Website monitoring with Microsoft Teams alerts
Uptimia watches your websites, certificates and checkout flows from outside your network and posts every confirmed failure straight into your Microsoft Teams channel — what broke, since when, and how urgent it is. Your team reads it in the app they already have open, instead of hearing about the outage from a customer an hour later.
Overview
Last 7 DaysThe people who can fix it hear last
A customer hits a dead page, calls support, support raises a ticket, and it gets triaged to the engineer who can fix it. That hour went on delivery, not repair.
Watching the site is someone’s job
Refreshing the website all day is nobody’s actual job — so the site only gets checked once something already feels wrong.
The news arrives as a ticket
By the time the ticket is triaged and routed, the outage has been public for most of an hour — and the clock only starts for engineering now.
One outage, one Teams channel
A check fails and the alert posts to your channel — what broke and since when. Someone claims it, the team works in the replies, and the all-clear lands in the same place with the total downtime.
Connect Teams in three steps
You connect the channel from inside Teams itself. Nothing is installed on your servers, and no bot needs tenant approval.
Connect your channel
Point Uptimia at the Teams channel the alerts should land in, then press Test — a message arrives in the channel straight away. The click-by-click is in the setup guide below.
Choose what posts where
Outages to the Ops channel, certificate warnings to a quieter one, performance alerts to the web team. Each monitor names its own destination.
Add the safety net
If nobody picks it up, Uptimia keeps going — a text to whoever is on call, then the next name on the list. Planned work stays silent.
Connect Microsoft Teams to Uptimia
Every click, in the Help Center: building the Workflows webhook, pasting the URL into Uptimia, and attaching the Teams contact to the monitors that should post there.
More than whether the site is up
The portal answering doesn’t prove the certificate is valid, the domain is paid for or last night’s backup ran. Uptimia covers those failures too — uptime, transactions, page speed, SSL, domains, malware, blacklists, DNS records, API chains, servers, scheduled jobs and real-user data — and each posts to the channel you picked.
Send each alert to the channel that should see it
Each destination you add points at one channel, and each monitor picks the one it belongs in. So what has to be seen now sits apart from what gets reviewed on a Friday.

What sits behind the alert
Teams is the delivery route. Detection, evidence and the customer-facing side come from the Uptimia account underneath it.
Monitors, incidents and history
Monitors, incidents, response times and history — the overview for when a card isn’t enough.
Confirmed, not guessed
A failed check is re-run from up to 3 other checkpoints. Only their agreement sends a card.
Status pages for stakeholders
A public status page on your own domain tells customers and management the same story, automatically.
Reports for the review
Monthly uptime PDFs land in the inbox — evidence for SLAs and vendor reviews.
MTTA, measured
Every claim is timestamped, so response time is a number you can report, not a feeling.
Escalation, quiet hours, maintenance
Unclaimed cards climb to SMS and the next responder. Change windows and nights stay quiet.
How Microsoft Teams alerts work
Uptimia checks your websites, certificates, servers and key user flows from 171+ locations, and posts the confirmed failures straight into a Microsoft Teams channel. The message says which monitor failed, what went wrong, when it started and how urgent it is — and when the recovery comes, it posts again with how long the outage lasted.
Shared mailboxes don’t escalate
A shared mailbox has plenty of readers and no owner. Everyone can see the alert; no one is on the hook for it.
A channel has witnesses
Posted where the team already works, the alert is public, claimable and hard to quietly miss — and the claim goes on the record.
The cards Uptimia posts to Teams
One card per stage of the incident, escalation included — the channel ends up reading like its log.
See all 12 alert channels →| Card | Posts when | What it carries |
|---|---|---|
| Down alert | Independent checkpoints agree it failed | Monitor, what failed, since when — plus the Acknowledge button on escalation-policy incidents |
| Acknowledgement | Someone opens the Acknowledge link | Who claimed it, at what time, ladder paused |
| Escalation | Nobody claims it in time | The next responder — SMS, another channel, or both |
| Grouped incident | Related monitors fail together | One card for the group, a follow-up as others join |
| Recovery | The monitor comes back | The all-clear and how long it was down |
| Test card | You connect the webhook | Proof the wiring works, before anything real |
