Microsoft Teams messaging channel

Use this guide to deploy an agent to Microsoft Teams after validating Agent chat.

Before you start

Make sure you have:

• A Microsoft 365 tenant with Teams access
• An Azure app registration for your bot
• A live agent with an AI model connected
• Access to Agents -> your agent -> Deployment

Configure Microsoft Teams in Budibase

1. Open your agent in Agents
2. Go to Deployment
3. In Messaging channels, click Manage for Microsoft Teams
4. Enter:
   • App ID (client ID)
   • Client secret (value)
   • Directory (tenant) ID (Azure AD tenant ID)
   • Idle timeout (minutes) (optional)
5. Click Save channel
6. Copy the generated Messaging endpoint URL

Configure your Teams bot endpoint

In your Azure bot configuration, set the bot messaging endpoint to the Budibase Messaging endpoint URL.

Use a single-tenant setup that matches your tenant ID.

Enable and verify

1. In Budibase Deployment, toggle Microsoft Teams to Enabled
2. Open Teams and message the bot
3. Test commands:
   • ask <message> to continue the current conversation
   • new <message> to start a new conversation

Plain text messages are treated as ask.

Troubleshooting

• Not configured in Budibase: confirm App ID, Client secret, and Tenant ID are saved.
• Teams cannot deliver messages: verify the bot messaging endpoint matches the Budibase URL exactly.
• Authentication failures from Teams: check bot credentials and tenant alignment.
• Webhook route errors: use the exact Budibase-generated endpoint URL from Deployment.
