Step-by-step guide
How to connect Microsoft Teams to Notion
Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.
What you'll need
- An active Microsoft Teams account with permission to install apps
- An active Notion account
- A free DeskFerry account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
- Step 01
Create your DeskFerry account
Sign up at deskferry.app — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.
- Step 02
Authenticate Microsoft Teams
Click "Add Connection" and select Microsoft Teams from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Microsoft Teams's authorization page. Grant DeskFerry permission to read and post messages in your selected channels. You control which channels the integration can access.
- Step 03
Authenticate Notion
Same process for Notion. Click "Add Connection," select Notion, and authorize access. Grant DeskFerry access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.
- Step 04
Choose your trigger
Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new message received in microsoft teams or new item created in notion. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.
- Step 05
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create item in notion. Map the data fields between Microsoft Teams and Notion so the right information lands in the right place.
- Step 06
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Microsoft Teams and Notion. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — DeskFerry handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

Is my Microsoft Teams data secure when connected to Notion?
Yes. DeskFerry uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Microsoft Teams or Notion passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your communication data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your DeskFerry dashboard.
Can I sync data both ways between Microsoft Teams and Notion?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Microsoft Teams or Notion. For example, create a workflow where Microsoft Teams events update Notion, and a separate one where Notion changes sync back to Microsoft Teams. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect Microsoft Teams and Notion?
No coding is required. DeskFerry's builder is prompt-based: you describe the trigger and what should happen in plain English, and the agent handles the field mapping. If you can use Microsoft Teams and Notion, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
