[Teams] Adaptive card opens outlook email template
Hello! I'm currently developing a command bot that would display some information after the user types a command. I've successfully deployed my bot to azure environment via the teams-toolkit 5.0 ...
Yes, you can create an adaptive card that, when clicked, opens an Outlook email template. Here's how you can do it:
- Create an adaptive card that includes a button element. Here's an example JSON code for an adaptive card with a button element:
{ "type": "AdaptiveCard","body": [{ "type": "TextBlock","text": "Click the button to open an email template." }],"actions": [{ "type": "Action.OpenUrl","title": "Open Email Template","url": "mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons?subject=Example%20Subject&body=Example%20Body"}]}- In the actions array, specify the type of action as Action.OpenUrl. This action allows you to specify a URL to open when the button is clicked.
- In the url field, specify the mailto: protocol followed by the email recipient's email address, subject, and body. You can use URL encoding to encode spaces and special characters in the subject and bodyhttps://www.gotravelaindonesia.com/
When the user clicks the button in the adaptive card, it will open a new email message in Outlook with the specified recipient, subject, and body.

Thank you for that example!
I still for some reason have an strange instance where teams on the web would become unresponsive after I click on the "Open Email Template" button, but it won't crash on the desktop app.
Any ideas?
