saigkill - You can send the notification in Teams Channel from outside of Teams using following 2 ways:
1. Incoming webhook.
2. Activity feed notification

Using Bot to send notification from outside of Teams it's not feasible.

Thanks,

    Hello Nivedipa-MSFT. Thank you for responding. I have some further questions.

    What would be the workflow of a activity feed notification?

    As far as i understand, I get a API request (my app is a web api, which gets input from a neighbour system)  to my app with a model, what contains all needed information. And i send this via a Graph-API-Request (like https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-send-activityfeednotifications?tabs=http#request-5) to Teams. Is this right?
