Summarize Microsoft 365 outage alerts with ChatGPT and send to Slack

Built this for a dedicated Slack outage-notifications channel — works well on both desktop and mobile. This is for: IT Administrators & small MSPs looking to streamline M365 alerts from one or multiple mailboxes into a single or specific Slack channels IT Admins who prefer ChatOps over management-by-email What does it do Scans for M365 outage alerts emails (every 1 min) Checks if it impacts a specific user region (if the alert calls it out, countries have to be manually set) Summarizes the incident using OpenAI o4-mini (cheap model - or you can swap for local Ollama) Sends a Slack Block to your outage channel with incident link (can be extended) Deletes the original alert email after successful delivery Credentials Outlook: Create an Outlook credential (OAuth2.0) to point to the mailbox (regular or shared) where M365 service alerts will be received Slack: Create a Slack bot credential with access to the slack channel you want updates posted to OpenAI: Create a OpenAI credential that has access to the GPT-4O-MINI model. Recommend you use projects in OpenAI so that you may set a per-project-budget and not impact other projects. Review this OpenAI documentation for more info on managing Projects in the API portal. Expect this to consume no more than 1-2 cents per month on average. Setup 1. Download & import the workflow 2.
