Use Files.com with Microsoft Teams
Get Real-Time Notifications in Microsoft Teams from Files.com Activity
Organizations and businesses need visibility into key activities to stay agile and responsive. Integrating key solutions and platforms with Microsoft Teams helps to automatically surface important updates across the organization.
What Are the Different Notifications in Teams?
Teams offer three main ways to receive notifications:
- The Activity Feed
- Chat
- Desktop (or Banner) notifications
Track Every File Action Across Your Organization, Right in Teams
You can configure Microsoft Teams to receive real-time alerts from Files.com for any file activity that matters to your organization. This includes file uploads or downloads by internal or external users, failed login attempts or access from unusual IP addresses, and the completion of automated workflows (such as files being pushed to cloud destinations). Teams can also be notified of file deletions, renames, or permission changes, as well as metadata updates, tagging events, and when automated scripts or integrations are triggered.
Enhance Microsoft Teams with Files.com for Security and Workflow Monitoring
Files.com adds deeper visibility and control to your Teams-based collaboration in several key ways with:
- Centralized Audit Logging: Files.com logs every action (upload, view, move, etc.) and sends structured events that can be visualized or queried in Teams via Power BI or chat notifications.
- Compliance and Alert Routing: For regulated industries, Files.com lets you create SIEM-friendly alerts based on DLP rules or audit thresholds, which you can route to Teams for instant escalation.
- Secure Inbound/Outbound File Sharing: Files.com acts as the secure file gateway for users who prefer Teams for messaging but still need structured, policy-driven file exchange. Teams can alert users when a shared folder is updated, for example.
- Tier-1 Support Escalations: Connect Files.com alerts with your Tier-1 support or SOC workflow in Teams so response teams don’t miss a critical file incident
How Data Teams Are Utilizing Files.com with Teams
- A media company uses Files.com to ingest large video files from freelancers. A webhook alerts the “Post Team” in Microsoft Teams when files arrive in the SFTP inbox.
- A healthcare org sets a Files.com DLP rule for PHI uploads from external partners. When triggered, a webhook alerts the security channel in Teams with full metadata.
- A finance firm has automated workflows for client statements. When the automation completes, a message posts in Teams with a link to the delivery folder for compliance check.
