Can you receive faxes in Microsoft Teams?

Yes. With a GoFax fax number, your faxes can arrive in a Microsoft Teams channel. You add the channel's email address to your fax number in GoFax. Each new fax is then posted in that channel as a PDF, so your team can open it, download it and act on it without leaving Teams.

How to send faxes to Microsoft Teams

Setup takes a few minutes. You need a GoFax account with a fax number, and a Teams channel you can manage.

1. Create a channel

In Teams, create a team, or open one you already use. Add a standard channel for your faxes. Naming it after your fax number makes it easy to find.

2. Copy its email address

Open the channel's menu and choose "Get email address". Copy the address Teams gives you.

3. Add it in GoFax

Log in to GoFax and go to Receive Fax Service, then Manage Fax Numbers. Choose your fax number and paste the address under "Add a new address".

Why use Teams fax with GoFax

Faxes often sit unseen in one person's inbox. In a Teams channel, everyone who needs them sees them at once.

  • Your whole team sees new faxes as they arrive, not just one inbox.

  • Reply in the channel to show who is handling each fax.

  • Open or download the PDF in one click.

  • Keep sending faxes to email as well if you need to.

One channel for each fax number

Have more than one fax number? Give each one its own channel. Referrals can go to your clinical team, orders to your sales team and accounts to finance, so every fax lands with the people who act on it.

Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with optional data sovereignty to keep it all in Australia.

Microsoft Teams fax questions

Teams fax means your incoming faxes arrive in a Microsoft Teams channel instead of on a fax machine or only in an email inbox. GoFax receives the fax on your fax number, turns it into a PDF and sends it to your channel's email address. It then shows in the channel for your team.

A GoFax account with a fax number, and a standard channel in Microsoft Teams that you can manage. If you do not have a fax number yet, you can get one when you sign up.

See pricing

No. There is no extra charge to receive faxes in Teams. You pay for your fax number as normal.

Yes. Repeat the setup for each fax number and give each one its own channel.

Yes. You can add your Teams channel as well as one or more email addresses, so each fax goes to all of them.

How fax to email works

No. GoFax sends your incoming faxes to Teams, but you cannot send a fax from Teams. To send, use email, the GoFax web app or the GoFax desktop app.

Send a fax from email

Check three things. First, that the address in GoFax matches the channel's email address. Second, that your Microsoft 365 admin allows email to channels. Third, if the channel only accepts email from certain domains, that it allows gofax.com.au. Still stuck? Our team can help.

Ask our team

Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with optional data sovereignty to keep it all in Australia. Once a fax is posted in Teams, it is stored in Microsoft 365 under your organisation's own settings, so only people with access to the channel can see it.

We have used GoFax for years

We have used GoFax for years and they are so affordable for a small business. I cannot fault their service. They keep in regular contact regarding network outages, etc. We are now increasing our business with them and once again, I cannot fault the simplicity of service and the product offering for a small business. Thanks GoFax - Go Well!

GoFax was easy to set-up and use

GoFax was easy to set-up and use. I needed to fax tax documents to the US from NZ. GoFax did the trick. It took me less than 40 minutes from researching online fax software to getting my fax sent confirmations. 100 pages for A$15, highly recommended and great value, only problem now is what to do with remaining 96 pages!

Support was fabulous!

Joseph was a huge help in assisting me to learn how to navigate GoFax and use it to its maximum utility for me in my professional role. He also helped me to edit my Settings on GoFax to avoid unnecessary charges for Notification services I simply don't need. He was fabulous at walking me through step by step way using accessible language for an older generation user of these kinds of technologies!

10 stars! Amazing service from Joseph! He called me and explained everything and guided me through the 4 simple steps, even hunted us a fax number closer to match what we needed. I can't speak highly enough of the service that was provided, he went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with everything and what a simple process everything was!

Great, friendly service

Service on both days from Joseph was helpful and very prompt. Teams service was excellent as it gave Joseph an opportunity to try to replicate the problem I was having yesterday. Joseph also provided me with an alternative to send Faxes by using send.gofax.com.au. This made my bulk work quicker and less frustrating. Great work Joseph and GoFax company for following up with me in a timely manner.

Amazing service

Administation is easy - was able to create an email group, populate it, and then advertise that as the desitination for incoming faxes. The sender didn't know the difference! Furthermore, I was able to integrate into the scanning feature of the printer. All the user does is scan their page, creates a PDF and sends off the fax direct from the printer. The users love it and although we get plenty of messages about maintenance an updates, we have never had any problems using GoFax.

Quick, easy and worth doing

Joe was super helpful and his instructions were easy to understand and follow. He had the info at his fingertips and could recall my previous conversations with Natalie so that you didn't have to go through it all again. He knew his stuff with the telco's so the transition across would go smoother. Well worth the effort of changing over to GoFax.
