SIA for Microsoft Teams

Hiring updates need somewhere to land that people actually check. Connecting Microsoft Teams lets SIA post a direct message, a group chat, or a channel update straight into Teams, instead of you copying it out of chat and pasting it in yourself.

1. In Chat, open Connectors from the sidebar
2. Find the Microsoft Teams card and click Connect Microsoft Teams
3. A Microsoft sign-in tab opens — sign in with your Microsoft 365 account and approve the permissions listed
4. You're redirected back to Chat and the card now reads Connected

Once Microsoft Teams is connected, SIA can reach your colleagues directly inside Teams:

• Send a direct message to a colleague — give SIA their name or email and it resolves who that is and sends the message
• Post to a channel — in any team you belong to, so an update lands where the whole group already looks
• Pick the right person, chat, team, or channel from a list — rather than you having to type an exact matching name
• Read recent messages in a chat or channel — so SIA can catch you up on what's already been discussed before posting anything
• Preview the message before it sends — so you can ask for changes before anything goes out

DM Gautam on Teams that the candidate accepted the offer.

Post to the Hiring team's #interviews channel that the loop is complete.

Catch me up on what's been said in the Hiring team's #interviews channel.

1. Go to Connectors in the sidebar
2. On the Microsoft Teams card, click Disconnect

This revokes the Teams authorisation only — your other Microsoft connections, if you have them, are unaffected.
