When we released the Flow app for Microsoft Teams you could use the Flow bot to make a Flow button run. Now, you can have automated flows that run in response to events in Teams channels automatically with two new triggers:

  • When there's a new message in a channel - This operation triggers when a new message is posted to a channel in a Team.
  • When you are @mentioned in a channel - This operation triggers when a new message is added to a channel in a Team, that mentions the current user.

This is another example of how we listen to your ideas on the Flow Ideas forum. Earlier this month we addressed the #1 idea - customizing who an approval comes "from" - and this feature is the #2 idea.
