Schedule daily recurring messages in Teams chat channels
This is my first post on this site!
How do I set up a recurring message in a Teams chat channel? I want to remind my team daily at a specific time to put their project stand up status into our project channel. I'm assuming this would be a bot? If so, how can I find the bot?
Thank you,
Susan Keithley
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.
- This worked beautifully for a while. Now mine will not run unless I select Run. Any work around?
- After I create a flow, It will show the Reoccurrence. However, it does not say "Next Step" I'm not sure if that's a new update or how to fix that problem so I can start creating flows.
I followed these instructions, but the message keeps repeating over and over. How do I get it to only send once?
Stephen1605 Can you take a screenshot? What's your recurrence set to?
