Technical implementation details for connecting Microsoft Teams with Tallyfy including Adaptive Cards, Graph API examples, Power Automate patterns, and Bot Framework configuration for workflow integration.
Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams is where your team communicates. But communication is not process.
When someone asks “can you approve this?” in a Teams message, there’s no assigned owner, no deadline, no escalation. If the message gets buried in a busy channel, the work doesn’t happen. Teams cannot track whether a request was completed or hold anyone accountable for it.
Teams Approvals (built on Power Automate) handles simple linear approvals, but cannot manage complex multi-step processes with conditional routing, parallel tasks, or cross-department coordination.
What Teams handles:
- Real-time messaging and channels
- Video meetings and calls
- File sharing via SharePoint
- Basic approvals via Power Automate
What falls through the cracks:
- Request tracking with clear ownership and deadlines
- Complex approval workflows spanning multiple departments
- SLA enforcement and automatic escalation
- Process visibility and completion metrics
- Conditional routing based on request type or data
- Audit trails for compliance requirements
Teams is where teams talk. Tallyfy is where work gets tracked and completed. The integration bridges conversation to action.
When a request is made in Teams, Tallyfy creates a structured workflow with assigned owners, deadlines, and escalation rules. Every step is tracked, and nothing gets lost in chat history.
Turn Teams messages into tracked work:
- Convert any message into a Tallyfy task with one click
- Launch structured workflows from slash commands
- Collect request details via forms before creating work
- Link Teams conversations to Tallyfy tasks for context
Complete workflows without leaving Teams:
- Receive task notifications in your activity feed
- Approve or reject requests directly from Teams
- Post workflow status updates to channels automatically
- Track progress across all your assigned work
Combine Teams collaboration with structured workflows:
- New channel creation triggers project setup workflows
- Guest access triggers compliance and security reviews
- Document uploads trigger review and approval processes
- Meeting action items become tracked Tallyfy tasks
Power Automate: The primary connection method. Use Power Automate to trigger Tallyfy workflows from Teams events and post updates back to channels.
Microsoft Graph API: Build custom Teams apps that integrate with Tallyfy using Adaptive Cards and Bot Framework.
Webhooks: Send Tallyfy workflow updates to Teams channels via incoming webhooks.

Power Automate > Integrating Power Automate approvals with Microsoft Teams
Integrating Power Automate approvals with Microsoft Teams centralizes Tallyfy approval notifications within Teams to reduce app switching and accelerate decision-making through interactive Adaptive Cards that enable instant approval responses.
Microsoft Power Automate serves as an integration bridge that connects Tallyfy’s human-centric workflow management with the broader Microsoft ecosystem and other business applications to automate data synchronization and system-to-system tasks without requiring extensive coding knowledge.
Connect your existing business systems with Tallyfy to orchestrate cross-department workflows that vendor platforms cannot coordinate on their own - bridging CRM, Helpdesk, HR, Finance, RPA, and Operations teams.
