Referencing users when posting content to Office 365 Connector Cards - webhooks

How do I reference another user when posting to a Microsoft Teams channel using a webhook. I can use the text property within the json to specify basic content body but how would I add for example
"Need to ask #Jim about this project" and have Jim receive a reference to this post?
Using the following reference as a guide https://dev.outlook.com/Connectors/Reference
Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

Programmatic #mentions are currently not supported in Microsoft Teams. It's on the backlog, though, and should be coming soon.

Outlook Tasks in Microsoft Graph

I am interested to to use Outlook Tasks. I know that is it available in Microsoft Graph Beta (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/rest/compare-graph-outlook)
Does anyone know that when will it be released?
Thanks,
You could post the question and feedback to Official under the article you provided directly.

Apparently the Outlook tasks API has been deprecated and is superseded by the ToDo API :/

Custom workflow based on templates with multi-user e-sign

After initial browsing in Google, I couldn't work out the scope of DocuSign API.
I would like to know if it's feasible to implement these features
Multiple templates with custom form fields
Assign workflow to templates - multi-user e-signing by stages?
automate e-signing internally
User management/privileges - to create new document, recall/cancel, etc
Manage List of recipients - type association
Reporting such as; number of documents signed in the last month,
Please briefly explain what is DocuSign capable of and what needs to be developed differently
Thanks in advance
The general answer to your question is "yes." The DocuSign website, Developer Center, and Signature API reference documentation can help you understand the DocuSign Signature product and APIs.
If you have additional questions, you can talk with DocuSign staff, or try it for yourself. The Developer center enables you to create a free developer sandbox.
For API issues, you can also ask questions here on StackOverflow. Note that your questions should be much more specific than the questions you listed above. You also should show what you have already tried and what is not working for you.

API for Tracking changes / viewing revisions for Microsoft Word

In Microsoft Word, there is an option to track changes/view revisions pertaining to a specific document. I would like to know if there is any API to access those changes via an Office Add-In.
Also, via this link, the consensus is that there is no such API available. But since, this is an old post, we would like to know if the situation has changed.
Furthermore, according to this link, there is the presence of Reviewer object for VBA shown. However, is it valid for Office Add-In? If yes, Is it supported in other programming languages like Node.js. If it does, are there any code samples available?
The functionality you are asking about is still not supported in the JavaScript API for Word. Please make sure to add this request (or vote for an existing one) in our user voice channel. thanks.

Searching with Office 365 Unified API

I am having trouble using the new Office 365 Unified API for searching for email. I would really appreciate it if I could get some help.
I get the following error:
{"error":{"code":"ErrorInvalidArgument","message":"The value specified for search scope 'PrimaryMailbox' is invalid."}}
I was able to get the access token for graph.microsoft.com and retrieve all the messages from my inbox by doing a GET to "https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/me/messages".
However, when I add the search parameter $search="Tomcat", I get the error copied above. Any ideas how I can resolve this? Is there any documentation to clarify this? I have searched the Office Dev Center documentation in detail but could not find anything to help with searching in the Unified API. Eventually, I want to use the Unified API to search for users' contacts, calendar entries, OneDrive files, and SharePoint online.
On a related note, I can successfully search for mail messages using the existing Office 365 API by making a GET call to "https://outlook.office365.com/api/v1.0/me/messages". However, I am more interested in the streamlined Unified API approach and hope I can resolve the above issue.
Also, is there a way to search all mailboxes in a single search using either the existing API (https://outlook.office365.com) or the new Unified API (https://graph.microsoft.com/)?
Thanks.

The Unified API preview documentation lists all supported query parameters, and $search isn't included. It does support $filter, so you can do some basic searches using that.
The Mail API does support $search, but there is no way to search across multiple mailboxes in one query.
You can use the below conditions for searching in outlook
to search in particular folder(Ex: Drafts,Inbox)--/me/MailFolders/Inbox/messages?$search={1} : where 1 will be your search text
If you want to search in all folders then /me/MailFolders/Allitems/messages?$search={1}: where {1} is the text you want to search

Send EMail in Sharepoint Online 2013

I want to send an Email in Sharepoint online. I used the following method to send the mail using the Event reciever.
SPUtility.SendEmail(SPContext.Current.Web, headers, bodyText.ToString());
But it does not work with sharepoint online 2013.
After reading in the articles I got to know that SPUtility method cannot be used. Please provide me a solution to send mail through event reciever. I am creating it as a Sandbox Solution.
Can we Use Microsoft Exchange Server? How Can I use it?
Thanks for the helps!
You could use a workaround by leveraging the SendMail activity in a workflow. This is also explained here: Guru Tip: Sending an Email in Office 365.
Unfortunately using this workflow workaround will be your only choice as both SPUtility.SendEmail as well as System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient are not allowed in Sandboxed solutions which is also explained in this post: Send email via code in Office365
How to import Emails or part of the Email data to Sharepoint libraries or Sharepoint lists you can find on "The smart way from mailbox to Sharepoint". It works fine for Sharepoint online.
