Details

This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger

Description:Emit new event when a new channel is created within a team
Version:0.0.10
Key:microsoft_teams-new-channel

Microsoft Teams Overview

The Microsoft Teams API on Pipedream allows you to automate tasks, streamline communication, and integrate with other services to enhance the functionality of Teams as a collaboration hub. With this API, you can send messages to channels, orchestrate complex workflows based on Teams events, and manage Teams' settings programmatically.

Trigger Code

import base from "../common/base.mjs";

export default {
  ...base,
  key: "microsoft_teams-new-channel",
  name: "New Channel",
  description: "Emit new event when a new channel is created within a team",
  version: "0.0.10",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    ...base.props,
    team: {
      propDefinition: [
        base.props.microsoftTeams,
        "team",
      ],
    },
  },
  methods: {
    ...base.methods,
    async getResources(lastCreated) {
      return this.getNewPaginatedResources(
        this.microsoftTeams.listChannels,
        {
          teamId: this.team,
        },
        lastCreated,
      );
    },
    generateMeta(channel) {
      return {
        id: channel.id,
        summary: channel.displayName,
        ts: Date.parse(channel.createdDateTime),
      };
    },
  },
};

Trigger Configuration

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.
LabelPropTypeDescription
Microsoft TeamsmicrosoftTeamsappThis component uses the Microsoft Teams app.
N/Adb$.service.dbThis component uses $.service.db to maintain state between executions.
timer$.interface.timer
TeamteamstringSelect a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication

Microsoft Teams uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Microsoft Teams account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Microsoft Teams and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Microsoft Teams API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

User.Reademailoffline_accessopenidprofileChat.ReadChat.ReadWriteChatMessage.SendChannel.ReadBasic.AllChannelMessage.Read.AllChannelMessage.SendTeam.ReadBasic.AllSchedule.Read.All

About Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams has communities, events, chats, channels, meetings, storage, tasks, and calendars in one place.

Action

Description:Chat with your models and allow them to invoke functions. Optionally, you can build and invoke workflows as functions. [See the documentation](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/function-calling)

OpenAI (ChatGPT) Overview

OpenAI provides a suite of powerful AI models through its API, enabling developers to integrate advanced natural language processing and generative capabilities into their applications. Here’s an overview of the services offered by OpenAI's API:

Use Python or Node.js code to make fully authenticated API requests with your OpenAI account:
