Elementary’s Microsoft Teams integration enables sending alerts when data issues happen. The alerts are sent using Adaptive Cards format, which provides rich formatting and interactive capabilities.

The alerts include rich context, and you can create alert rules to distribute alerts to different channels and destinations.
