How to choose version

For .NET 5 projects (VS 2019): Choose version < 0.3.0-rc. For .NET 6 projects (VS 2022): Choose version >= 0.3.0-rc.

Using Teams User Credential in Teams Tab app

1. Add authentication options in appsettings.{Environment}.json file.

"TeamsFx": {
    "Authentication": {
        "ClientId": "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "ClientSecret": "xxx", // 'User Secrets' is a better place to store secret string.
        "OAuthAuthority": "https://login.microsoftonline.com/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
    }
}

2. Add TeamsFx to services during startup.

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    ...
    services.AddTeamsFx(Configuration.GetSection("TeamsFx"));
}

3. Add the required namespaces to the _Imports.razor file.

@using Microsoft.TeamsFx

4. Inject the registered TeamsFx services for any page that needs them.

@inject TeamsFx teamsfx
@inject TeamsUserCredential teamsUserCredential

5. Call teamsUserCredential.GetTokenAsync() to get access token or pass teamsUserCredential to other functions.

try
{
    await teamsUserCredential.GetTokenAsync(
        new TokenRequestContext(new string[] { "User.Read" }),
        new System.Threading.CancellationToken());
}
catch (ExceptionWithCode e)
{
    if (e.Code == ExceptionCode.UiRequiredError)
    {
        // show login button to let user consent
    }
    else
    {
        throw;
    }
}

Using Conversation Bot for Command and Response

1. Add your command handler class which implements the ITeamsCommandHandler interface.

   • Define your trigger patters in the TriggerPatterns property, you can use StringTrigger or RegExpTrigger.
   • Handle your command in HandleCommandAsync function, and return an ActivityCommandResponse or TextommandResponse object as the command response.

   public class SampleCommandHandler : ITeamsCommandHandler
   {
       // Define your trigger patterns
       public IEnumerable<ITriggerPattern> TriggerPatterns => new List<ITriggerPattern>
       {
           new StringTrigger("helloworld")
       };
   
       // Handle your command and send response to Teams chat
       public async Task<ICommandResponse> HandleCommandAsync(ITurnContext turnContext, CommandMessage message, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
       {
           // TODO: provide your implementation here.
           return new TextCommandResponse("This is a sample response!");
       }
   }
   

2. Initialize the command bot and register your commands in your app's startup (usually it's in Program.cs or Startup.cs)

   builder.Services.AddSingleton<SampleCommandHandler>();
   builder.Services.AddSingleton(sp =>
   {
       var options = new ConversationOptions()
       {
           // NOTE: you need to register your CloudAdapter into your service before conversation bot initialization.
           Adapter = sp.GetService<CloudAdapter>(),
           Command = new CommandOptions()
           {
               Commands = new List<ITeamsCommandHandler> { sp.GetService<SampleCommandHandler>() }
           }
       };
   
       return new ConversationBot(options);
   });
   

3. Use the conversation bot in your bot controller

   namespace SampleTeamsApp.Controllers
   {
       using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
       using Microsoft.Bot.Builder;
       using Microsoft.Bot.Builder.Integration.AspNet.Core;
       using Microsoft.TeamsFx.Conversation;
   
       [Route("api/messages")]
       [ApiController]
       public class BotController : ControllerBase
       {
           private readonly ConversationBot _conversation;
           private readonly IBot _bot;
   
           public BotController(ConversationBot conversation, IBot bot)
           {
               _conversation = conversation;
               _bot = bot;
           }
   
           [HttpPost]
           public async Task PostAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
           {
               await (_conversation.Adapter as CloudAdapter).ProcessAsync
               (
                   Request,
                   Response,
                   _bot,
                   cancellationToken
               );
           }
       }
   }
   

Using Conversation Bot for Notification

1. Initialize your own bot adapter and the ConversationBot in your app's startup (usually it's in Program.cs or Startup.cs)

   // Create the Conversation with notification feature enabled.
   builder.Services.AddSingleton(sp =>
   {
       var options = new ConversationOptions()
       {
           // NOTE: you need to register your CloudAdapter into your service before conversation bot initialization.
           Adapter = sp.GetService<CloudAdapter>(),
           Notification = new NotificationOptions
           {
               BotAppId = botAppId, // Your bot app ID
           },
       };
   
       return new ConversationBot(options);
   });
   

2. Reference the conversation bot in your bot message controller/handler to ensure it's initialized before handling any bot message

   namespace SampleTeamsApp.Controllers
   {
       using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
       using Microsoft.Bot.Builder;
       using Microsoft.Bot.Builder.Integration.AspNet.Core;
       using Microsoft.TeamsFx.Conversation;
   
       [Route("api/messages")]
       [ApiController]
       public class BotController : ControllerBase
       {
           private readonly ConversationBot _conversation;
           private readonly IBot _bot;
   
           public BotController(ConversationBot conversation, IBot bot)
           {
               _conversation = conversation;
               _bot = bot;
           }
   
           [HttpPost]
           public async Task PostAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
           {
               await (_conversation.Adapter as CloudAdapter).ProcessAsync
               (
                   Request,
                   Response,
                   _bot,
                   cancellationToken
               );
           }
       }
   }
   

3. Send notification (called by your own controller or trigger)

   public async Task NotifyAsync(ConversationBot conversation, CancellationToken cancellationToken)
   {
       var installations = await conversation.Notification.GetInstallationsAsync(cancellationToken);
       foreach (var installation in installations)
       {
           await installation.SendMessage("Hello.", cancellationToken);
   
           // Or, send adaptive card (need to build your own card object)
           // await installation.SendAdaptiveCard(cardObject, cancellationToken);
       }
   }
   

Using Conversation Bot for Adaptive Card Actions

1. Add your adaptive card action handler class which implements the IAdaptiveCardActionHandler interface.

   • Set the TriggerVerb property, the value should be the same as the verb property of the Action.Execute action.
   • Handle your action in HandleActionInvokedAsync function, and return an InvokeResponse as the action response.

   public class DoStuffActionHandler : IAdaptiveCardActionHandler
   {
       /// <summary>
       /// A global unique string associated with the `Action.Execute` action.
       /// The value should be the same as the `verb` property which you define in your adaptive card JSON.
       /// </summary>
       public string TriggerVerb => "doStuff";
   
       /// <summary>
       /// Indicate how your acrion response card is sent in the conversation.
       /// By default, the response card can only be updated for the interactor who trigger the action.
       /// </summary>
       public AdaptiveCardResponse AdaptiveCardResponse => AdaptiveCardResponse.ReplaceForInteractor;
   
   
       public async Task<InvokeResponse> HandleActionInvokedAsync(ITurnContext turnContext, object cardData, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
       {
           // Send invoke response with text message
           return InvokeResponseFactory.TextMessage("[ACK] Successfully!");
   
           /**
            * If you want to send invoke response with adaptive card, you can:
            *
            * return InvokeResponseFactory.AdaptiveCard(JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(<your-card-json>));
            */
   
           /**
            * If you want to send invoke response with error message, you can:
            *
            * return InvokeResponseFactory.ErrorResponse(InvokeResponseErrorCode.BadRequest, "The incoming request is invalid.");
            */
       }
   }
   

2. Initialize your own bot adapter and the ConversationBot in your app's startup (usually it's in Program.cs or Startup.cs)

   // create action handler instance
   builder.Services.AddSingleton<DoStuffActionHandler>();
   
   // create conversation bot with adaptive card action feature enabled.
   builder.Services.AddSingleton(sp =>
   {
       var options = new ConversationOptions()
       {
           // NOTE: you need to register your CloudAdapter into your service before conversation bot initialization.
           Adapter = sp.GetService<CloudAdapter>(),
           CardAction = new CardActionOptions()
           {
               Actions = new List<IAdaptiveCardActionHandler> { sp.GetService<DoStuffActionHandler>() }
           }
       };
   
       return new ConversationBot(options);
   });
   

3. Reference the conversation bot in your bot message controller/handler to ensure it's initialized before handling any bot message

   namespace SampleTeamsApp.Controllers
   {
       using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
       using Microsoft.Bot.Builder;
       using Microsoft.Bot.Builder.Integration.AspNet.Core;
       using Microsoft.TeamsFx.Conversation;
   
       [Route("api/messages")]
       [ApiController]
       public class BotController : ControllerBase
       {
           private readonly ConversationBot _conversation;
           private readonly IBot _bot;
   
           public BotController(ConversationBot conversation, IBot bot)
           {
               _conversation = conversation;
               _bot = bot;
           }
   
           [HttpPost]
           public async Task PostAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)
           {
               await (_conversation.Adapter as CloudAdapter).ProcessAsync
               (
                   Request,
                   Response,
                   _bot,
                   cancellationToken
               );
           }
       }
   }
   

SDK Upgrade Steps

Upgrade from 0.1.0-rc to 0.3.0 (For projects created by Visual Studio 2019 toolkit)

If there is an existing project created in VS2019, you can use the following steps to upgrade:

1. Open project in VS2022 and change project target framework to ".NET 6".

2. Upgrade dependencies: Microsoft.TeamsFx.SimpleAuth to 0.1.2, Newtonsoft.Json to 13.0.1, Microsoft.Graph to 4.12.0, Microsoft.Fast.Components.FluentUI to 1.1.0.

3. Add following lines in appsettings.{Environment}.json file after "ALLOWED_APP_IDS".

"ALLOWED_APP_IDS": "...",
"TeamsFx": {
    "Authentication": {
        "ClientId": "value copied from CLIENT_ID",
        "SimpleAuthEndpoint": "value copied from TAB_APP_ENDPOINT",
        "InitiateLoginEndpoint": "{value copied from TAB_APP_ENDPOINT}/auth-start.html"
    }
}

4. Add following lines in Startup.cs.

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    ...
    services.AddTeamsFx(Configuration.GetSection("TeamsFx"));
}

and remove following 2 lines.

services.AddScoped<TeamsFx>();
services.AddScoped<TeamsUserCredential>();

5. Remove following codes in Welcome.razor.

var clientId = Configuration.GetValue<string>("CLIENT_ID");
var endpoint = MyNavigationManager.BaseUri;

await teamsfx.SetLogLevelAsync(LogLevel.Verbose);
await teamsfx.SetLogFunctionAsync(printLog);

AuthenticationConfiguration authentication = new AuthenticationConfiguration(clientId: clientId, simpleAuthEndpoint: endpoint, initiateLoginEndpoint: endpoint + "auth-start.html");
Configuration configuration = new Configuration(authentication);
await teamsfx.LoadConfigurationAsync(configuration);
...
private void printLog(LogLevel level, string message)
{
    Console.WriteLine(message);
}

Upgrade from 0.3.0-rc to 0.4.0-rc (For projects created by Visual Studio 2022 17.1 Preview toolkit)

If there is an existing project created in VS2022 17.1 Preview, you can use the following steps to upgrade:

• In appsettings.{Environment}.json file:

1. Add OAuthAuthority under TeamsFx:Authentication and copy the value from OAUTH_AUTHORITY.
2. Remove the line "SimpleAuthEndpoint": "https://localhost:port/".
3. Remove lines of configuration starting with "CLIENT_ID", "IDENTIFIER_URI", "TAB_APP_ENDPOINT", "OAUTH_AUTHORITY", "AAD_METADATA_ADDRESS", "ALLOWED_APP_IDS".
4. Remove the Nuget dependency package "Microsoft.TeamsFx.SimpleAuth".

• In Solution Explorer:

1. Right click project file and choose "Manage User Secrets".
2. Change key name "CLIENT_SECRET" to "TeamsFx:Authentication:ClientSecret".

Upgrade from 1.1.0 to 1.2.0 (Update projects to use TeamsJS V.2.0)

Teams Toolkit provides users with a template TeamsJSBlazorInterop.js, which consists of multiple commonly used Teams JS SDK API. Users can add more APIs if needed. As suggested, even if you intend your app to only run in Teams (and not Office and Outlook), best practice is to start referencing the latest TeamsJS (v.2.0 or later) as soon as convenient, in order to benefit from the latest improvements, new features, and support (even for Teams-only apps).

Starting from TeamsFx .NET SDK 1.2.0, TeamsJS V2 are referenced. Though previously scaffolded projects still work with TeamsFx .NET SDK 1.2.0, we suggest you replace the TeamsJSBlazorInterop.js under ./wwwroot/js with the latest one from here. Two APIs in the file are updated with new function name to align with renamed TeamsJS APIs. initializeWithContext() is removed.

For more APIs, please visit the TeamsJS documentation to learn more.

Configure Logging

ILogger is used to print logs. You can configure logging in appsettings.{Environment}.json. Visit the ASP.NET documentation to learn more

Bot

Will be supported in the future.
