Before getting started, you’ll first need to make sure WP Mail SMTP is [installed and activated](https://wpmailsmtp.com/docs/how-to-install-the-wp-mail-smtp-plugin/) on your WordPress site and that you’ve [verified your license](https://wpmailsmtp.com/docs/how-to-verify-your-wp-mail-smtp-license/).

## Accessing the Email Alerts Page

To begin setting up email alerts from the WordPress dashboard, go to **WP Mail SMTP » Settings** and click on the **Alerts** tab.

![Where to find Alerts in WP Mail SMTP Settings](https://wpmailsmtp.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/email-alert-settings.png)Once here, scroll down to the Microsoft Teams section. To use the Microsoft Teams integration, you’ll need to configure a webhook connection on the channel you’d like to receive the alert. Then, add the webhook URL you generated from Microsoft Teams to your site.

Start by toggling the **Microsoft Teams Alerts** option to the **ON** position.

## Creating a Webhook Connection

Next, log in to your [Microsoft Teams workspace](https://teams.microsoft.com/v2/). Once there, open the channel you’d like to configure to receive alerts. Then click on the **3 dot** icons next to the channel name to open additional settings.

![Type webhooks in search bar](https://wpmailsmtp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/type-webhook.png)Then, select the **Post to a channel when a webhook request is received** option.

![Select the post to channel template](https://wpmailsmtp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/post-to-channel-webhook.png)Next, you’ll need to enter a name for your webhook in the **Name** field. We suggest using a descriptive name that defines the purpose of the webhook connection.

![Enter webhook name](https://wpmailsmtp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/webhook-name.png)After that, click the **Next** button to continue.

![Click the next button](https://wpmailsmtp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/click-next.png)On the next page, you’ll need to select the team and channel where you’d like to send the notification from the **Microsoft Teams Team** and **Microsoft Teams Channel** dropdown, respectively.

![Select MS Team and Channel](https://wpmailsmtp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/select-ms-teams-channel.png)Then click the **Add workflow** button to complete the configuration.

![Pase webhook URL](https://wpmailsmtp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/paste-webhook-url.png)Next, either save your settings or [continue to add other integrations](https://wpmailsmtp.com/docs/setting-up-email-alerts/). To save your settings, scroll down and click the **Save Settings** button.
