How To Send A Message From User To Bot In Microsoft Teams App?
member11 You could directly send a message to the bot using Teams client. What is that you are looking for? Could you please elaborate?
Gousia_Begum I'm working on an integration between Microsoft Teams and Slack.
I'm building a Microsoft Teams application which is connected to a Microsoft Bot.
Additionally, I created a server for:
1. Listening to messages which were sent by users in Slack (via Slack webhooks)
2. Posting them in Microsoft Teams conversation as a user message to the bot (outgoing message)
I cannot accomplish item number 2.
I receive messages from Slack (which were sent by a Slack user) to my server and I wish to post them in Microsoft Teams as messages from the user to the bot and I'm not able to do so.
member11 I've not done this via Node (js) but I've got it working fine in C#, sending on a schedule from an Azure function. Here's the gist of what you need (see the replies): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42749982/initiate-a-message-from-bot-to-user-on-botframework
Thank you Hilton Giesenow. Actually I'm looking for another behaviour...
In the example you sent the new message arrived from "consoleBot" while I'd like to send it as "User".
In such case the message would be displayed inside a blue bubble and it'd look like the user sent it.
The UX is crucial in this use case.
