Grafana and Microsoft Workflows - Office connectors being deprecated

Grafana Alerting
1

Microsoft is deprecating the Office Connectors for Teams, e.g. their webhooks implementation to post to team channels. They are requiring migration to Microsoft Power Automate Workflows. It appears from the teams connector documentation it relies on Office Connectors. Does Grafana support Automate Workflows webhooks?

I am using Grafana 9.3 and was able to do tests with both office connector webhooks and workflows. It works fine with both. My initial concern was with the card format. And… reviewing the latest code changes in Github, I can see that there is code activity related to this area. So… no concerns here.

I’m using Grafana 11.0 and I just updated the webhook URL https://tensorenergyjp.webhook.office.com/webhookb2/xxxx with the new one https://prod-05.japaneast.logic.azure.com:443/workflows/… but I get an error

Failed to send test alert.: send notification to Teams: webhook failed validation:

Did you change anything else to test?

I use Grafana 11.1.1 and tested workflows. Ok, technically it works, but it is awful.

  1. it the message preview doesn’t show anything, but card. With webhook, I could see the message preview and understand what exactly I get in alert message. Now I see “card” and thats it.
  2. resolved messages has not been sent, when alert was resolved. I don’t know why. Also I can not much descriptive see error message from Grafana when I test contact point with workflows. Even trough the message was sent, Grafana show error.

As of now, Grafana does not natively support Microsoft Power Automate Workflows webhooks. Grafana traditionally integrates with services like Microsoft Teams via webhooks and APIs, but with the deprecation of Office Connectors for Teams, users may need to explore alternative methods for integration. To use Power Automate with Grafana, you would likely need to set up custom workflows or use other compatible connectors.
