Microsoft Teams Form activity


A Microsoft Teams Form activity step is a task or action that someone in your organization needs to complete within Microsoft Teams. The person must have access to the Channel where the GoAutomate App is installed. The task will show up in their Inbox.

You can customise what information is provided for the Activity and what needs to be submitted when the Activity is done. The Activity can be assigned to one or more People or Groups, and assignments can be fixed or change based on certain conditions.
