Kerux
Via API steps and webhooks No app to install: Kerux talks to Microsoft Teams's API with HTTP steps and webhooks, set up once.
Teams alerts from your LinkedIn campaigns
When a lead replies, books a call or needs you, Kerux posts in the Teams channel you pick, through a Teams Workflows webhook.
How it works
A lead replies
Maria asks for pricing on LinkedIn.
Kerux posts in Teams
Who it is and what they said.
Your team picks it up
In the channel they already work in.
An example workflow
- The campaign waits for a reply after each LinkedIn message.
- Reply received: the When the lead replies box sends the lead to a one-step campaign whose Webhook / HTTP step posts to the Teams workflow URL.
- The card shows
{{lead.first_name}},{{lead.company}}and the reply, with a link to the lead. - Meeting booked: a campaign started by the Meeting booked Kerux event posts in the same channel.
- A lead in Need attention: an Event Rule posts there too.
What data flows
Kerux sends to Microsoft Teams
lead.first_namelead.companylead.linkedin_url
Your message card, with the lead's details in it.
Set it up
- In Teams, open Workflows, pick the template Post to a channel when a webhook request is received, choose the team and channel, and copy the URL it gives you.
- In Kerux, open Integrations > Connections and click Connect on Custom API (under Developers). Pick how Microsoft Teams signs in, paste the key and Microsoft Teams's Base URL, click Save, then Test connection.
- In Kerux, add a Webhook / HTTP step where the alert should happen: method POST, that URL, no sign-in (the URL holds its own key).
- Paste the Adaptive Card body the template expects and put Kerux variables in its text, such as
{{lead.first_name}} from {{lead.company}} replied. - Click Test in the Builder to run Test on one lead and check the message in the channel.
- In the campaign's Builder, click Test to open Test on one lead: the lead's journey shows what Kerux sent to Microsoft Teams and what came back.
Questions
Does Kerux have a native Microsoft Teams integration?
Not a one-click app. Kerux works with Microsoft Teams today through Microsoft Teams's own API: you save your Microsoft Teams key once in Kerux, then HTTP steps and webhooks do the work inside your campaigns. Nothing to install and no Zapier needed.
Is there a Kerux app for Teams like the Slack one?
Not yet. Slack has a one-button connection in Kerux; Teams works through its Workflows webhook, which takes a few minutes to set up.
Do old Teams incoming webhooks still work?
Microsoft is retiring the Office 365 connectors; its docs point to the Workflows app for incoming webhooks, which is what this page uses.
What happens if Microsoft Teams is down or refuses a call?
The lead stops with Microsoft Teams's own error message and shows in Need attention with a Retry button. It never shows as finished because a call failed, and nothing else goes out to that lead until you decide.
