Launched Microsoft Teams Integration

Integration of StatusGator with Microsoft Teams has been requested more and more over the last few weeks and months. It seems that since the COVID-19 lockdown, a lot of companies started using Teams or relying on it more. We decided to finally tackle this feature, so I took a stab at launching an MVP of the integration.

I was shocked at how easy it was to crank out this new feature, and a little embarrassed that I hadn't tried to before. In fact, it took twice as long to figure out how to create a Teams account for testing and to invite my team than it did to actually write the first version of the working feature. For now, the feature is very basic but already 6 people have started using it. We're going to continue to solicit feedback and watch the numbers closely from our Metabase dashboard. If more people start using Teams, we might put more effort into a deeper integration.

I posted more details on our blog.
