To try this sample

  1. Create a incoming webhook. Create incoming webhooks. Keep this webhook URL handy while running the sample.

  2. Clone the repository

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

  3. Install node modules

    Inside node js folder, navigate to samples/incoming-webhoook/nodejs/api 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.

    • Repeat the same step in folder samples/incoming-webhoook/nodejs/ClientApp
    npm install

  4. We have two different solutions to run so follow below steps:

    A) In a terminal, navigate to samples/incoming-webhoook/nodejs/api

    B) In a different terminal, navigate to samples/incoming-webhoook/nodejs/ClientApp

  5. Run ngrok - point to port 3000 (pointing to ClientApp)

    # ngrok http -host-header=rewrite 3000

  6. Modify the manifest.json in the /AppPackage folder and replace the following details

    • {{Manifest-id}} with some unique GUID.
    • {{Domain Name}} with your application's base url, e.g. https://1234.ngrok.io

  7. Zip the contents of AppPackage folder into a manifest.zip, and use the manifest.zip to deploy in app store or add to Teams.

  8. Run both solutions i.e. samples/incoming-webhoook/nodejs/api and samples/incoming-webhoook/nodejs/clientapp

    npm start

  9. 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 ./AppPackage folder, select the zip folder, and choose Open.
