Webhook URL Error for Send Microsoft Teams Message action webhookb2

JG Meillaud _

Hello,

I cannot enable the Send MS Teams Message action because Automation tells me the webhook URL is not OK.

The webhook URL looks like this https://COMPANY.webhook.office.com/webhookb2/XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX/IncomingWebhook/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX

Automation gives me a warning sign /!\ and "Please enter a valid webhook URL like https://outlook.office.com/webhook/XXXXYYYY..."

Thanks a lot!

After upgrading to Automation for Jira 7.2.6, you need to following the documentation at https://confluence.atlassian.com/automation/setting-configuration-properties-1026539532.html to set the ms.teams.notification.action.url.prefix property to the correct prefix.

If you don't set the prefix, it will default to https://outlook.office.com/webhook/

If you need both the old and new prefix, set the prefix to https:// so that it matches any secure URL.

We have same problem!

Gareth Cantrell_7nagel

Microsoft is apparently changing the format of all newly created Webhook URLs after 11/Jan, and the older "outlook.office.com/webhook" will be deprecated in 3 months

If you have access to the Microsoft365 Message Center, you can view the announcement here: https://admin.microsoft.com/AdminPortal/home?ref=MessageCenter&id=MC234048

I'd suggest raising a support request with Atlassian to address this.

Hi both,

Thanks for replying.

So this is a known bug:
[AUT-2103] Microsoft Teams webhooks are limited to specific URL

What's really frustrating is that it looks like this "URL verification" thing is a feature...
If so, please Atlassian and partners, keep it simple, please 🙏.

Cheers,
JG

Hello All,

Since Microsoft url has changed over time, we have removed the validation from Automation side in cloud. The new URL should be working now. Please let me know in case of issues. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Cheers

hello @Sherry Goyal

We are seeing this issue on Jira datacenter + automation 7.1.17

Do you know by any chance in which version of Automation this has been corrected?

thanks

Sherry Goyal

Hello @robert Mugabuhamye

We fixed it in cloud. Sorry I am not aware of the server.

Gareth Cantrell_7nagel

@robert Mugabuhamye I see there was a new version for server that was released on 28/Jan that appears to address the MS Teams issues (version 7.2.6)

robert Mugabuhamye

Thank you @Gareth Cantrell , I'm going to try that version

Leonie C. Breitmoser

Hi there,

we run into the same issue. Even with the bugfix update it won't work with the web-hook in our Jira. (Server 8.13.1 & Automation 7.2.6).

I tried to find out if I need to change something in the setup, but didn't succeed. I still get the "lease enter a valid webhook URL like https://outlook.office.com/webhook/XXXXYYYY..." Error Message.

Did anyone find a solution for this?

Thanks,

Leonie

robert Mugabuhamye

Hello @Leonie C_ Breitmoser

II'm still experiencing the issue on the 7.2.6 version too 😔.

No solutions so far

Gareth Cantrell_7nagel

If you don't set the prefix, it will default to https://outlook.office.com/webhook/

If you need both the old and new prefix, set the prefix to https:// so that it matches any secure URL.

Worked perfectly for me after updating Automation for Jira to 7.2.6! Thanks for pointing out the instructions Gareth, much appreciated!

Gareth Cantrell_7nagel

@robert Mugabuhamye 7.2.6 does indeed contain a solution for this issue, however it requires you make some configuration changes post installation.

It is not immediately obvious, until you read the release notes in conjunction with the documentation on setting configuration properties (see my answer above).

Leonie C. Breitmoser

Worked for us as well. Thanks for pointing us in the right direction Gareth.

Erik Ekengren

Hi all!

I tried the work-around in this article Setting configuration properties | Automation for Jira Data Center and Server 7.2 | Atlassian Documentation but had no luck. It turned out that since I run Jira on WINDOWS-machine then I was not able to use the CURL-command. After some talks with the Atlassian support they helped me with this Power-shell query and then I got it working:

$user = 'YOUR_USER_ADMIN'
$pass = 'PASSWORD'
$pair = "$($user):$($pass)"
$encodedCreds = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes($pair))
$basicAuthValue = "Basic $encodedCreds"
$Headers = @{
Authorization = $basicAuthValue
}
$Uri = 'https://<jira-base-url>/rest/cb-automation/1/configuration/property/bulk'
$Form = @{
"ms.teams.notification.action.url.prefix"="https://"
}
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $Uri -Method Put -Body ($Form|ConvertTo-Json) -ContentType "application/json" -Headers $Headers

Change User and Password in the script and also to your Base-url and this will work. This will allow all webhooks that starts with https://.

Hi Erik,

May I ask how to run the script? Thank you.

BR,
Fox

Erik Ekengren

Hi Fox!

Log in to your Windows Server and open Powershell. Then copy this (replace user and password and also <jira-base-url> to the base URL you have) to Powershell and run it:

$user = 'YOUR_USER_ADMIN'
$pass = 'PASSWORD'
$pair = "$($user):$($pass)"
$encodedCreds = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes($pair))
$basicAuthValue = "Basic $encodedCreds"
$Headers = @{
Authorization = $basicAuthValue
}
$Uri = 'https://<jira-base-url>/rest/cb-automation/1/configuration/property/bulk'
$Form = @{
"ms.teams.notification.action.url.prefix"="https://"
}
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $Uri -Method Put -Body ($Form|ConvertTo-Json) -ContentType "application/json" -Headers $Headers

BR/

Erik

Fox Chen

it works, thank you so much.

I am facing the same issue on Jira Data Center + A4J v7.2.8. Can you please suggest a solution for it ?

@Gareth Cantrell @Sherry Goyal

Gareth Cantrell_7nagel

@Aditya Verma the instructions I referred to above are for Jira Data Center/Server. If you're running Windows servers, use the script posted by @Erik Ekengren above.

robert Mugabuhamye

@Gareth Cantrell forgot to thank you. It worked for us 🙏🏿

Aditya Verma_ozkez7
