Included Features

  • Tabs
  • Adaptive Cards
  • Graph API

Interaction with app

Prerequisites

Run the app (Using Teams Toolkit for Visual Studio Code)

The simplest way to run this sample in Teams is to use Teams Toolkit for Visual Studio Code.

  1. Ensure you have downloaded and installed Visual Studio Code
  2. Install the Teams Toolkit extension
  3. Select File > Open Folder in VS Code and choose this samples directory from the repo
  4. Using the extension, sign in with your Microsoft 365 account where you have permissions to upload custom apps
  5. Select Debug > Start Debugging or F5 to run the app in a Teams web client.
  6. In the browser that launches, select the Add button to install the app to Teams.

Setup

  • Ensure that you've enabled the Teams Channel NOTE: When you create app registration, you will create an App ID and App password - make sure you keep these for later.
  1. Register a new application in the Microsoft Entra ID – App Registrations portal.
  • Select New Registration and on the register an application page, set following values:

    • Set name to your app name.
    • Choose the supported account types (any account type will work)
    • Leave Redirect URI empty.
    • Choose Register.
  • On the overview page, copy and save the Application (client) ID, Directory (tenant) ID. You’ll need those later when updating your Teams application manifest and in the appsettings.json.

  • Under Manage, select Expose an API.

  • Select the Set link to generate the Application ID URI in the form of api://{AppID}. Insert your fully qualified domain name (with a forward slash "/" appended to the end) between the double forward slashes and the GUID. The entire ID should have the form of: api://fully-qualified-domain-name/{AppID}

    • ex: api://%ngrokDomain%.ngrok-free.app/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000.
  • Select the Add a scope button. In the panel that opens, enter access_as_user as the Scope name.

  • Set Who can consent? to Admins and users

  • Fill in the fields for configuring the admin and user consent prompts with values that are appropriate for the access_as_user scope: * Admin consent title: Teams can access the user’s profile. * Admin consent description: Allows Teams to call the app’s web APIs as the current user. * User consent title: Teams can access the user profile and make requests on the user's behalf. * User consent description: Enable Teams to call this app’s APIs with the same rights as the user. - Ensure that State is set to Enabled -. Select Add scope * The domain part of the Scope name displayed just below the text field should automatically match the Application ID URI set in the previous step, with /access_as_user appended to the end:

    • `api://[ngrokDomain].ngrok-free.app/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/access_as_user.
  • In the Authorized client applications section, identify the applications that you want to authorize for your app’s web application. Each of the following IDs needs to be entered:

    • 1fec8e78-bce4-4aaf-ab1b-5451cc387264 (Teams mobile/desktop application)
    • 5e3ce6c0-2b1f-4285-8d4b-75ee78787346 (Teams web application)
  • Note If you want to test or extend your Teams apps across Office and Outlook, kindly add below client application identifiers while doing Azure AD app registration in your tenant:

    • 4765445b-32c6-49b0-83e6-1d93765276ca (Office web)
    • 0ec893e0-5785-4de6-99da-4ed124e5296c (Office desktop)
    • bc59ab01-8403-45c6-8796-ac3ef710b3e3 (Outlook web)
    • d3590ed6-52b3-4102-aeff-aad2292ab01c (Outlook desktop)
  • Navigate to API Permissions, and make sure to add the follow permissions:

  • Select Add a permission

  •  Select Microsoft Graph -> Delegated permissions.

    • User.Read (enabled by default)
    • email
    • offline_access
    • OpenId
    • profile
    • Chat.Create
    • Chat.ReadWrite
    • ChatMember.ReadWrite
    • TeamsAppInstallation.ReadWriteForChat
    • TeamsAppInstallation.ReadWriteSelfForChat
    • TeamsTab.Create
    • TeamsTab.ReadWriteForChat
    • TeamsTab.ReadWrite.All
    • User.Read.All
  • Click on Add permissions.

  • Navigate to Authentication If an app hasn't been granted IT admin consent, users will have to provide consent the first time they use an app. Set a redirect URI:

    • Select Add a platform.
    • Select Single Page Application.
    • Enter the redirect URI for the app in the following format: https://%ngrokDomain%.ngrok-free.app/auth/auth-end.
  • Navigate to the Certificates & secrets. In the Client secrets section, click on "+ New client secret". Add a description (Name of the secret) for the secret and select “Never” for Expires. Click "Add". Once the client secret is created, copy its value, it need to be placed in the appsettings.json.

  1. Setup NGROK
  • 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
  1. Setup for code
  • Clone the repository

    git clone https://github.com/OfficeDev/Microsoft-Teams-Samples.git
  • In a terminal, navigate to samples/graph-chat-lifecycle/nodejs

    cd samples/graph-chat-lifecycle/nodejs
  • Update your config/default.json file

    • Replace the YOUR-MICROSOFT-APP-ID property with you Azure AD application ID.
    • Replace the YOUR-MICROSOFT-APP-PASSWORD property with the "client secret" you were assigned.
  • Install modules

    npm install
  • Start the bot

    npm start

If you are using Visual Studio code

  • Launch Visual Studio code
  • Folder -> Open -> Project/Solution
  • Navigate to samples\graph-chat-lifecycle\nodejs folder
  • Select graph-chat-lifecycle\nodejs Folder
  1. This step is specific to Teams.
    • Edit the manifest.json contained in the appManifest folder in src folder to replace your Microsoft App Id (that was created when you registered your bot earlier) everywhere you see the place holder string <<YOUR-MICROSOFT-APP-ID>> (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json). Also, replace your Base url wherever you see the place holder string <<YOUR-BASE-URL>>. Note: If you want to test your app across multi hub like: Outlook/Office.com, please update the manifest.json in the appManifest_Hub folder with the required values.
    • Zip up the contents of the appManifest folder to create a Manifest.zip or Manifest_Hub folder to create a Manifest_Hub.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")
