# Configure Webhook Reception in Teams

> [!NOTE]
> **NOTE**: This documentation was written based on Microsoft Teams documentation at the time of release. Check [Teams](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/) for the most current documentation.

Teams has an incoming Webhook feature that does not require authentication. Teams uses a unique secret URL that is associated with a channel of a team. By sending POST requests to this URL with a JSON body that matches the expected schema, SysTrack is able to post messages to Teams.

## Limitations

The message size limit is 28 KB. When the size exceeds 28 KB, you receive an error. For more information, see [Limits and specifications for Microsoft Teams](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/limits-specifications-teams).

## Create Incoming Webhooks with Workflows for Teams

7. Click Done.

For more information, see [Create incoming webhooks with Workflows for Microsoft Teams](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/create-incoming-webhooks-with-workflows-for-microsoft-teams-8ae491c7-0394-4861-ba59-055e33f75498).
8. Use the unique webhook URL from step 6 to create a webhook recipient in Configure> Notifications > Recipients tab. See [Sensor Notification Recipients](/documentation/docs/sensor-notification-recipients).

## Webhook Body Template for Teams

Copy and paste this content into the Body section of the Add New Recipient dialog box. Edit as needed.

> [!TIP]
> **TIP**: For Teams, you need the URL you generated, it must use the POST method, and it needs a body like the one shown below.
