Microsoft Teams MCP Overview

The microsoft-teams-mcp MCP server connects AI clients to Microsoft Teams through the Teams chat-service API and a signed-in browser session. It lists chats and channels, reads messages and unread items, searches conversations, retrieves attachments, and exposes the Activity feed. Confirmed write operations can send messages, add or remove reactions, and mark conversations read. Reach for it when an agent needs access to Teams data without keeping each conversation open in the browser.

Primary Use Cases for Microsoft Teams MCP:
  • Read unread Teams messages across chats and channels
  • Search Teams conversations for specific text
  • Export chat or channel history to files
  • Send confirmed messages and reactions in Teams
