Interaction with app

Prerequisites

• To test locally, NodeJS must be installed on your development machine (version 16.14.2 or higher)

• You'll need Ngrok installed on your development machine. Make sure you've downloaded and installed Ngrok on your local machine. ngrok will tunnel requests from the Internet to your local computer and terminate the SSL connection from Teams.

Setup

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. Setup for Bot

• In Azure portal, create AAD app registraion and it will generate MicrosoftAppId and MicrosoftAppPassword for you.

• In Azure portal, create a Azure Bot resource.

• 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 in Azure portal, you will create an App ID and App password - make sure you keep these for later.

2. Setup NGROK
   Run ngrok - point to port 3978

   ngrok http -host-header=rewrite 3978

3. Setup for code

• Clone the repository

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

• In the folder where repository is cloned navigate to samples/bot-people-picker-adaptive-card/nodejs

• Install node modules

  Inside node js folder, open your local terminal and run the below command to install node modules. You can do the same in Visual Studio code terminal by opening the project in Visual Studio code.

  npm install

• Open the .env configuration file in your project folder (or in Visual Studio Code) and update the MicrosoftAppId and MicrosoftAppPassword with the values generated while doing AAD app registration including Secret creation.(ClientSecret is referred to as the "client secret" generated from your AAD app registrationin.

• Run your app

  npm start

4. Setup Manifest for Teams

   • Edit the manifest.json contained in the appPackage/ folder to replace with your MicrosoftAppId (that was created in step 1 and is the same value of MicrosoftAppId in .env file) 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).
   • Zip up the contents of the appPackage/ folder to create a manifest.zip
   • Upload the manifest.zip to Teams (in the left-bottom Apps view, click "Upload a custom app")
