## Overview | ||
|
||
Automations allow you to trigger actions based on events in On-Call. There are two types: | ||
- **Handover automations**: Triggered automatically when an on-call shift changes. | ||
- **[Workflow automations][1]**: A low-code/no-code solution that lets you define actions based on various on-call activities. | ||
|
||
|
||
## Handover automations | ||
Handover automations run automatically at the start or end of an on-call shift. They're designed to handle tasks that teams typically manage with custom scripts—such as notifying other systems about who's on-call, updating internal dashboards, or rotating credentials. | ||
|
||
By using built-in automations instead of maintaining cron jobs or custom tools, you can streamline operations, eliminate manual steps, and ensure the right actions always run when a shift changes. | ||
|
||
|
||
<div class="alert alert-warning"> | ||
If you need a specific action that isn't listed, contact your account representative or <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>. | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
Handover Automations are maintained on a Team level. To get started, navigate to [On-Call Team][4], open a specific team, and scroll down to the **Handover Automation** section. | ||
|
||
### Send a Slack message | ||
Post a message to Slack at the start or end of a shift using a handover automation. The message shows the previous and next on-call users (if any). **Note**: This requires the Datadog Slack app—make sure it's [added to your workspace][2]. | ||
|
||
### Send a Microsoft Teams message | ||
Post a message to Microsoft Teams at the start or end of a shift using a handover automation. The message shows the previous and next on-call users (if any). **Note**: This requires the Datadog Teams app—make sure it's [added to your workspace][3]. | ||
