Traditionally, you'd have to visit separate applications to perform different tasks, like Skype for Business for meetings, GitHub for software development, and so on. But that's no longer the case. With Office 365 connectors, you can view and interact with content from other applications right in Microsoft Teams through RSS feeds, news headlines, project analytics, and much more—without ever having to leave Microsoft Teams. Let's take a look at Office 365 Connectors for Microsoft Teams and how to get started with them.

Office 365 Connectors: The Basics
Office 365 connectors are a convenient way to push information from third-party services directly to your Microsoft Teams channels. You can view information posted by connectors to your Office 365 groups or Microsoft Teams through multiple clients—Microsoft Teams, Office 365 Yammer, Outlook 2016, OWA, and Office 365 Groups mobile apps.
Currently, Office 365 ships with about 94 connectors out of box for various popular services like Zendesk, Groove, Dynamics 365, JIRA, Twitter, and so on. New Connectors are always being developed and added to the Microsoft Store—and you can even create your own! You just need to register your Connector in the Office 365 developer portal, add a Connect to Office 365 button in your application, and publish it to the Microsoft Store.

To access an existing Office 365 connector, all you need to do is to log in to Microsoft Teams and click the More options (⋯) button next to the channel name, then choose Connectors.
From the list, click on Add next to the connector you want to use in your Microsoft Teams channel.
Once that's done, you'll simply need to authorize the app to send data to your selected Microsoft Teams channel. For example, let's say you want to add a connector for JIRA to Microsoft Teams. First, make sure that you have a JIRA account, and then click on Add. A configuration wizard will pop up to help you connect Teams to your JIRA service.
Posting messages with Connectors
You can post messages through connectors by either setting up a custom incoming webhook or registering your own connector in the Office 365 developer portal. Posting a message via any of the two methods involves attaching a JSON payload to an HTTP webhook. The webhook allows an app to reach out to another app via HTTP POST. JSON can also be used to create cards that contain different types of inputs, such as text boxes, dates and times, or other options.
Actionable messages
You can even add different actions to your contents so users can complete tasks directly in their Microsoft Teams channel. Connectors deliver information from different services via cards that include action buttons, such as Comment, Like, and so on. These actionable messages allow users to complete tasks directly in their channel without having to switch to another app. Below is an example of a card with action buttons:
