pymsteams

What it is and what it does

pymsteams is a Python wrapper around Microsoft Teams' webhook connector API that lets you send formatted messages to Teams channels programmatically. It abstracts the JSON structure of Teams' Connector Card format, letting you build messages with text, titles, sections, images, facts, buttons, and interactive actions through simple method calls rather than hand-crafted JSON.

The library supports both synchronous and asynchronous sending (via asyncio). You construct a connectorcard object with your webhook URL, add content and formatting through chainable methods, and call send() to post it. The package handles HTTP communication via requests and exposes the underlying response for debugging. It's commonly used for alerts, notifications, and automated reporting into Teams channels.

Use it for:

• Send deployment notifications or build alerts from CI/CD pipelines to a Teams channel.
• Post monitoring or error alerts from applications directly to a Teams channel for visibility.
• Generate formatted daily reports or summaries and deliver them to Teams automatically.
• Create interactive cards with buttons and input fields for team workflows or approvals.
• Notify teams of scheduled events, reminders, or status updates from backend systems.

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Sends formatted messages to Microsoft Teams channels via webhook connectors, supporting plain text, rich cards with sections, buttons, and interactive actions.

Yes. The package is stable (Production/Stable status), has low install friction, no known vulnerabilities, and solves a common need cleanly. The single dependency (requests) is widely trusted. The only caveat is that the project is actively seeking new maintainers, so verify that the maintenance status meets your long-term support expectations before relying on it for critical workflows.

Quickstart

pip install pymsteams

import pymsteams

myTeamsMessage = pymsteams.connectorcard("https://your-webhook-url")
myTeamsMessage.text("this is my text")
myTeamsMessage.send()

Requires a valid Microsoft Teams webhook URL obtained from your Teams channel connector settings.

Verify before relying

• Whether async support (python 3.6+) is still available or if it requires a separate install extra.
• Current status of the maintainer search and whether active development continues beyond bug fixes.
