Do we need Zapier or Power Automate premium?

No. FishOut posts to a Teams Workflows webhook built from Microsoft’s template, which needs no premium licence.

Can it post to a private channel?

Not yet — Microsoft’s Teams webhook trigger does not support private channels. Use a standard channel.

How often is Reddit checked?

Reddit mentions in Microsoft Teams

Teams is where IT, ops and customer-success teams live, and Reddit is where their counterparts compare tools. FishOut posts the Reddit threads that matter to a Teams channel as a card with the facts lined up, and leaves the rest in the inbox.

[02] WHAT GETS FILTERED/ NOISE

What never reaches Microsoft Teams

2 Reddit matches that go to Filtered instead, each with its reason.

[03] KEYWORDS THAT WORK HERE/ REDDIT

For Reddit, into Microsoft Teams

More keyword shapes are on monitoring Reddit.

Your category + team size: “shared inbox 12 people”

IT and ops buyers describe their team; those posts are the ones a Teams-based sales or CS team can act on.

Integration terms: your name + “Outlook”, “SSO”

Enterprise questions show up as integration questions.

A floor of 75

Colleagues share the channel. 75 keeps it to threads someone would raise in a stand-up.

The no-link hint, in a FactSet

Some subreddits punish links. When triage says “Don’t include a link”, it is a titled row on the card, so whoever answers sees it before they write.

[05] A BUSY DAY/ DIGEST

When Reddit gets loud

Microsoft throttles a Teams webhook above four requests a second. A busy Reddit afternoon arrives as one digest card instead.
