The Optimizely Content Marketing Platform (CMP) integration with Microsoft Teams provides real-time alerts, notifying marketers of CMP activity directly in the Microsoft Teams interface. By connecting CMP with Microsoft Teams, you can monitor an ongoing, automated feed of alerts (such as @ mentions, asset shares, and so on), and you can click through to CMP directly from the notification.
Configure notification settings
To receive notifications, enable App notifications in the Direct Share Notifications and Assignee Notifications view. Eligible notifications are highlighted by the External column. Go to your avatar > your username > and select the Notifications tab.
Each notification type triggers a message in Slack, each time the action becomes true.
