Add Teams
Workflow
- 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.
