## Overview

Teams that plan and approve email in Microsoft Teams need to know when a new version of an email has been checked, and whether any email client broke. Without a notification, someone has to keep the testing dashboard open and share results by hand.

MailSlurp renders your email on real email clients and devices and captures a screenshot of each. The MailSlurp Teams app posts the result to a Teams chat or channel, with a link to the full results.

## What the Teams app posts

Each render message includes:

- the email subject and whether the render started, finished, partly finished or failed
- how many email clients are ready or failed, and how many screenshots were captured
- optionally, the main screenshot
- a button that opens the full results

## Connect a chat or channel

1. Open **Device previews** > **Notifications** > **Teams** in MailSlurp and choose **Connect Teams**.
2. Sign in with a Microsoft work or school account if Teams asks.
3. In Teams, press **Send** on the prefilled MailSlurp connect message.
4. Return to MailSlurp and wait for it to confirm the Teams destination.

If your organization restricts Teams apps, a Teams administrator may need to allow MailSlurp before you can connect.

## Choose what gets posted

Open **Device previews** > **Notifications** and create a rule for the Teams destination. Choose the events to send, such as **Completed** and **Failed**, and open **Options** to include the main screenshot. Use **Test** to send a sample message.

To share results with people outside your workspace, the message button opens a share link that works without a MailSlurp login. Reviewers can approve a render or request changes on the render page in MailSlurp, and you can send those decisions to Teams with a rule for the **Approved** and **Changes requested** events.

## Troubleshooting

If a message does not arrive:

- check that the rule is enabled and the destination is active
- make sure the connect message was sent in the chat or channel you want to use
- ask a Teams administrator whether MailSlurp is allowed in your organization
- send a **Test** message from the rule
