I am developing MS teams bot.
I am creating a function to send a webhook automatically when I receive a message.
The development was carried out by referring to the URL below.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/webhooks-and-connectors/how-to/add-outgoing-webhook
Like the URL above, teams support outgoing webbook.
However, the outgoing webbook must manually enter #mention in the chat window for the bot to work.
I want to tag #mention automatically when I receive a message
Is there a way to do a webhook?
Even if it's not an outgoing webbook,
The robot or ms flow can receive messages and send messages automatically.
I want to develop a robot.
You also need to provide that bot for use by multiple teams.
I'm not sure if you can automatically sync all messages in a channel. But you can use the graph API to constantly check the channel for new messages and pull them into your service.Graph API
You can subscribe to notifications for Microsoft Teams messages. This feature is available in beta on the Microsoft Graph API.

Is there a way to send proactive cards from a bot to a Teams channel? The use case is a channel for service tickets. Once they get posted, a user will be able to interact with them with a few actions.
I’m looking at the documentation here for sending proactive messages. At the bottom, there’s a section for ”Creating channel conversations”, with a small reference to the startReplyChain(). However, the actual code and sample on GitHub still seem to reference a conversation with a member rather than sending something proactive to a channel.
There does appear to be documentation for incoming and outgoing webhooks, which is what I may end up doing. My only real concern is that it requires using Actionable Cards, which it references as legacy everywhere. This is despite saying that you can’t send Adaptive Cards with them. Perhaps they intend to enable these connectors to send Adaptive Cards, it’s not just very clear to me if this is a long-term solution I should be focusing on.
This is definitely possible, and it's important to note that you can even send from another process/application (e.g. on a schedule from an AWS Lamba). You can see a sample here for this.
The process of sending the message is just part of the story though - you need to have certain information already saved (e.g. in your database) to know how to contact the right user, group chat, or channel conversation, but there are a few ways to get that information. The most common is, when you bot is added to the conversation, to get it from the conversationUpdate event. You'll need conversation id, service url, tenant id, and your bot's App Id (what you get in the Azure portal for your bot, and which you're using already in your app's configuration, teams manifest, etc.). You can read more about the topic here and here.
Another option, if you don't have access to conversationUpdate (e.g. the user hasn't installed your app) is to call the Graph API to install your app. It's only possible to do this to a channel (on the v1 or beta api) (see here) or to a user (see here), but on the beta api only, and not (yet?) for a group chat.
Is there any way to send activities that are happening in external application to ms teams activity feed through any api.Now I have designed a blog where other users can like comment and follow my post in the blog.So I want to get all the activities that are happening in my blog to ms teams.
The Microsoft Graph REST API uses a webhook mechanism to deliver change notifications to clients. A client is a web service that configures its own URL to receive notifications. Client apps use notifications to update their state upon changes.
subscription operations require read permission to the resource. For example, to get notifications for messages, your app needs the Mail.Read permission.
Please look at change notification API
I've been trying to implement the preview version of Microsoft's BotFramework for NodeJS SDK v4 on Teams as mentioned here. I've set up the messaging endpoint in the Azure portal and I'm able to receive the message events just fine.
I've tried out other bots in the Teams Store such as Hipmunk and they seem to be able to proactively message the users as soon as they get added on to the work space.
I've been through the documentation already and I know that I would need to work upon a ConversationUpdate event that fires in the event of a bot user being added to a team, but unfortunately I haven't received any such events. I've wired it up to be able to receive it because the handlers do work when I test the bot in web chat on the Azure portal. Is this some sort of bug in the Teams client itself or is there any alternative documentation that I've been missing. Please let me know if any code samples or further links are required to aid you in helping me as this is a pretty critical integration for me and my company.
I'm building a Slack (instant messaging) chat client, I'm looking for a way to trigger a notification to receipent when a new message is sent to him, push notification of course.
What's the endpoint or stream API to be able to trigger a push notification to devices?
I think it should be some backend microservice listening for incoming messages in a channel with a list for users to notify.
If you want to get instant notifications about new messages posted to a channel you can either use the Real Time Messaging API (RTM API) or the Events API.
The main difference:
RTM API uses Websockets and you will receive a constant stream of events about everything that happens on the connected workspace.
Events API uses standard HTTP requests and Slack will only send events to your endpoint that you subscribed too.
There are many factors to consider when choosing the right API for a project. Please also see the official FAQ from Slack on the topic for more details.
I'm able to get conversation details for webchat using https://webchat.botframework.com/api/conversations/[conversationId]/messages
Service URL for skype channel is https://skype.botframework.com, but I dont find any documentation for getting conversation details
You can use the DirectLine Rest API (see docs).
The Direct Line API is a simple REST API for connecting directly to a single bot. This API is intended for developers writing their own client applications, web chat controls, mobile apps, or service-to-service applications that will talk to their bot.
Within the Direct Line API, you will find:
An authentication mechanism using standard secret/token patterns
The ability to send messages from your client to your bot via an HTTP POST message
The ability to receive messages by polling HTTP GET
A stable schema, even if your bot changes its protocol version
You need to enable the DirectLine channel for your bot on (see screenshot)
You don't have to access each specific channel endpoint separately, you can do it all (with some limitations) through the DirectLine API.
Start a New Conversation
POST /api/conversations
Get Messages in a Conversation
GET /api/conversations/{conversationId}/messages
Send a Message
POST /api/conversations/{conversationId}/messages
The full details are in the docs as linked above.
Hope this helps
Can you be more specific about conversation details and what you're looking for?
Generally, you shouldn't assume those URL's are static BTW; an incoming message from the Bot Framework will have a ServiceURL that should be used for the life of that conversation. Some services may have multiple ServiceUrl's that they give out for different users.
