How it posts in Teams

Post the way your company celebrates.

Choose who posts, how often and where. Set it once per group.

Post as Peoplewisher, or as a colleague.

Let the Peoplewisher app post automatically, or choose a team member as the sender. When wishes come from someone people know, like your HR lead, they feel personal, not automated.

  • As Peoplewisher: hands-off, posts on time every time
  • As a colleague: perfect for HR and people teams

FAQ

Peoplewisher for Microsoft Teams: common questions.

Still have a question? Talk to us.

How do I automate birthday messages in Microsoft Teams?

Connect Microsoft Teams in Peoplewisher, add the Peoplewisher app to your team and choose a channel for each celebration group. Peoplewisher then writes a personal message and card for every birthday and work anniversary and posts it on the day.

Can I choose who the Teams post comes from?

Yes. Posts can come from the Peoplewisher app or a sender you choose, so a celebration can read as coming from the team lead or HR.

What happens when two people celebrate on the same day?

Peoplewisher combines celebrants into one post, so the channel gets a single celebration instead of a stream of separate messages.

Can Teams posts be reviewed before they go out?

Yes. Turn on approval and every message and card waits for sign-off in the schedule view. You can edit any message or pause a group at any time.

Can I also send a private greeting alongside the Teams post?

Yes. A group can post to Teams and also send each person a personal email, SMS or WhatsApp message on the same day.

Is Microsoft Teams included in the free plan?

Microsoft Teams celebrations are part of Peoplewisher’s paid plans, and paid plans include every feature. A free plan is available to try email greetings first. See pricing.
