# @copilotkit/channels-teams
|
|
|
|
The **Microsoft Teams platform adapter** for [`@copilotkit/channels`](../channels). It's a
|
|
concrete `PlatformAdapter` that plugs Teams into the platform-agnostic bot
|
|
engine, exactly like [`@copilotkit/channels-slack`](../channels-slack) does for Slack. You
|
|
write your bot once with `createBot` (handlers, JSX, tools, context) and run it
|
|
on Teams by adding this adapter.
|
|
|
|
It is built on the **Microsoft 365 Agents SDK** (`@microsoft/agents-hosting`),
|
|
the successor to the Bot Framework SDK.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
pnpm add @copilotkit/channels @copilotkit/channels-ui @copilotkit/channels-teams
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
import { createBot } from "@copilotkit/channels";
|
|
import { teams } from "@copilotkit/channels-teams";
|
|
|
|
const bot = createBot({
|
|
adapters: [teams({ port: 3978 })],
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
bot.onMessage(({ thread, message }) => thread.post(`Echo: ${message.text}`));
|
|
|
|
await bot.start(); // POST /api/messages now listening on :3978
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then point the **Microsoft 365 Agents Playground** at it. No Microsoft
|
|
credentials are required for local development:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npx @microsoft/m365agentsplayground # opens http://localhost:56150
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The Playground connects to `http://127.0.0.1:3978/api/messages` and gives you a
|
|
Teams-like chat UI to test against. See [`examples/teams`](../../examples/teams)
|
|
for a complete, runnable echo bot, and the
|
|
[Microsoft Teams guide](../../showcase/shell-docs/src/content/docs/frontends/teams.mdx)
|
|
for sideloading into real Teams via Azure Bot Service.
|
|
|
|
## How it maps onto the `PlatformAdapter` contract
|
|
|
|
- **Ingress:** a `CloudAdapter` receives Teams activities at
|
|
`POST /api/messages` (stood up by an Express server). Each `message` activity
|
|
is normalized into `sink.onTurn(...)`. Uploaded files ride along as
|
|
attachments: `buildFileContentParts` downloads them (a `file.download.info`
|
|
URL, or a `data:`/https media URL) and hands the agent multimodal content
|
|
parts — CSV/JSON/text as decoded text, images and PDFs as binary. That's what
|
|
makes "upload a CSV → get a chart" work. Note Teams only delivers uploaded
|
|
files to a bot in **1:1 (personal) chat** (requires `supportsFiles: true` in
|
|
the app manifest); in a channel or group chat Teams does NOT send the file to
|
|
the bot at all, so chart-from-data there means pasting the data inline.
|
|
- **Egress:** structured/interactive UI is rendered to an **Adaptive Card**
|
|
(1.5) and sent as an attachment; a reply that collapses to plain text is sent
|
|
as a normal text activity (a bare `Echo: hi` shouldn't be a card). Both go out
|
|
on the live `TurnContext` _within the originating turn_. The engine awaits the
|
|
whole turn handler, so a reply (or a full `runAgent()` loop) completes before
|
|
the HTTP response closes. (Out-of-turn / proactive sends fall back to
|
|
`CloudAdapter.continueConversation` via the captured conversation reference.)
|
|
- **Files out:** `postFile` posts a file to the conversation. An image (e.g. a
|
|
rendered chart PNG) is sent as an inline attachment via a `data:` URI, so it
|
|
renders directly in the thread — the bot-slack `postFile` parallel.
|
|
- **Streaming:** text replies stream **by message edit** (Teams' baseline
|
|
model). It posts the first content, then `updateActivity` edits the same
|
|
message as the buffer grows (throttled and serialised; see
|
|
`TeamsMessageStream`), after a typing indicator. Native token streaming is a
|
|
later enhancement.
|
|
- **Agent runs:** `createRunRenderer` bridges AG-UI events to Teams. Each text
|
|
message is streamed by edit, and tool calls plus interrupts are captured for
|
|
the run loop.
|
|
- **History:** Teams does not hand the bot a queryable transcript, so an
|
|
in-memory `TeamsConversationStore` keeps one per conversation and seeds each
|
|
agent run with it. Swap in a durable `ConversationStore` for production.
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
teams({
|
|
port: 3978, // POST /api/messages port (Playground default)
|
|
clientId, // Microsoft app id; omit for anonymous local dev
|
|
clientSecret, // omit for anonymous local dev
|
|
tenantId, // omit for multi-tenant / anonymous
|
|
interruptEventNames, // custom-event names treated as agent interrupts
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Credentials also resolve from the `clientId` / `clientSecret` / `tenantId`
|
|
environment variables (the names the M365 Agents SDK reads).
|
|
|
|
## Status & roadmap
|
|
|
|
Implemented: message ingress; **Adaptive Card rendering** of the bot-ui
|
|
vocabulary (`<Header>`, `<Section>`/`<Markdown>`, `<Fields>`, `<Table>`,
|
|
`<Image>`, `<Actions>`/`<Button>`, `<Select>`, `<Input>`, `<Context>`) with a
|
|
plain-text path for bare replies and a Markdown table fallback; **streamed-by-
|
|
edit** text replies with a typing indicator; `runAgent` tool-call / interrupt
|
|
capture; **card-action round-trip + HITL** (below); conversation history;
|
|
`update` / `delete`. Verified in the M365 Agents Playground.
|
|
|
|
**Card-action round-trip + HITL.** Adaptive Card `Action.Submit` clicks arrive
|
|
as Message activities carrying the action `data` in `activity.value`;
|
|
`decodeInteraction` parses our opaque `ckActionId` + button value and routes them
|
|
to `sink.onInteraction`, which resolves the engine's `awaitChoice` waiter and
|
|
runs the button's `onClick` (e.g. to edit the picker in place). A tool handler
|
|
that calls `await thread.awaitChoice(<Card/>)` therefore gates the agent on a
|
|
human decision; see `examples/teams` for an approve/reject demo. Ingress and
|
|
interaction decoding derive the conversation key from one shared helper
|
|
(`conversationKeyOf`) so the waiter always resolves.
|
|
|
|
**Async turn handoff.** When credentialed, ingress acks the inbound turn
|
|
immediately and runs the agent on a detached `continueConversation` context, so
|
|
an `awaitChoice` suspend can outlive the Teams turn window (approval minutes
|
|
later). In the anonymous local Playground (where `continueConversation` has no
|
|
app id) the run uses the inbound turn context, which localhost holds open across
|
|
the suspend. Waiters are in-memory (v1), so they don't survive a process restart.
|
|
|
|
Planned follow-ups (the architecture leaves room for each):
|
|
|
|
- **Native token streaming:** token-by-token replies via the SDK's
|
|
`StreamingResponse` (`queueInformativeUpdate` / `queueTextChunk` / `endStream`),
|
|
vs. the current post-then-edit model.
|
|
- **Durable HITL waiters:** persist pending `awaitChoice` state so approvals
|
|
survive a restart (today they're in-memory).
|
|
- **User lookup** (Microsoft Graph) and **arbitrary non-image file upload** via
|
|
the Teams/Graph file-consent flow (today `postFile` handles inline images).
