How to connect OpenAI Vision and Microsoft Teams
Create a New Scenario to Connect OpenAI Vision and Microsoft Teams
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a OpenAI Vision, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, OpenAI Vision or Microsoft Teams will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find OpenAI Vision or Microsoft Teams, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the OpenAI Vision Node
Select the OpenAI Vision node from the app selection panel on the right.

Set Up the OpenAI Vision and Microsoft Teams Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring OpenAI Vision, Microsoft Teams, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the OpenAI Vision and Microsoft Teams integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OpenAI Vision and Microsoft Teams (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect OpenAI Vision and Microsoft Teams
Microsoft Teams + OpenAI Vision + Jira: When a new channel message is posted in Microsoft Teams, the image from the message will be sent to OpenAI Vision for analysis. The analysis results, along with the image, will be used to create a new Jira issue.
Microsoft Teams + OpenAI Vision + Google Docs: When a new message is posted in a Microsoft Teams channel, extract the image from the message. Send the image to OpenAI Vision for text extraction. Append the extracted text to a specified Google Docs document.
