I have a software application that needs to send automated notification messages to individual users in Teams.
It’s the first time I’m using the GraphAPI. An app was created for me in Azure with a client id and secret.
The authentication is working fine (as application, not a delegated scenario).
I’m trying to figure out which endpoints I need to call to send the chatmessage but facing some missing links. In reverse order:
- Send chat message: requires a
chat-id - Get chat between user and teamsApp: requires an
app-installation-id- So appearently The user needs to install the app first? But this can also be done through API
- Install an app for user: requires an
app-id- I have no idea where to find this id
Am I going in the right direction with this? Do I need to go for a deligated flow? Should I be using a bot? Any pointers are very much welcome as the documentation is lacking in higher level concepts and structures. Thank you
