+## Update Connectors URL
+
+The [Teams connectors are transitioning](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/microsoft365dev/retirement-of-office-365-connectors-within-microsoft-teams) to a new URL to enhance security. During this transition, you may receive notifications to update your configured connector to use the new URL. We strongly recommended that you update your connector immediately to prevent any disruption to connector services.
+
+This change is needed only for webhook-based Connectors such as Incoming Webhook and third-party connectors. The change isn't required for polling connectors such as RSS. You must update the URL for the connector to continue posting notifications into Teams after December 31, 2024. To update the URL, follow these steps:
+
+1. Go to **Manage Channel** in a Teams channel, select **Edit** under the Connectors option, and select **Configured** section. Check the existing connector connections on this page. Update only those connections that display `Attention required` under the Manage option.

 ## Enable or disable connectors in Teams
 
 The Exchange Online PowerShell v2 module uses modern authentication and works with multifactor authentication (MFA) to connect to all Exchange related PowerShell environments in Microsoft 365. Admins can use Exchange Online PowerShell to disable connectors for an entire organization or a specific group mailbox. If a connector is disabled, it affects all users in that org or mailbox. You can't disable a connector for a few specific users.
