Anyone using Node-Red in combination with Office365 ?
yes, node-red was initiated by ibm, but it is driven by a nice community :)
if you compare the amount of triggers within node-red with the "175 triggers" MS flow offers at the moment, then i would say that the open community of node-red offers much more
the main target group for MS Flow (in my opinion) are the Endusers
-->if there is a new file on onedrive, then do whatever)
..whereas with Node-red you have plenty of things for system people (and all the folks who are interested in this IoT topic)
one example:
there is no ms flow thingie available for Apache Kafka. Kafka is in my case one key element which i use to re-route all differnt things (and to use it in combination with node-red).
If you miss a "Node", then just develope it yourself....
there are for sure dozens/hundreds of other usecases.
as said, MS Flow is cool stuff...but just targeting endusers which is in my case the wrong group of people.
Stefan,
Thanks forthe info!
I want to use Node red with Skype and I am looking for some guidance. If you have something to share, I would appreciate it!
Regards,
Marc

what Skype things you want to cover?
A notification to a skype chat?
Notified whenever a specific user starts a conference?
Old lync backend or the new skype backend within teams?
Tell me your use case and i can hopefully give you a proper answer :)

Hi Stefan,
I am looking to exchange messages between Office 365 products and other services.
For example, create a message in Sharepoint and the user will receive a Skype or Teams message along with an email in Outlook but also, a text via SMS. Node Red will allow me to efficiently connect with other services other than Microsoft such as SMS or other messaging platforms.
Thanks!
