Join a team using QR code sample

This sample demos a feature where user can join a team using QR code containing the team's id.

Interaction with app

Prerequisites

• .NET Core SDK version 6.0

  determine dotnet version

  dotnet --version

• Ngrok (For local environment testing) Latest (any other tunneling software can also be used)

• Teams Microsoft Teams is installed and you have an account

Setup

1. Register a new application in the Azure Active Directory – App Registrations portal.

• Navigate to API Permissions, and make sure to add the follow permissions:
• Select Add a permission
• Select Microsoft Graph -> Delegated permissions.
  • User.Read (enabled by default)
  • Directory.AccessAsUser.All
  • TeamMember.ReadWrite.All
  • Click on Add permissions.

2. Setup for Bot

   • Also, register a bot with Azure Bot Service, following the instructions here.
   • Ensure that you've enabled the Teams Channel
   • While registering the bot, use https://<your_ngrok_url>/api/messages as the messaging endpoint.

   NOTE: When you create your app registration, you will create an App ID and App password - make sure you keep these for later.

-In the Azure Portal, navigate back to the Azure Bot resource created (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/bots/how-to/authentication/add-authentication?tabs=dotnet%2Cdotnet-sample#azure-ad-v2) -Switch to the "Settings" blade and click "Add Setting" under the OAuth Connection Settings section

• Enter a name for your new Connection setting.
  • In the Service Provider dropdown, select Azure Active Directory V2
  • Enter in the client id and client secret obtained in step 1 and 1
  • For the Token Exchange URL use the Application ID URL obtained in step 1
  • Specify "common" as the Tenant ID
  • Add all the scopes configured when specifying permissions to downstream APIs in step 1
  • Click "Save"

3. Setup NGROK

   • Run ngrok - point to port 3978

   # ngrok http -host-header=rewrite 3978

4. Setup for code

• Clone the repository

  git clone https://github.com/OfficeDev/Microsoft-Teams-Samples.git

• Modify the /appsettings.json and fill in the following details:

• {{ MicrosoftAppId }} - Generated from Step 1 is the application app id

• {{ MicrosoftAppPassword }} - Generated from Step 1, also referred to as Client secret

• {{ ConnectionName }} - Generated from Step 2, is the name that we provide while adding OAuth connection setting in Azure Bot resource. Please follow Add authentication to bot to configure the connection.

• {{ ApplicationBaseUrl }} - Your application's base url. E.g. https://12345.ngrok.io if you are using ngrok.

• In a terminal, navigate to JoinTeamByQR

```bash
# change into project folder
cd # JoinTeamByQR
```

• Run the bot from a terminal or from Visual Studio, choose option A or B.

• From a terminal

  # run the bot
  dotnet run

• Or from Visual Studio

• Launch Visual Studio

• File -> Open -> Project/Solution

• Navigate to samples/bot-join-team-using-qr-code/csharp folder

• Select JoinTeamByQR.csproj file

• Press F5 to run the project

5. Setup Manifest for Teams

• This step is specific to Teams.

  • Edit the manifest.json contained in the ./AppManifest folder to replace your Microsoft App Id (that was created when you registered your app registration earlier) everywhere you see the place holder string {{Microsoft-App-Id}} (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json)
  • Edit the manifest.json for validDomains and replace {{domain-name}} with base Url of your domain. E.g. if you are using ngrok it would be https://1234.ngrok.io then your domain-name will be 1234.ngrok.io.
  • Edit the manifest.json for webApplicationInfo resource "api://botid-{{MicrosoftAppId}}" with base Url of your domain. E.g. if you are using ngrok it would be https://1234.ngrok.io then your domain-name will be "api://botid-{{MicrosoftAppId}}".
  • Zip up the contents of the AppManifest folder to create a manifest.zip (Make sure that zip file does not contains any subfolder otherwise you will get error while uploading your .zip package)

• Upload the manifest.zip to Teams (in the Apps view click "Upload a custom app")

  • Go to Microsoft Teams. From the lower left corner, select Apps
  • From the lower left corner, choose Upload a custom App
  • Go to your project directory, the ./AppManifest folder, select the zip folder, and choose Open.
  • Select Add in the pop-up dialog box. Your app is uploaded to Teams.
