How to use Graph API for integrating with MS Teams

kirtish_trivedi — Mon, 21 Sep 2020 16:09:00 GMT

I have seen several post saying to ingrate MS Teams with Blueprism, we can use Graph API but I did not find any steps for the same.

Could someone please guide steps for the same.
I have a requirement to send teams notifications based on the names/Id received on excel. Please assist.

I tried spyping Teams application using AA mode but it stops working after we terminate MS teams APP and when I relaunch I again have to SPY elements.

Hello,

There is a suggestion in Post 4 of the community thread linked here.

Can you see if that's able to assist you?

Hello

We've just started to release some Web API service definitions for the MS Graph API. If you check the Digital Exchange you'll find implementations for Excel, OneNote, and general Users info. Team, SharePoint, and Outlook are next on the list to be implemented, but it will likely be a month or so before they are released.

In the meantime, you could implement your own integration using the MS Graph API documentation available here: Microsoft Graph API for Teams

Cheers,

No exact time frame at the moment, but I imagine we may see something posted next month.

To be clear, this will be a Web API service definition. Slightly different from a traditional VBO and it will require a minimum of Blue Prism v6.4 (first release where WebAPI service feature was introduced).

Hello @Kirtish Trivedi,

Unfortunately, it has not been released yet. It is still a work in progress as some other priorities have superseded it. I will post here once it is ready.

Hi Eric,

We have tried setting this up to test out some use cases with teams and blue prism. We are able to get an application access token but trying to call any requests with that token comes up in error with insufficient privilege. Is there something we are missing with granting access in azure? We've tried going through some of the various documentations online but not finding success. Any point in the right direction would be appreciated to be sure we set this up correctly to look at our teams.

Thanks much in advance

Hi @rlarson,

Sounds like you need to set the app permissions within your Azure Active Directory. To do that:

1) In your Azure Admin Console, go to Azure Active Directory and select App registrations

2) Click the link for your specific application in the list of Owned Applications.

3) In the menu on the left, select API permisions

4) Scroll down to the Team-related permissions and grant the ones you want/need.

Cheers,
