# 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.

### Connecting Microsoft Teams

[Video: Connecting Microsoft Teams](https://senseloaf.guides.markdrop.in/docs-assets/import/sia-connectors/sia-for-microsoft-teams/connecting-microsoft-teams.mp4)

1. In Chat, open [**Connectors**](https://sia.senseloaf.ai/settings/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**

### What you can do once 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

### Try it in chat

```text wrap title="Send Message"
DM Gautam on Teams that the candidate accepted the offer.
```

```text wrap title="Share Updates with Team"
Post to the Hiring team's #interviews channel that the loop is complete.
```

```text wrap title="Quick Updates"
Catch me up on what's been said in the Hiring team's #interviews channel.
```

> **Warning**
>
> Nothing gets sent without your approval. SIA shows you the drafted message and waits for you to confirm before it posts — the same way it works across all other connectors.

### Disconnecting Microsoft Teams

1. Go to [**Connectors**](https://sia.senseloaf.ai/settings/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.
