Add Teams

Workflow

  1. Check Memory Bank → 2. Add Connector → 3. Configure → 4. Build → 5. Update Memory Bank

Step 1: Check Memory Bank

Check for memory-bank.md per shared-instructions.md.

Step 2: Add Connector

First, find the connection ID (see connector-reference.md):

Run the /list-connections skill. Find the Teams connection in the output. If none exists, direct the user to create one using the environment-specific Connections URL — construct it from the active environment ID in context (from power.config.json or a prior step): https://make.powerapps.com/environments/<environment-id>/connections+ New connection → search for the connector → Create.

pa app add data-source --connector teams -c <connection-id>

Step 3: Configure

Ask the user what Teams operations they need (send message, post to channel, etc.).

PostMessageToConversation -- sends a chat message via Flow bot:

await TeamsService.PostMessageToConversation({
  "Post as": "Flow bot",
  "Post in": "Chat with Flow bot",
  "Post message request": {
    recipient: "<recipient-upn-or-id>", // UPN or Entra object ID
    messageBody: "<p>HTML message</p>", // HTML format
    isAlert: false,
    feedbackLoopEnabled: false
  }
});

Use Grep to find specific methods in src/generated/services/TeamsService.ts (generated files can be very large -- see connector-reference.md).

Step 4: Build

npm run build

Fix TypeScript errors before proceeding. Do NOT deploy yet.

Step 5: Update Memory Bank

Update memory-bank.md with: connector added, configured operations, build status.
