Monday.com + Microsoft 365 Integration — Teams, Entra ID & Power Automate
Monday.com + Microsoft 365 Integration connects the two platforms your teams already live in — monday.com boards pinned as tabs and notifications delivered in Microsoft Teams, single sign-on and automated user provisioning through Microsoft Entra ID, Power Automate flows built with the monday connector for cross-system automation, and file scenarios spanning OneDrive and SharePoint. This is the umbrella engagement: we scope which scenarios deliver value, implement the agreed set using first-party building blocks wherever they exist, and add custom flows only where they don't. Billed by the hour at $175, with a standard engagement planned at one week; each scenario below can also be delivered as its own scoped mini-engagement.
What this engagement is
Monday.com shops on Microsoft 365 run the same split every day: work is planned and tracked in monday.com boards, but conversations happen in Teams, identity lives in Entra ID, files live in OneDrive and SharePoint, and automation muscle lives in Power Automate. Left unconnected, that split costs app-switching, duplicate updates, and offboarding gaps where a departed employee keeps a live monday.com seat. IT Partner connects the platforms using the same discipline as the rest of our integration family: first-party building blocks first, custom work only where they stop. The first-party monday.com app for Microsoft Teams pins boards as tabs in channels and delivers board notifications into Teams — deployed under your tenant's app policies, that covers the collaboration core with no custom code. The monday.com enterprise app in the Microsoft Entra gallery provides SAML single sign-on, and — on plans that support it — SCIM provisioning, so joiners get seats, leavers lose them, and monday.com access follows your conditional access policies. The certified monday connector for Power Automate covers automation: flows triggered when items are created or column values change, and actions that create items, subitems, updates, and notifications — approvals routed through Teams that update boards, items spawned from Microsoft 365 signals, status changes posted to the right channel. File scenarios combine monday.com's file attachments with flows that keep governed copies in SharePoint where compliance needs them. We scope which of these earns a place in your rollout, implement the agreed set, validate permissions behavior across both platforms, and hand over documented configuration your admins own.
Success criteria
What you receive
How the work unfolds
Confirm which scenarios the first-party building blocks cover and which need Power Automate work. Verify monday.com plan features (SSO and SCIM are plan-dependent), Microsoft licensing, and pick pilot teams, boards, and channels.
Validate monday.com admin access, Microsoft 365 and Entra ID admin availability, Teams app permission policies, and Power Automate premium connector licensing where flows are scoped — the monday connector requires premium licensing.
Configure SAML SSO (and SCIM provisioning where scoped) through the Entra gallery app with test users, then deploy the monday.com app for Teams within tenant policy, pin the agreed board tabs, and validate notifications with pilot users.
Build the scoped flows with the monday connector — triggers on item creation and column changes, actions creating items and updates — plus the agreed OneDrive/SharePoint file handling, with error handling and agreed connection ownership.
Run UAT with representative boards, channels, and users; tune notification noise; verify joiner/leaver behavior end to end where provisioning is in scope; then roll out to the agreed audience and deliver handover documentation.
Prerequisites
Who does what
IT Partner
- Lead discovery and confirm which scenarios first-party building blocks cover versus custom Power Automate flows.
- Verify per-scenario plan and licensing prerequisites and put them in the scoping summary before build.
- Configure the Entra gallery app for SSO and provisioning, deploy the Teams app, and build the scoped flows with least-privilege connection ownership.
- Validate permission behavior across monday.com and Microsoft 365 for representative users.
- Support UAT, tune notification behavior, and remediate in-scope defects during the agreed project window.
- Provide handover documentation and administrator notes for the implemented configuration.
Your team
- Assign business owners for the affected teams plus Microsoft 365/Entra ID, Teams, and monday.com administration contacts.
- Provide required administrative access or working sessions for app deployment, SSO configuration, and connector consent.
- Confirm and provide required licensing and plan tiers on both sides — monday.com plan features and Power Automate premium connector licensing where flows are scoped.
- Define the target boards, channels, notification rules, and approval routing to be implemented.
- Provide test users and complete UAT with timely feedback.
- Communicate the rollout to affected users, and own board hygiene, Teams governance, and user membership after handover.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Monday.com + Microsoft 365 Integration service?
An umbrella integration engagement connecting monday.com with the Microsoft 365 stack: the first-party monday.com app for Teams (board tabs and notifications), Entra ID single sign-on and SCIM user provisioning, Power Automate flows built with the monday connector, and OneDrive/SharePoint file patterns. We scope which scenarios earn a place, build the agreed set, and hand over documented configuration. Billed hourly at $175, with each scenario also available as its own smaller engagement.
Is there a native monday.com app for Microsoft Teams?
Yes. monday.com publishes a first-party app for Microsoft Teams that lets users pin boards as tabs in channels and receive board notifications inside Teams. IT Partner deploys it under your tenant's app policies and validates it with pilot users — custom Power Automate work enters only for scenarios the app does not cover, such as posting specific column changes to specific channels.
Can our users sign in to monday.com with their Microsoft 365 accounts?
Yes, where your monday.com plan supports it. The monday.com enterprise app in the Microsoft Entra gallery provides SAML single sign-on, so users authenticate with the account they already use for email and Teams, and your conditional access policies apply. Note that SSO is a higher-tier monday.com plan feature — we confirm your plan's coverage during scoping rather than discover it mid-build.
Can monday.com accounts be created and removed automatically when people join and leave?
Yes — that is SCIM provisioning from Microsoft Entra ID, and it is one of the highest-value scenarios here: a leaver disabled in Entra ID loses their monday.com seat without anyone remembering to do it. monday.com supports SCIM on its Enterprise plan; we configure the mappings, test joiner and leaver flows end to end, and document the behavior.
What can Power Automate actually do with monday.com?
The monday connector for Power Automate supports triggers — an item is created, a column value changes, an update is posted — and actions that create items, subitems, boards, updates, and notifications. In practice that means approvals routed through Teams that update a board, items created from Microsoft 365 signals like form submissions or emails, and status changes posted to the right channel. The connector requires Power Automate premium licensing, which we verify during scoping.
Can monday.com work with our files in OneDrive and SharePoint?
Yes, with an honest split. monday.com natively supports attaching files from OneDrive, which covers everyday use. Where governance matters — contracts, deliverables, records that must live under SharePoint permissions and retention — we build flows that keep the governed copy in SharePoint and link it from the board, so monday.com stays the tracker and SharePoint stays the system of record.
Can we report on monday.com data in Power BI?
Yes, with the approach depending on your monday.com plan: monday.com exposes its data through an API, and offers its own analytics and BI-oriented capabilities on higher tiers. During scoping we state honestly which route fits your plan and reporting need — and if the answer is that monday.com's built-in dashboards already cover it, we say that instead of building something redundant.
Do Teams messages sync with monday.com item updates?
No. Neither platform offers native two-way conversation synchronization, and this service does not promise one. The integration links items to where work is discussed and delivers notifications; discussion history stays in its own system. If a limited update-logging flow is genuinely needed, it is designed and quoted separately as custom automation.
What licensing and plan levels do we need?
On the Microsoft side: a Microsoft 365 tenant with Teams, and Power Automate premium connector licensing where custom flows are scoped. On the monday.com side: features vary sharply by plan — SSO and SCIM provisioning are limited to higher tiers, and API capacity varies too. The scoping session produces a written per-scenario prerequisites list before you commit to build, and we sell neither platform's licenses — monday.com plans come from monday.com, Microsoft licensing at Microsoft's published prices.
How is the service priced, and how long does it take?
Billed hourly at $175, with total effort scoped per project. A standard umbrella engagement covering several scenarios is planned at about one week; a single-scenario engagement — just SSO, or just the Teams app — is smaller. You approve the scope in writing, and out-of-scope work is never started without your written approval.
We use Asana / Salesforce / HubSpot too. Is that covered here?
Not on this page — deliberately. Each platform's integration scope lives on its own service page (our Asana, Salesforce, HubSpot, Mailchimp, and Zoho CRM families work the same way), so every quote maps to one platform's scope. If you are consolidating tools or integrating several, we scope them as parallel engagements with shared discovery.
What happens after the integration is completed?
Pilot users work monday.com boards from Teams tabs, notifications land where the team actually looks, accounts follow your joiner/leaver process, and the agreed flows run under documented ownership. You receive administrator handover notes and a pilot quick start; IT Partner remediates implementation defects during the agreed validation period, and ongoing support is available as an optional paid add-on through IT Partner's NOC, third-party support partnerships, and a Microsoft Premier Support agreement.
