Box 1: Yes

Once an outgoing webhook is added to a team, it acts like bot, listening in channels for messages using @mention, sending notifications to external web services, and responding with rich messages that can include cards and images.

Box 2: Yes

Webhooks are a great way for Teams to integrate with external apps. A webhook is essentially a POST request sent to a callback URL. In Teams, outgoing webhooks provide a simple way to allow users to send messages to your web service without having to go through the full process of creating bots via the Microsoft Bot Framework. Outgoing webhooks post data from Teams to any chosen service capable of accepting a JSON payload.

Box 3: Yes
