Microsoft Teams API Capabilities
Good morning, We are contacting you to find out whether it is possible to achieve the following functionalities through the Microsoft Teams API: Start a scheduled meeting automatically Through a voice command, a meeting scheduled in a room's calendar is automatically started, and all the necessary equipment and services are activated without any user intervention. Automatically answer an incoming call in a meeting room When a call is placed to a specific account, the room automatically answers the call without requiring any user action. Add participants to an ongoing call or meeting Allows new attendees to be added to an active meeting or call in progress. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Kind regards,
What if post adaptive card and wait for a response timeout
Hi Team, Scenario: Post the adaptive card to the team chat. If the user doesn't respond after 2 hours, the adaptive card should be updated as "Expired"with a new design on the same conversation. In an attempt to comply with this, I used a "Post adaptive card in char and wait for response." Challenges: What would happen if I posted an adaptable card and waited for a response timeout? I wouldn't get a response. An error is being thrown. Expectations include waiting for a response after receiving an adapted card. In any case, your card has already produced a message ID and posted. This action should to return a Message Id in the event that a timeout occurs. Would you kindly respond if you have discovered a solution?
Copilot Studio in Teams sometimes wraps user input with HTML tags (e.g., <div>)
I’m using Copilot Studio deployed to Microsoft Teams, and I noticed that user messages are occasionally received with HTML tags. For example, when a user sends "get me the onboarding status", sometimes it displays in the dialog box as "<div>get me the onboarding status</div>" This does not happen consistently. I’m not sure whether this is caused by how Teams renders or sends messages (e.g., HTML vs plain text), or if it is something specific to Copilot Studio. Is this expected behavior for the Teams channel? Any clarification or recommended handling would be appreciated.
Issue Sideloading Word Extension into Word Online via GoDaddy M365 Account
Hi everyone, We’re currently facing an issue while trying to sideload a Word extension into Word Online. From what we understand, the standard process is to upload the add-in through the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, after which users within the organisation can access it through the “Add-ins” section in Word Online. However, our organisation’s Microsoft 365 account was purchased through GoDaddy instead of directly from Microsoft. Because of this, attempts to access certain Microsoft 365 Admin Center features appear to get redirected to the GoDaddy Admin Center instead. We suspect this may be preventing us from accessing the required deployment/app management options needed for sideloading the extension. Has anyone faced a similar issue with GoDaddy-managed Microsoft 365 accounts? Any guidance or workaround suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.Regarding Teams Meeting Media Transport Behavior in VDI Optimization Scenario
Hello Microsoft Teams Engineering Team, I am currently working on a Browser Content Redirection / media offload implementation for a VDI environment, where WebRTC media transport is handled through a local native component while the Teams application continues running inside the virtual desktop session. While testing, I observed that: 1:1 calls successfully receive audio and video media But in meetings auido / video RTP is never forwarded despite successful ICE, DTLS, and SRTP establishment DTLS ApplicationData traffic is present during meetings, suggesting DataChannel/SCTP activity Based on transport-level observations, it appears that Teams meetings may rely on SCTP/DataChannel communication for SFU video subscription management, while 1:1 calls do not require the same subscription flow. I wanted to ask whether: Teams meeting video forwarding depends on active bidirectional SCTP/DataChannel connectivity Meeting video subscriptions are expected to be coordinated over the WebRTC data channel/control plane Split ownership of media transport and control-plane transport could affect expected Teams meeting behavior in VDI optimization scenarios Thank you for your time and guidance.

Hi Teams Platform team, We post structured status reports as Adaptive Cards into a Teams channel. The card consistently renders at a fixed width of 448 px on a 1080p display at 100% scaling with a maximized Teams desktop client — well below the available channel message stream width. Wide multi-column tables get truncated or wrapped, which significantly hurts readability. What we've tried No card-level `width` property exists in the Adaptive Cards schema. `msteams.width: "Full"` is documented to apply only to Stageview / task module / tab — silently ignored in channel messages (tested). Same payload via three delivery paths — Incoming Webhook, Logic App "Post adaptive card in chat or channel", and Microsoft Graph `POST /teams/{id}/channels/{id}/messages` — all render at the same narrow fixed width. The constraint is in the Teams channel-message renderer, not in any delivery layer. Minimal repro payload (7-column results table; all field names and values replaced with generic placeholders): { "type": "message", "attachments": [ { "contentType": "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive", "content": { "$schema": "https://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json", "type": "AdaptiveCard", "version": "1.5", "msteams": { "width": "Full" }, "body": [ { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Pipeline Report — run-001", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Medium" }, { "type": "Table", "gridStyle": "accent", "firstRowAsHeaders": true, "columns": [ { "width": 2 }, { "width": 1 }, { "width": 2 }, { "width": 1 }, { "width": 2 }, { "width": 1 }, { "width": 1 } ], "rows": [ { "type": "TableRow", "cells": [ { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Col-1", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Col-2", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Col-3", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Δ Col-3", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Col-4", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Δ Col-4", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Status", "weight": "Bolder", "size": "Small" }] } ] }, { "type": "TableRow", "cells": [ { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "item-a", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "mode-x", "size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "0.000/0.000","size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "+0.00%", "size": "Small", "color": "Good" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "0.000/0.000","size": "Small" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "-0.00%", "size": "Small", "color": "Attention" }] }, { "type": "TableCell", "items": [{ "type": "TextBlock", "text": "✅ Pass", "size": "Small" }] } ] } ] } ] } } ] } `msteams.width: "Full"` is present but has no visible effect in the channel message context. Feature request Either of: Honor `msteams.width: "Full"` in channel-message context (not just Stageview/task module/tab), OR Add a card-level property (e.g. `msteams.channelWidth: "Full" | "Default"`) explicitly scoped to channel messages. Is this a known limitation with an existing tracking item, or should we also file it on the M365 Feedback Portal for upvotes? Thanks!
Custom App (Static Tab) with SharePoint URL stays blank on first load in Teams Desktop Client
Hello Teams Developer Community, We have deployed a custom Teams app (v1.25) that uses a Static Tab to display our company's SharePoint intranet portal. The contentUrl and websiteUrl point to our SharePoint site. [The Issue] When a user clicks the app for the very first time in the Teams Desktop Client (New Teams), the screen remains completely blank (white loading screen). However, if the user clicks away to another app (like Chat or Teams) and then clicks back to our custom app, the SharePoint page loads perfectly. [Observations] This issue does NOT happen on Teams Web Client (browser). It loads instantly there. Clearing the Teams Desktop cache does not solve the problem. It seems to be related to WebView2 authentication/SSO redirect loops inside the iframe. I tried adding "showLoadingIndicator": true in Developer Portal, but the schema automatically strips it out upon saving. [Question] Is there a specific parameter we need to append to the SharePoint URL, or specific domains we must add to "validDomains", to prevent this initial blank screen caused by auth delays in the Desktop Client? Any guidance on handling this WebView2 rendering delay would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.Set work location via API (Graph?)
Hey community! The new work hours and location feature is rolling out for Outlook and Teams: https://blog.admindroid.com/work-hours-and-location-in-outlook-for-efficient-collaboration/ Does anyone know who to read and write this information (especially the location) via API / Microsoft Graph? This is a nice feature and we would like to set this programmatically. Thank you very much! Best regards, Jens
