Interaction with app

Daily Task Reminder

Try it yourself - experience the App in your Microsoft Teams client

Bot daily task reminder: Manifest

Prerequisites

  • .NET Core SDK version 6.0

    determine dotnet version

    dotnet --version
  • dev tunnel or Ngrok (For local environment testing) latest version (any other tunneling software can also be used)

  • Teams Microsoft Teams is installed and you have an account

Setup

  1. Register a new application in the Microsoft Entra ID – App Registrations portal.

  2. Setup for Bot

  • Also, register a bot with Azure Bot Service, following the instructions here.
    • Ensure that you've enabled the Teams Channel
    • While registering the bot, use https://<your_tunnel_domain>/api/messages as the messaging endpoint.
  1. Run ngrok - point to port 3978

    ngrok http 3978 --host-header="localhost:3978"

    Alternatively, you can also use the dev tunnels. Please follow Create and host a dev tunnel and host the tunnel with anonymous user access command as shown below:

    devtunnel host -p 3978 --allow-anonymous
  2. Setup for code

    • Clone the repository

      git clone https://github.com/OfficeDev/Microsoft-Teams-Samples.git
    • Launch Visual Studio

      • File -> Open -> Project/Solution
      • Navigate to folder where repository is cloned then samples/bot-daily-task-reminder/csharp/BotDailyTaskReminder.sln
    • Modify the appsettings.json and fill in the following details:

      • {{Microsoft-App-Id}} - Generated from Step 1 is the application app id
      • {{ Microsoft-App-Password}} - Generated from Step 1, also referred to as Client secret
      • {{ Application Base Url }} - Your application's base url. E.g. https://12345.ngrok-free.app if you are using ngrok and if you are using dev tunnels, your URL will be https://12345.devtunnels.ms.
      • Press F5 to run the project
  3. Setup Manifest for Teams

    • This step is specific to Teams.

      • Edit the manifest.json contained in the ./AppManifest folder to replace your Microsoft App Id (that was created when you registered your app registration earlier) everywhere you see the place holder string {{Microsoft-App-Id}} (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json)
      • Edit the manifest.json for validDomains and replace {{domain-name}} with base Url of your domain. E.g. if you are using ngrok it would be https://1234.ngrok-free.app then your domain-name will be 1234.ngrok-free.app and if you are using dev tunnels then your domain will be like: 12345.devtunnels.ms.
      • Zip up the contents of the AppManifest folder to create a manifest.zip (Make sure that zip file does not contains any subfolder otherwise you will get error while uploading your .zip package)
    • Upload the manifest.zip to Teams (in the Apps view click "Upload a custom app")

      • Go to Microsoft Teams. From the lower left corner, select Apps
      • From the lower left corner, choose Upload a custom App
      • Go to your project directory, the ./AppManifest folder, select the zip folder, and choose Open.
      • Select Add in the pop-up dialog box. Your app is uploaded to Teams.

Note: If you are facing any issue in your app, please uncomment this line and put your debugger for local debug.
