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-chat",
  name: "New Chat",
  description: "Emit new event when a new chat is created",
  version: "0.0.9",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...base.methods,
    async getResources(lastCreated) {
      return this.getNewPaginatedResources(
        this.microsoftTeams.listChats,
        {},
        lastCreated,
      );
    },
    generateMeta(chat) {
      return {
        id: chat.id,
        summary: chat.topic ?? `Chat ID ${chat.id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(chat.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.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Microsoft Teams	`microsoftTeams`	`app`	This component uses the Microsoft Teams app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Polling interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the YouTube API on this schedule

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.

Get Current Message on Vestaboard

Description:Retrieves the current message. [See the docs](https://docs.vestaboard.com/read-write)

Version:0.0.1

Key:vestaboard-get-current-message

View on GitHub

Vestaboard Overview#

The Vestaboard API allows you to control a networked, mechanical split-flap display, enabling you to automate the content it shows. By integrating with Pipedream, you can develop serverless workflows that respond to various triggers (like incoming webhooks, emails, or scheduled timers) and push updates to your Vestaboard. You can dynamically display information such as meeting reminders, real-time performance metrics, or custom messages based on events from other apps and services.

Action Code#

import vestaboard from "../../vestaboard.app.mjs";

export default {
  key: "vestaboard-get-current-message",
  name: "Get Current Message",
  description: "Retrieves the current message. [See the docs](https://docs.vestaboard.com/read-write)",
  version: "0.0.1",
  type: "action",
  props: {
    vestaboard,
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const response = await this.vestaboard.getCurrentMessage({
      $,
    });

    if (response) {
      $.export("$summary", "Successfully retrieved current message.");
    }

    return response;
  },
};

Action Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Vestaboard	`vestaboard`	`app`	This component uses the Vestaboard app.

Action Authentication#

Vestaboard uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Vestaboard account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Vestaboard APIs in both code and no-code steps.

To retrieve your API keys,

Navigate to your Vestaboard account and sign in
Go to “API” > “Installables”
On one of your Installables, click on “DETAILS”
Go to “API Credentials”
Navigate to "API" > "Read/Write API"
Click "Enabled" and copy your Read/Write API Key.
