Jenkins plugins post build failures, unstable builds, pipeline approvals, and deployment events to Slack and Teams.
SyncRivo bridges the human discussion between chat platforms — it does not relay Jenkins notifications.
Jenkins posts these through its own plugins. SyncRivo does not relay bot or app messages; it bridges the human discussion between developers on Slack and leadership on Teams.
Jenkins build failures that the responsible dev team investigates and engineering leadership needs to hear about.
Successful build completions and production deployments that release channels announce.
Unstable build notifications (test failures, coverage drops) that the dev team investigates before they become blocking failures.
Pipeline input steps waiting for approval, so manual approval gates don't sit unnoticed in the Jenkins UI.
Deployment stage completions that release managers and engineers both want confirmed.
Jenkins security scan failures (OWASP, SonarQube, Snyk plugin) that security and engineering teams triage together.
Jenkins plugins post the notifications; SyncRivo bridges the conversation. Your first channel bridge is typically live during onboarding, once your Slack/Teams admins approve the app.
Configure the Jenkins Slack Notification Plugin
In Jenkins → Manage Jenkins → Configure System → Slack, connect your Slack workspace.
Configure the Jenkins Microsoft Teams Notification Plugin
Install the Microsoft Teams Notification Plugin and point it at your Teams channel webhook.
Add notification steps to your Jenkinsfile
Add post conditions with slackSend() and the Teams step so each platform receives build events from Jenkins directly.
Connect Slack and Teams to SyncRivo
Book a demo to start a guided pilot. Your Slack and Microsoft Teams admins approve the SyncRivo apps. SyncRivo does not relay messages posted by bots and apps such as Jenkins.
Bridge the channels where builds are discussed
Bridge the dev Slack channel with the engineering leadership Teams channel, then post a human reply and confirm it appears on the other platform.
Jenkins plugins post build notifications, one platform at a time. SyncRivo does not relay those notifications; it bridges the human conversation between platforms.
| Capability | Jenkins Native Plugins | With SyncRivo |
|---|---|---|
| Teams integration | Community plugin (unsupported) | Not relayed (bot/app messages are not bridged) |
| Simultaneous Slack + Teams | One plugin per platform | Not relayed — use one plugin per platform |
| Routing per build status | Separate plugin config per status | Not offered |
| Dev and leadership discussion | Separate channels on separate platforms | Bridge the dev Slack channel with the leadership Teams channel |
| Human discussion across Slack, Teams, Webex, Google Chat, Zoom | Not available | Bridged human conversation |
Jenkins has a community plugin called the Microsoft Teams Notification Plugin available on the Jenkins plugin marketplace, but it is not an official integration and requires separate configuration from the Slack Notification Plugin. SyncRivo does not relay Jenkins notifications — messages posted by bots and apps are not bridged. Use the Jenkins Slack and Teams plugins to post build events on each platform; SyncRivo bridges the human discussion between chat platforms, so developers on Slack and managers on Teams can work a failed build in one bridged channel.
Jenkins supports outbound notifications via the Microsoft Teams Notification Plugin, the Slack Notification Plugin, and the HTTP Request Plugin for custom webhooks. Point the Teams plugin at your Teams channel webhook. SyncRivo is not a webhook receiver and does not relay Jenkins build events; it bridges the human conversation between Slack and Teams channels once the notifications are posted.
Yes — configure both the Slack Notification Plugin and the Microsoft Teams Notification Plugin in your pipeline. SyncRivo does not relay Jenkins notifications — messages posted by bots and apps are not bridged. SyncRivo helps with the conversation: bridge the dev team Slack channel with the release manager's Teams channel so both groups can discuss the failure together.
None. SyncRivo does not relay Jenkins notifications — messages posted by bots and apps are not bridged. Jenkins plugins can post build started, succeeded, failed, unstable, pipeline blocked (waiting for approval), deployment stage completed, and security scan failed events to Slack and Teams. SyncRivo bridges the human discussion that follows.
Not directly. Jenkins Declarative Pipelines support the slackSend() step (from the Slack Notification Plugin) and httpRequest() (from the HTTP Request Plugin), and the Teams plugin can be configured for Teams notifications. Point these at Slack and Teams directly — SyncRivo does not accept inbound webhooks. SyncRivo bridges the human conversation between the channels where builds are discussed.
In both cases the CI tool's own plugins or apps post the build notifications, and SyncRivo does not relay them. SyncRivo's role is the same for either CI system: bridging the human discussion between Slack, Teams, Webex, Google Chat, and Zoom Team Chat.
Bridge the human discussion of Jenkins builds across any combination of Slack, Teams, Google Chat, Webex, and Zoom Team Chat.
Slack + Teams + Google Chat
Bridge Slack, Teams, and Google Chat simultaneously.
Slack + Teams + Webex

See how SyncRivo bridges a dev Slack channel and an engineering leadership Teams channel so both can discuss a Jenkins build failure together.
