Microsoft 365 & Power Platform Community Call - 28th of February, 2023

Call summary

Welcome to the weekly call focused on capabilities of the Microsoft 365 platform. In this call, we highlight recently announced and key existing developer resources, news, community events and three demos.

New this week

Demos

  • Dynamically Create a Microsoft Teams Meeting using Microsoft Graph – leverage Microsoft Graph and Azure functions to automate the creation of a Teams meeting link rather than going to the calendar, creating an invite, copying/pasting link for ACS, etc. Ideal for customers using ACS in a custom app while customer service agent is using Teams – both parties use same URL to join meeting. Step through Microsoft Graph client (with authentication) setup and meeting creation code. Module 4 in this series.
  • Teams Toolkit Learn Path - Build a bot using Teams Toolkit for Visual Studio Code – step through prerequisites to create a bot for Teams and understand functions of a proactive messaging (reminder) bot in your workflow. Bot architectural components include web server, Azure Bot Service, Azure AD app registration, HTTP tunnel, and Microsoft Teams app package. In Visual Studio Code, create a Notification bot using an HTTP trigger running on Azure Functions using JavaScript. On local machine, tour provisioned capabilities. Module 2 in a 5-part series.
  • Remotely debug your Microsoft Teams apps from any device using Vorlon.js – develop and remotely debug (and make live updates) apps on Android or iPhone from a Windows PC using the Vorlon.js. Requires adding only a script to Teams web app running on these surfaces. The script monitors calls to console log that’s connected to PC via WiFi. See functionality in demo today. What can we build for you tomorrow? Envision a VS Code extension for Teams Toolkit.
