Unable to make bullet list in MS Teams manifest long description
Hi all - Does the long description in the MS Teams app manifest allow for markdown or HTML? Trying to add a bullet list into our MS Teams app manifest, but it's simply not rendering. Interestingly, the link url in markdown seems to render fine only in MS Teams, but not on the Microsoft Teams Admin Center. Here's the manifest long description: "description": { "short": "Receive your Datadog alerts and collaborate on incidents in Microsoft Teams.", "full": "Datadog is the essential monitoring and security platform for cloud applications. \n\nThis app lets you: <ul><li>Send notifications from Datadog to never miss an important event. </li><li>Create and collaborate on Datadog incidents without leaving Microsoft Teams. </li><li>Use Datadog Workflow Automation to send messages and decision prompts to Microsoft Teams. </li></ul> \n\nNewList:*Send notifications from Datadog to never miss an important event. *Create and collaborate on Datadog incidents without leaving Microsoft Teams. *Use Datadog Workflow Automation to send messages and decision prompts to Microsoft Teams. \n\nNewList:+Send notifications from Datadog to never miss an important event. +Create and collaborate on Datadog incidents without leaving Microsoft Teams. +Use Datadog Workflow Automation to send messages and decision prompts to Microsoft Teams. \n\nYou need an active Datadog organization and user account to use this app.\n\nVisit [our documentation](https://docs.datadoghq.com/integrations/microsoft_teams/) for information on how to get started." }, Thanks!
Outlook plugin: Updating manifest doesn't work, Update TenantAppDefinition failed
Hello, I raised this request to the official MS customer service already and they couldn't help. The problem is as follows: We are developing an Outlook Add-In using the 'new' JSON manifest way. So far, we deployed our plugin to the Azure BLOB storage destination as it's specified by Teams Toolkit. Also, we were able to register it in the MS Teams Admin Center. Now we wanted to make some changes to our icons registration in the manifest file and ran into an unknown exception. For testing, we reverted those changes and only increased the version number. However, the error message remained as-is, although the same manifest worked some time (maybe 1-2 weeks maybe) ago. There were no changes to the manifest file since then, except an increase in the version number. The manifest can be submitted without any issues if the "ribbons" part is completely removed. However, it passes all validations described in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/testing/troubleshoot-manifest . All icons match the specifications. The same happens if we submit it as a new app. This is the error message that we could intercept in the browser's DEV Tools when submitting the manifest in the appPackage to MS Teams Admin Center (manage existing app).
