Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require talvbansal/laravel-ms-teams-notification-channel

Setting up the Connector

Please refer to this article for setting up and adding a webhook connector to your MS Team's channel.

Then, configure your webhook url:

// config/services.php
...
'ms-teams' => [
    'webhook_url' => env('MS_TEAMS_WEBHOOK_URL', 'WEBHOOK URL HERE')
],
...

You can change this to be whatever you like so if you have multiple teams you want to send notifications to you could do the following:

// config/services.php
...
'ms-teams' => [
    'developers_webhook_url' => env('MS_TEAMS_DEVELOPERS_WEBHOOK_URL'),
    'helpdesk_webhook_url' => env('MS_TEAMS_HELPDESK_WEBHOOK_URL'),
],
...

As long as you remember to route the notifications to the correct team.

Usage

You can now use the channel in your via() method inside the Notification class.

Notifications

use NotificationChannels\MsTeams\MsTeamsChannel;
use NotificationChannels\MsTeams\MsTeamsMessage;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;

class InvoicePaid extends Notification
{
    public function via($notifiable)
    {
        return [MsTeamsChannel::class];
    }

    public function toMsTeams($notifiable)
    {
        $url = url('/invoice/' . $this->invoice->id);

        return MsTeamsMessage::create()
            // Optional recipient user id.
            ->to(config('services.ms-teams.webhook_url'))
            // Markdown supported.
            ->content("Hello there!\nYour invoice has been *PAID*")
            // (Optional) Inline Buttons
            ->button('View Invoice', $url)
            ->button('Download Invoice', $url)
            // (Optional) Supporting images
            ->image('https://source.unsplash.com/random/800x800?animals,nature&q='.now())
            ->image('https://source.unsplash.com/random/900x600?building,car&q='.now());
    }
}

Routing the message

You can either send the notification by providing with the webhook url to the recipient to the to($url) method like shown in the above example or add a routeNotificationForMsTeams() method in your notifiable model:

...
/**
 * Route notifications for the MS Teams channel.
 *
 * @return int
 */
public function routeNotificationForMsTeams()
{
    return config('services.ms-teams.webhook_url');
}
...

Available Message methods

title(''): (string) Notification title, does not support markdown.
content(''): (string) Notification message, supports markdown..
button($text, $url): (string) Adds an inline "Call to Action" button. You can add as many as you want.
image($url): (string) Adds an inline image from the given url. You can add as many as you want.
