Messaging Extension (V3 SDK) Settings / Configuration
I've created a messaging extension based on the sample app provided on the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/tutorials/get-started-dotnet-app-studio guide for Teams in C#. The extension queries my company's product for data and returns it in a list, from which the user can select a card to insert into the conversation, which contains a link to view that data on our service. This works fine pointing at one of our test sites. However, my customers have their own instances of the product, so they need to be able to configure the extension to point at their own instance. I'm following the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/resources/messaging-extension-v3/search-extensions for search based messaging extensions which says I should be able to do this by adding canUpdateConfiguration to my manifest. This brings up a greyed out settings option when right-clicking the extension in Teams. However it also says I need to use onQuerySettingsUrl and onSettingsUpdate event handlers, but is incredibly vague, and I cannot find further documentation or help on how to actually write/implement either of these things anywhere. It seems like such a simple task and we're so close to having this basic extension finished that it's getting quite frustrating. Can anyone offer any advice on this? Thanks in advance.
Search Messaging Extension / Images with OAuth authentication / SVG support / DATE/TIME-formatting
Hello! I am implementing a Teams App with a search messaging extension (manifest: composeExtensions/commands/id "search") which outputs an attachment list via builder.ThumbnailCard/builder.CardImage/builder.cardAction/... I am encountering the following problems: The image URLs seem to be unauthenticated and so far I could not find any way to access the address object to obtain the session and access e.g. OAuth access tokens assigned with the current user/session. There are no headers sent which could be used for that. As the images contain sensitive data, only users authenticated against our service are able to request them via the public service. I can use data URIs as a workaround, but they cannot be updated. SVG support (content-type: image/svg+xml) for images in the attachment list, to be able to provide scale independent icons. Support for "{{DATE}}" and "{{TIME}}" formatting in the text attribute is missing (as stated in the docs). Is there any way to correctly display a date/time in the user's time zone and the user's formatting preferences there? Thank you and Regards, Dominik
