App Validation Issue - Bot must send a proactive welcome message in personal scope
I'm working on a bot application for MS Teams using the Python SDK and encountered a challenge with app validation and the proactive welcome message requirement. What Happened: Initially, our bot handled the welcome message through on_installation_update, but app validation failed with the error: "Bot must send a proactive welcome message in personal scope." To satisfy validation, we added on_members_added_activity to send the welcome message for personal scope, which resolved the validation error. However, this created a new problem: on_members_added_activity is being triggered when we call the Graph API to query chats or users: {graph_url}/me/chats $filter=chatType eq 'oneOnOne' and installedApps/any(a:a/teamsApp/id eq '{teams_app_id}') {graph_url}/users/{user_id}/chats $filter=chatType eq 'oneOnOne' and installedApps/any(a:a/teamsApp/id eq '{teams_app_id}') According to a Stack Overflow discussion (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57496329/proactive-messaging-bot-in-teams-without-mentioning-the-bot-beforehand), this appears to be a known issue: calling this API triggers a conversation update event even though there were no actual updates, resulting in duplicate events and duplicate welcome messages. Questions: What is the official/recommended way to handle known issue: calling this API triggers a conversation update event? Whats the recommended way to read personal chat history of a user? Should we be using a different approach for this app validation requirement? Any guidance or pointers to official documentation would be greatly appreciated!Powershell adding a existing holiday to Auto Attendant

❓ Can't remove member from Microsoft Teams Group Chat using Graph API with Application Permission
Hi everyone, I’m currently working on creating a Teams group chat using Microsoft Graph API with application permissions, and I’ve run into several issues that I hope someone here can help clarify. Creating group chat with members and installed app (works) I followed the documentation here: “Create a one-on-one chat with installed apps” ➜ https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/chat-post?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http#example-3-create-a-one-on-one-chat-with-installed-apps Using application permissions, I successfully: - Created a group chat - Added multiple members - Installed my Teams app into the chat automatically My application has already been granted the following permissions: ChatMember.ReadWrite.All ChatMember.ReadWrite.WhereInstalled The purpose is to allow the app to add or remove chat members without requiring a signed-in user, since I am using fully non-delegated application permissions. However, when I try to remove a member from the group chat using Graph API with the application token, the request fails and returns an error. Trying RSC-granted approach – app not installed Next, I tried creating a group chat using the RSC-granted app approach: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/chat-post?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http#example-4-create-a-one-on-one-chat-with-rsc-granted-apps With the following permission: - ChatMember.ReadWrite.All And permission type: application The group chat is created successfully, but the app is not installed inside the chat, which means I still can’t proceed with removing a member using the app context. So this solution also stops midway. Creating chat first, then installing the app (also fails) Lastly, I attempted another method: Create the group chat normally After creation, install the app into it using this endpoint: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/chat-post-installedapps?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http I used an application access token again, but the request returns the same error as case #1 when attempting to remove a member.

Adaptive Card embedded audio doesn't play
Hi Everyone I have an adaptive card that was working until this week. I've got a workflow that sends an email when a voicemail is received, then saves the voicemail in SharePoint and sends the audio file embedded in an adaptive card in Teams. The code isn't complicated, I've just put the sharing link as a variable and then it's more or less like this: "type": "Media", "sources": [ { "mimeType": "audio/wav", "url": "@{variables('VoicemailLink')})" } ] It was working last week, and I didn't change anything. I've put a quick workaround in to put a hyperlink to the voicemail in the text of the adaptive card, and that seems fine so the variable link is working and the saved audio file is working, it's just not embedding the file nicely into the card. It opens up in a browser window instead. Has there been an update to adaptive cards or Teams that might break this sort of thing? Thanks for your help.
What if post adaptive card and wait for a response timeout
Hi Team, Scenario: Post the adaptive card to the team chat. If the user doesn't respond after 2 hours, the adaptive card should be updated as "Expired"with a new design on the same conversation. In an attempt to comply with this, I used a "Post adaptive card in char and wait for response." Challenges: What would happen if I posted an adaptable card and waited for a response timeout? I wouldn't get a response. An error is being thrown. Expectations include waiting for a response after receiving an adapted card. In any case, your card has already produced a message ID and posted. This action should to return a Message Id in the event that a timeout occurs. Would you kindly respond if you have discovered a solution?
In/Out Board on Teams
We have been requested to create a departmental automated In/Out Board listing all staff, capturing their presence from Outlook/Teams and displaying onto a SharePoint 2013 (on premise versus O365) page. To keep it simple we would like to display name and status (based upon presence). If we could capture information like "in a meeting" or "Busy" or "Away" or "On a call" that would be even better. I have already posted on the MS Tech Community and Earlier on Teams and was advised to check in here. Any advice or guidance would be most helpful...
