How to setup Microsoft Teams and Perplexity AI in 5 easy steps

  • 1

    Add your app module to Make

    Log into your Make account and open your scenario. Search for either Microsoft Teams or Perplexity AI in the module list and add it to your workspace. When you see the connection option appear, click the 'Create a connection' button to start linking your app to Make.

  • 2

    Name your connection for quick identification

    When the connection window opens, you'll have the option to give your connection a custom name. While this step is optional, choosing a descriptive name helps you stay organized, especially if you plan to manage multiple connections. Pick a name that reminds you which account or project this connection is for.

  • 3

    Get your Perplexity AI API key

    For Perplexity AI connections, you'll need an API key from your account. Log into Perplexity AI, click the Settings icon, navigate to the API section, and create a new API key. Copy this key carefully as you'll need to paste it into Make. Think of this key as a secure password that lets Make access your Perplexity AI account.

  • 4

    Enter your credentials and save

    Paste your Perplexity AI API key into the designated field in Make, making sure there are no extra spaces. For Microsoft Teams, you'll be redirected to Microsoft's sign-in page where you'll enter your business account credentials. After entering your information, click 'Save' to establish the connection.

  • 5

    Start building your automation

    Once your connection is verified and saved, it's ready to use in your scenario. You can now add more modules from either app without needing to reconnect each time. Your apps are now linked and ready to work together, allowing you to create automations that connect Microsoft Teams and Perplexity AI.

  • Powerful AI-driven collaboration benefits

    Integrate Microsoft Teams and Perplexity AI to transform your workspace into an intelligent hub where team members access instant AI-powered research, automate knowledge sharing, and improve collaboration.

    Instant AI-powered answers in team channels

    Automatically deliver Perplexity AI research and answers directly into Microsoft Teams channels when team members ask questions or need information.

    Automated knowledge sharing workflows

    Improve information discovery by triggering Perplexity AI searches based on Teams events and automatically sharing insights with relevant team members.

    Better team collaboration with real-time research

    Intelligent meeting preparation

    Automatically generate pre-meeting briefings and research summaries using Perplexity AI and distribute them to Teams meeting participants.

    FAQ

    By integrating Microsoft Teams with Perplexity AI through Make, you can automate knowledge discovery and information sharing directly within your team collaboration space. For example, you can set up workflows where team members' questions in specific Teams channels automatically trigger Perplexity AI searches, with answers posted back to the conversation. This eliminates the need to switch between applications, saves time on research, and ensures your entire team has instant access to accurate, AI-powered information without leaving their communication hub.

    Make enables you to create powerful automated workflows such as: automatically generating research summaries from Perplexity AI when specific keywords are mentioned in Teams messages, scheduling daily AI-powered briefings on industry topics delivered to Teams channels, creating a bot that responds to team queries using Perplexity's knowledge base, or archiving important AI-generated insights from Perplexity directly into Teams file repositories. These no-code automations can be set up in minutes, allowing you to customize information flows that match your team's specific needs.

    No programming skills are required. Make provides an intuitive visual interface where you can connect Microsoft Teams and Perplexity AI using pre-built modules and drag-and-drop functionality. You simply authenticate both applications, select triggers (like a new message in Teams) and actions (like querying Perplexity AI), and configure the data flow between them. Make handles all the technical complexity behind the scenes, making it accessible for anyone to create sophisticated integrations regardless of their technical background.

    Yes, Make employs enterprise-grade security standards to protect your data. All connections use secure authentication protocols (OAuth 2.0), and data transferred between Microsoft Teams, Perplexity AI, and Make is encrypted. Make acts as a secure bridge that only processes the data you explicitly configure in your workflows, without storing sensitive information permanently. You maintain full control over what data is shared and can revoke access at any time. Additionally, Make is compliant with major security standards including GDPR, ensuring your team's communications and AI-generated insights remain confidential and protected.

    A scenario represents a workflow or a project of your own creation, and it is made up of a series of modules that automate apps and services. Creating a scenario allows you to transfer and transform data between apps and services via these modules to automate anything and improve the way you work.

    Modules are the main building blocks of automation in Make. Modules represent actions that Make performs with an app, like creating, updating, or deleting data.

    How it works

    Traditional no-code iPaaS platforms are linear and non-intuitive. Make allows you to visually create, build, and automate without limits.
