Microsoft Teams Bot Commands

The FireHydrant Microsoft Teams bot allows you to run a limited number of commands from Teams. This page assumes you've already installed MS Teams.

All commands must first mention the FireHydrant bot, @FireHydrant.

General Commands

Authorize

@FireHydrant authorize

Authorize FireHydrant in your MS Teams account so that you can start creating and managing incidents. This requires setting up a bot token.

Deauthorize

@FireHydrant deauthorize

Disconnect FireHydrant from your MS Teams account by removing the bot token.

Note: To fully remove the MS Teams Bot from your workspace, you will need to uninstall the plugin.

Set Workspace

@FireHydrant set workspace

Sets which workspace FireHydrant posts to. Copy the link to the team whose workspace you want to post to and paste it in to this command.

MS Teams copy workspace link

MS Teams set workspace

Note: Currently, FireHydrant can only support posting and creating channels in a single Team/Workspace at a time.

New Incident

@FireHydrant new

Declare a new FireHydrant incident from your Teams channel.

Note: At this time, we only support declaring an incident with a name from MS Teams. Other details will need to be edited in-app by clicking on "View Incident Details", which will take you to the Command Center.

Incident Commands

Add Note to Incident

@FireHydrant add note

Adds a note/update to the incident. This will be tracked in the timeline.

Resolve Incident

@FireHydrant resolve

Close a FireHydrant incident from your incident channel.
