Microsoft Teams: How to send a Message/Card to a User from an external App without an Bot












0















we have an external ASP.NET 4.7 App (in Azure App Service), which should send Messages/Cards to one specific User in Teams (without an Bot).



I managed to send Cards to Channels via the Connector/WebHook, but cannot target an specific User.



How can i do this / which Services are needed?



please as simple as possible :-)



thank you



==========================



update: Sample Code:



Private Shared Sub SendToTeams(ChannelPath As AppSettingsKey, Card As TeamsCard)

If String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(ChannelPath) Then Return

Dim Channel = AppSettings.GetAppSetting(ChannelPath)
If String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(Channel) Then Return

Dim ChannelWebHook = "https://outlook.office.com"

Dim Client = New RestClient(ChannelWebHook)

Dim Req = New RestRequest(Method.POST) With {
.Resource = Channel,
.RequestFormat = DataFormat.Json
}

Dim JSON = Card.SaveJSON(False)

Req.AddParameter("application/json; charset=utf-8", JSON, ParameterType.RequestBody)

Dim Erg = Client.Execute(Req)

Logger.Info("Teams:", Erg.StatusCode)
End Sub


And some Helpers:



Friend Class TeamsCard
<JsonProperty(PropertyName:="@context")> Public Property context As String = "https://schema.org/extensions"
<JsonProperty(PropertyName:="@type")> Public Property type As String = "MessageCard"
Public Property themeColor As String = "ff6100"
Public Property title As String = "Title"
Public Property summary As String = "Summary"
Public Property text As String = "Text"
Public Property potentialAction As New List(Of TeamsCardAction)
End Class


Friend Class TeamsCardAction
<JsonProperty(PropertyName:="@type")> Public Property type As String = "OpenUri"
Public Property name As String = "ButtonText"
Public Property targets As New List(Of TeamsCardButtonTarget)
Public Sub New(Text As String, URI As String)
name = Text
targets.Add(New TeamsCardButtonTarget With {.uri = URI})
End Sub
End Class


Friend Class TeamsCardButtonTarget
Public Property os As String = "default"
Public Property uri As String = "https://google.com"
End Class
