Additional information

Master the Teams Toolkit for Visual Studio Code with our Build collaborative apps for Microsoft Teams (MS-4001) course

Developing applications for Microsoft Teams starts efficiently with the Teams Toolkit for Visual Studio Code. This suite of tools is essential for installing, configuring, and starting application creation. It is designed to provide a seamless experience for developers looking to leverage the full potential of Microsoft Teams.

Advanced Development with Bots for Teams

Bots for Microsoft Teams transform user interaction, making exchanges more intuitive. Learning the basics of bots and exploring tools dedicated to the development of these virtual assistants are crucial skills. Creating a bot with the Teams Toolkit, integrating Adaptive Cards, and sending proactive messages are key steps to enriching Teams applications.

Message Extensions and Copilot for Microsoft 365

Message extensions significantly enhance the functionality of Teams applications. Defining and implementing search and action commands allows the integration of personalized data and the execution of specific tasks directly from chat. Integrating Microsoft Copilot into these extensions adds an additional dimension, enriching the user experience with artificial intelligence capabilities.

Creating and Integrating Tabs in Teams

Integrating custom tabs in Teams opens a wide range of possibilities for displaying web applications and services directly within the Teams interface. Knowledge of tab scenarios and associated development techniques is essential for creating functional and interactive tabs.

Connectivity and Interactivity with Webhooks

Webhooks play a pivotal role in connecting external web services to Teams, facilitating bidirectional communication and workflow automation. The ability to create and manage incoming and outgoing webhooks is fundamental for integrating personalized notifications and automated responses in Teams. This MS-4001 course will enable you to learn to manage these webhooks.

Access to Microsoft 365 Data with Microsoft Graph

Using Microsoft Graph to access and manipulate Microsoft 365 data is an advanced skill for Teams application developers. Managing authentication, configuring permissions, and secure access to user information are key elements for creating enriched and contextual applications.

Deployment on Azure and Publishing Your Application

The process of deploying a Teams application on Azure marks the final step in development. Preparing Azure resources and publishing the application are essential skills to make the developed solutions accessible and usable by a broad audience.
