Auto approve a join request
Hi everyone, we´re currently trying to auto approve join requests for Microsoft Teams. I just checked the whole process and found out that through this link you can send a POST approval which is...
Hi belasor ,
That's an internal API used by the Teams UI, it's not documented and realistically you'll struggle to achieve authentication for any other process to call it. There is an unofficial powershell that tries, but it's majorly unsupported.
The official supported apis for Teams are at graph.microsoft.com. There isn't an api to specifically approve a request, but you can just add a member, this would clear the pending request anyway. See Add member to team - Microsoft Graph beta | Microsoft Docs.
I'm not sure I really see what you are trying to achieve, why not make the group Public then there simply isn't a need for a user to be approved or added, they just join immediately.
Yeah the approach seems a bit off here. What is the goal of auto approving vs just making it public?
Another approach could be to utilize join codes. I'm pretty sure you could find a way to run whatever POST happens when someone enter's these codes into the join screen and replicate that into some automation.
