Using Application Authentication for Sending Messages to Teams Channel
Hello everyone, I'm currently working on a C# application that needs to send messages to a Teams channel. I was wondering if it's possible to use application authentication to achieve this? If so...

MicrosoftSudhishSoman - Using application permission you can send the message in channel using following API:
POST /teams/{team-id}/channels/{channel-id}/messages
but application permissions are only supported for migration.

- Hi,
Thank you for your response to my previous message regarding sending messages to a Teams channel using C# code. I tried using the API endpoint you suggested with application authentication, but it showed an error stating that POST messages are only allowed in application-only context for import purposes.
Additionally, I also tried delegated authentication which always required user interaction to generate a token.
Thank you again for your assistance in this matter.- Nivedipa-MSFTSudhishSoman - You can use the above-mentioned graph API only in migration not general purpose.
