How to format an Azure Logic App JSON payload containing a Teams message with Azure Alert?


I've been trying to configure Azure Alerts (specifically VM low disk space query) to send a message to a Teams channel every time an alert is triggered using an Azure Logic App. It does what it's supposed to, however I do not know how to format the message to make it look a bit more neat. What I'm currently getting is this: Teams message I get

I'd like it to also contain the drive and value (which the email alerts triggered by the same query do). I am using the built-in Logic App Teams integration (Post message in a chat or channel). Currently just configured to return the configurationItems value which sadly, is the closest I got to what I want to achieve, anything else displays an absolute mess of JSON code. Logic App Designer view

I've tried different combination of values and variables but the app designer is very limited in what it allows me to do. The query I'm using is:

InsightsMetrics 
| where Namespace == "LogicalDisk" 
| where Name == "FreeSpacePercentage" 
| extend Disk=tostring(todynamic(Tags)["vm.azm.ms/mountId"]) 
| summarize arg_max(TimeGenerated, *) by Disk, Computer 
| project Computer, Disk, Val | where Val < 10 

The data I want to 'extract' is stored in the Computer, Disk and Val dimensions. Below is the JSON output payload from the logic app, as you can see all the data I need to extract is stored in the dimensions stored above.

Below is the Logic App Code View, I am quite sure that I can achieve my goal by manually editing the 'messageBody' part, but I am not sure what needs changing:

My question is: How do I modify this app to send a nice and neat message to our Teams channel, displaying the alert with Computer name, disk and value? I was thinking about using IncomingWebhook integration instead but I am not sure how to configure it. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

I tried modifying the values within the App Designer but it ended up displaying a mess of incomprehensible code in the message. Clicking the dimensions value within app designer automatically puts in in the foreach loop which kinda makes sense as there are multiple dimensions but I do not know how to extract the desired values from the payload. I am using the Azure Common Alerts Schema.

  • How do I modify this app to send a nice and neat message to our Teams channel, displaying the alert with Computer name, disk and value? I was thinking about using IncomingWebhook integration instead but I am not sure how to configure it. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

    Firstly created a incoming webhook like below:

    Design:

    Then:

    enter image description here

    body:

    {"text":@{body('Create_HTML_table')}}
    

    Output: enter image description here

    enter image description here

    Parse Json schema:

            "body": {
