# How to post notifications to MS Teams

You may like to be notified in Microsoft Teams when a TicketLog workitem is created in Azure DevOps.

This can be done with the Azure Boards app for MS Teams. 

To setup the app, follow these steps:

1. From MS Teams, add the app called "Azure Boards" and select the channel where you would like notifications to be posted.<br>

   1. @Azure Boards signin
      * Signing in with an Azure devops user, who has Administrator privilege in Azure DevOps.
   2. @Azure Boards link <https://dev.azure.com/**myorg**/**myproject>\*\*

      * Change *myorg* and *myproject* in the url to the same organization and project used in your TicketLog service desk<br>

4. Click the 'Add subscription' button and select 'Work item created'. Also consider adding the Tag filter 'TicketLog' to ensure only TicketLog workitems generate a notification. Click Submit.<br>

   * *Note: If required, add or remove subscriptions with the command: @Azure Boards subscriptions*

5. A new post will be added to the channel indicating if this is successful or failed. If it failed, address the error and try again.<br>

6. Try creating a ticket from the TicketLog service desk and verify the notification appears. It may take 10-60 seconds to appear.<br>
