People picker control in Adaptive Cards

This sample shows the feature of people picker on Adaptive Cards.

Use the bot command peoplepickercard to get the card with people picker control

• Personal scope (get all the users of organisation)

• Team or groupchat scope (get user list to current context)

On Assign button click, the bot will return the member id that we have selected.

Prerequisites

• NodeJS
• ngrok or equivalent tunnelling solution

1. Setup for Bot

In Azure portal, create a Azure Bot resource.

• Ensure that you've enabled the Teams Channel

2. Run your bot sample

1. Clone the repository

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

2. In the folder where repository is cloned navigate to samples/bot-people-picker-adaptive-card/nodejs

3. Install node modules

   Inside node js folder, 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.

   npm install

4. Run ngrok - point to port 3978

   ngrok http -host-header=rewrite 3978

5. Open the .env configuration file in your project folder (or in Visual Studio Code) and update the MicrosoftAppId and MicrosoftAppPassword with your app's base url. (Note the ClientId is the AppId created in step 1 (Setup for Bot), the ClientSecret is referred to as the "client secret" in step 1 (Setup for Bot) and you can always create a new client secret anytime.)

6. Run your app

   npm start

7. Manually update the manifest.json

   • Edit the manifest.json contained in the appPackage/ folder to replace with your MicrosoftAppId (that was created in step 1 and is the same value of MicrosoftAppId in .env file) everywhere you see the place holder string {{Microsoft-App-Id}} (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json).
   • Zip up the contents of the appPackage/ folder to create a manifest.zip
   • Upload the manifest.zip to Teams (in the left-bottom Apps view, click "Upload a custom app")
