication.
2. Not sure I understand.
