Summarize
Summary of Microsoft Teams Spoke
The Microsoft Teams spoke enables ServiceNow customers to post messages and details of incident, problem, and change records directly to Microsoft Teams channels. This integration is available through Integration Hub and requires an Integration Hub subscription. Starting with the Yokohama release, the Microsoft Teams spoke is being prepared for future deprecation—it will no longer be activated on new instances but will continue to be supported. Customers are encouraged to consider the Microsoft Teams Graph Spoke for the latest capabilities.
