Setup

Ensure Teams channel membership

If you're sending a message to a channel via your own Teams user, be sure to join the channel before sending.

Select the ‘+’ icon at the top of the page and search for Pyn. Click Add to add Pyn to the channel.

Craft your communication

After you've granted the additional permissions, you can search and select Teams channels as recipients.

⚠️ It can take up to an hour for your company's Teams channels to appear in Pyn.

  1. Select the Pyn Bot or your Teams user.

  2. Click on the Recipient field to open the dropdown. You can now search for Teams channels.

⚠️ You can't search for a Teams channel if you've selected an email sender.

Deliver to Teams channels

After you've sent the message it'll be delivered to the selected Teams channel.
