How to set up ArgoCD notification with Teams

Question

I am trying to use ArgoCD notification to my Teams channel, but it isn't sending notification. So, I followed documentation here

I created an Incoming Webhook in teams and get URL

I set it to argocd-notification secrets:

apiVersion: v1  
kind: Secret
metadata:   
  name: argocd-notifications-secret
stringData:
  channel-teams-url: mywebhookurl
type: Opaque

Then I set up config map:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: argocd-notifications-cm
data:
  context: |
    argocdUrl: https://20.204.207.96
  trigger.on-health-degraded: |
    when: app.status.health.status == 'Degraded'
    send: [app-on-health-degraded]
  trigger.on-deployed: |
    when: app.status.operationState.phase in ['Succeeded'] and app.status.health.status == 'Healthy'
    oncePer: app.status.sync.revision
    send: [app-sync-succeeded]
  service.teams: |
    recipientUrls: 
      ArgoCD: $channel-teams-url
  template.app-on-health-degraded: |
    email:
      subject: Application {{.app.metadata.name}} has degraded.
    message: |
      Application {{.app.metadata.name}} has degraded.
      Application details: {{.context.argocdUrl}}/applications/{{.app.metadata.name}}.
    teams:
      facts: |
        [{
          "name": "Sync Status",
          "value": "{{.app.status.sync.status}}"
        },
        {
          "name": "Repository",
          "value": "{{.app.spec.source.repoURL}}"
        }
        {{range $index, $c := .app.status.conditions}}
          {{if not $index}},{{end}}
          {{if $index}},{{end}}
          {
            "name": "{{$c.type}}",
            "value": "{{$c.message}}",
          }
        {{end}}
        ]
      potentialAction: |
        [{
          "@type":"OpenUri",
          "name":"Open Application",
          "targets":[{
            "os":"default",
            "uri":"{{.context.argocdUrl}}/applications/{{.app.metadata.name}}"
          }]
        },
        {
          "@type":"OpenUri",
          "name":"Open Repository",
          "targets":[{
            "os":"default",
            "uri":"{{.app.spec.source.repoURL | call .repo.RepoURLToHTTPS}}"
          }]
        }]
      title: Application {{.app.metadata.name}} has degraded.

  template.app-sync-succeeded: |
    teams:
      facts: |
        [{
          "name": "Sync Status",
          "value": "{{.app.status.sync.status}}"
        },
        {
          "name": "Repository",
          "value": "{{.app.spec.source.repoURL}}"
        },
        {
          "name": "Revision",
          "value": "{{.app.status.sync.revision}}"
        }
        {{range $index, $c := .app.status.conditions}}
          {{if not $index}},{{end}}
          {{if $index}},{{end}}
          {
            "name": "{{$c.type}}",
            "value": "{{$c.message}}",
          }
        {{end}}
        ]
      potentialAction: |-
        [{
          "@type":"OpenUri",
          "name":"Operation Application",
          "targets":[{
            "os":"default",
            "uri":"{{.context.argocdUrl}}/applications/{{.app.metadata.name}}"
          }]
        },
        {
          "@type":"OpenUri",
          "name":"Open Repository",
          "targets":[{
            "os":"default",
            "uri":"{{.app.spec.source.repoURL | call .repo.RepoURLToHTTPS}}"
          }]
        }]
      title: New version of an application {{.app.metadata.name}} is up and running.

Then I subscribe it from application:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
  name: dreambook-argo-application
  namespace: argocd
  annotations:
    notifications.argoproj.io/subscribe.on-sync-running.teams: ArgoCD
    notifications.argoproj.io/subscribe.on-deployed.teams: ArgoCD
    notifications.argoproj.io/subscribe.on-health-degraded: ArgoCD
spec:
  project: default
  source:
    repoURL: myrepo url
    targetRevision: HEAD
    path: dev/deployment
  destination:
    server: https://kubernetes.default.svc
    namespace: myns
  syncPolicy:
    automated:
      prune: true
      selfHeal: true
    syncOptions:
      - Validate=false
      - Prune=true
      - SelfHeal=true

So, my channel in Teams is ArgoCD:

So, after CI/CD I am not getting any notification. Does anyone have this problem?

I'm not sure if you applied your secret with a namespace flag or not, but make sure it's in the same namespace as the other resources.

If that is not the issue I'll just assume that the notification controller is not able to send the message due to missing text. The official notification template has this missing for the teams templates.

You can find that out by getting the logs of the argocd notification-controller. Notification controller should be an already running pod in your respective namespace (from what it seems to me, probably at argocd).

kubectl logs get pods argocd-notifications-controller-xxx -n argocd -f

Just keep watching the pod logs and sync the application in argocd, you should get some logs that indicate that a message was attempted to send. In case it somewhere says

Failed to notify recipient {teams myChannelName} defined in resource myApplication: teams webhook post error: Summary or Text is required.

Then the solution is to add another text field in the template. A working template of mine looks like this:

template.app-sync-succeeded: |
  teams:
    facts: |
      [{
        "name": "Sync Status",
        "value": "{{.app.status.sync.status}}"
      },
      {
        "name": "Synced at",
        "value": "{{.app.status.operationState.finishedAt}}"
      },
      {
        "name": "Repository",
        "value": "{{.app.spec.source.repoURL}}"
      }
      {{range $index, $c := .app.status.conditions}}
        {{if not $index}},{{end}}
        {{if $index}},{{end}}
        {
          "name": "{{$c.type}}",
          "value": "{{$c.message}}"
        }
      {{end}}
      ]
    potentialAction: |-
      [{
        "@type":"OpenUri",
        "name":"Operation Details",
        "targets":[{
          "os":"default",
          "uri":"{{.context.argocdUrl}}/applications/{{.app.metadata.name}}?operation=true"
        }]
      },
      {
        "@type":"OpenUri",
        "name":"Open Repository",
        "targets":[{
          "os":"default",
          "uri":"{{.app.spec.source.repoURL | call .repo.RepoURLToHTTPS}}"
        }]
      }]
    themeColor: '#000080'
    title: Application {{.app.metadata.name}} has been successfully synced
    text: Application {{.app.metadata.name}} has been successfully synced at {{.app.status.operationState.finishedAt}}.
