How to get list of channels and members in teams bot
Hi, I’m working on building a Microsoft Teams bot and came across the TeamsInfo.getTeamChannels(turnContext, teamId) method in the BotBuilder SDK. Could you help clarify how it works? Speci...
- The TeamsInfo.GetPagedMembersAsync(turnContext) method can be used in various activities, not just in onConversationUpdate. This method is designed to fetch a paginated list of members from a one-on-one, group, or team conversation. It is not limited to being set up in onConversationUpdate.
You can indeed utilize it in the onMessage handler or any other activity handler. When you pass the context received to GetPagedMembersAsync, it will provide the full list of members that are part of the team, not just the members involved in the specific conversation. This method is particularly useful for handling large teams, as it supports pagination to manage the retrieval of members efficiently.

yashgandhi - Approach to get the list of channels in a team is mentioned here in this section https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/bots/how-to/get-teams-context?tabs=dotnet#get-the-list-of-channels-in-a-team. The name of the default General channel is returned as
null, are you getting undefined for general channel.Could you please let us know your RSC permission requirement, meanwhile we have few sample which use RSC.

Also i want to get list of channels proactive so i dont have turncontext. and when i generate token with rsc context it not work- After lot of debugging the app u shared as an exmaple and the app i created have some difference in generated tokens. The toke i generated is missing in jwt token `roles:[Group.Selected]` now u know what could be i am missing so its not working ?
