Next, click on the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’. You will then be prompted to name your workflow. For example, you can use the name ‘When data is added to Notion, send it to Microsoft Teams’. After naming, click on ‘Create’ to proceed with the integration setup.

2. Connecting Notion to Pabbly Connect

Once connected, select the specific Notion database you want to monitor. This setup allows Pabbly Connect to capture any new entries automatically, ensuring that your team stays updated on the latest information.

3. Capturing Data from Notion for Microsoft Teams

After connecting Notion to Pabbly Connect, it’s time to capture the data. You will need to add a new item in your Notion database. For instance, input details such as the type of event, event name, description, date, and who will lead the event.

After entering the details, return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This action allows Pabbly Connect to fetch the newly added data from Notion. Ensure that the data appears correctly in the response, confirming that the connection is successful.

Once the data is captured, Pabbly Connect will check for new items every 8 hours. This polling mechanism ensures that any new data in Notion is automatically detected and prepared for sending to Microsoft Teams.

4. Sending Data to Microsoft Teams via Pabbly Connect

Now that you have captured the data from Notion, the next step is to send this data to Microsoft Teams using Pabbly Connect. Select Microsoft Teams as your action application and choose the action event ‘Send Message in Channel’.

• Choose the team and channel where you want the message to be sent.
• Compose your message using HTML format, mapping the data captured from Notion.

After composing your message, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This action will send the composed message to the selected Microsoft Teams channel, allowing your team to receive updates instantly.
