Teams Workflows – channel-wide mention / notification option

Dear @Rodrigo,

From your message, I understand that you are using Teams Workflows to schedule recurring posts in a channel, and you would like these messages to notify all members (similar to @team or @channel).

You've correctly identified a current limitation that Teams Workflows (powered by Power Automate) does not natively support @channel or @team mentions in automated messages. Only individual user mentions are currently supported.

While direct @team/@channel mentions are not supported in Workflows, here are some alternative options:

1/ Use Teams Tags:

Create a tag add users to it, and mention this tag in your message. This is the closest available option to notify a group of users.

2/ Post as a user + manual mention

In some cases, posting messages as a user instead of a bot may allow adding mentions manually, depending on your setup.

3/ Combine Workflow with manual follow-up

Use Workflows for scheduling, and complement with a quick manual @team mention if needed.

4/ Use the Microsoft Graph HTTP request action in Power Automate to post a message with a channel-wide mention.

This requires a slightly more advanced setup but is fully supported. You can find detail from this article: Automating @Team Mentions in Microsoft Teams with Power Automate
