Overview

The Get Chats activity uses the Microsoft Graph ListChats API to retrieve all the chats the user is a member of (user determined by the connection established via the Microsoft Teams Scope activity).

After performing the search, the activity outputs the chat properties in a Chat[] object that you can use as input variables in subsequent activities (e.g., Chat.Id in Get Messages, Send Message, etc.).

How it works

The following steps and message sequence diagram is an example of how the activity works from design time (i.e., the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.

1. Complete the Setup steps.
2. Add the Microsoft Teams Scope activity to your project.
3. Add the Get Chats activity inside the Microsoft Teams Scope activity.
4. Create and enter a Chat[] variable for your Output property.
5. Run the activity.
   • Your input property values are sent to the ListChats API.
   • The API returns the Chat[] value to your output property variable.
