Teams Search Auth Config Bot

Bot Framework v4 sample for Teams expands the 50.teams-messaging-extensions-search sample to include a configuration page and Bot Service authentication.

This bot has been created using Bot Framework, it shows how to use a Messaging Extension configuration page, as well as how to sign in from a search Messaging Extension.

Prerequisites

  • Microsoft Teams is installed and you have an account
  • NodeJS
  • ngrok or equivalent tunnelling solution

To try this sample

Note these instructions are for running the sample on your local machine, the tunnelling solution is required because the Teams service needs to call into the bot.

  1. Clone the repository

    git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/botbuilder-samples.git

  2. In a terminal, navigate to samples/javascript_nodejs/52.teams-messaging-extensions-search-auth-config

  3. Install modules

    npm install

  4. Run ngrok - point to port 3978

    ngrok http --host-header=rewrite 3978

  5. Create Bot Framework registration resource in Azure

  6. Update the .env configuration for the bot to use the Microsoft App Id and App Password from the Bot Framework registration. (Note the App Password is referred to as the "client secret" in the azure portal and you can always create a new client secret anytime.)

  7. This step is specific to Teams.

    • Edit the manifest.json contained in the teamsAppManifest folder to replace your Microsoft App Id (that was created when you registered your bot earlier) everywhere you see the place holder string <<YOUR-MICROSOFT-APP-ID>> (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json)
    • Zip up the contents of the teamsAppManifest folder to create a manifest.zip
    • Upload the manifest.zip to Teams (in the Apps view click "Upload a custom app")

  8. Run your bot at the command line:

    npm start

Interacting with the bot in Teams

Once the Messaging Extension is installed, click the icon for Config Auth Search in the Compose Box's Messaging Extension menu to display the search window. Right click to choose Settings and view the Config page.

Deploy the bot to Azure
