How to Set Out of Office in Teams, Schedule It, and Remove It Later

This template runs once a day. JavaScript compares today's date with the start and return you set, then calls Microsoft Graph to turn mailbox automatic replies on or off so Teams shows the right status. On the start day it also posts a short message in a Teams channel. Connect Microsoft Teams. Put the Graph token in that JavaScript node.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runtime in CPU seconds. The first 10,000 CPU seconds are free each month, then usage follows pay-as-you-go CPU-second pricing. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.

What this template does

How it works

1
Trigger

Run once a day

The scenario starts on the daily schedule you set.

2
Action

Set or clear automatic replies

JavaScript turns mailbox automatic replies on at the start date and off at the return date through Microsoft Graph. Put the Graph token in that JavaScript node.

3
Action

Post in Teams on the start day

On the day you leave, Microsoft Teams sends a channel message with your return date.

Setup guide

1

Create a Microsoft Graph token

In Azure, grant mailbox settings read and write access and issue a token for the mailbox that should show as out. Put that token in the JavaScript node or in Latenode secrets that node can read.

2

Connect Microsoft Teams

Add a Microsoft Teams connection with permission to post in the channel that should hear you are away.

3

Set start date, return date, and message

Add a daily schedule. In JavaScript, store the start date, return date, and automatic-reply text. On the start date, turn replies on and send the Teams channel message. On the return date, turn replies off. Other days, stop after the date check. Run on a test start date and confirm replies and the channel message.

Requirements

A Microsoft 365 mailbox Microsoft Graph can update automatic replies on
A Graph token with mailbox settings access, stored in the JavaScript node or secrets
A Microsoft Teams channel Latenode can post to
The start date and return date you want

Create a Pipeline deal when a new HubSpot deal is added

Manually copying deal data from HubSpot to Pipeline wastes time and risks errors. This automation triggers on the New Deal event in HubSpot and then runs the Create Deal action in Pipeline, mapping the deal name, amount, and associated contact email and name. Sales operations teams and CRM administrators who use both HubSpot and Pipeline can eliminate duplicate data entry. HubSpot captures the initial deal, and Pipeline receives a matching record immediately, so both systems stay aligned without manual work.
