Recruitment App Sample: Manifest

Prerequisites

• .NET Core SDK version 6.0

  # determine dotnet version
  dotnet --version

• dev tunnel or ngrok latest version or equivalent tunnelling solution

• Teams Microsoft Teams is installed and you have an account

Setup

1.Register a new application in the Microsoft Entra ID – App Registrations portal. Fill out name and select third option for supported account type and click "Register".

• Copy and paste the App Id and Tenant ID somewhere safe. You will need it in a future step.

• Create Client Secret.

• Navigate to the "Certificates & secrets" blade and add a client secret by clicking "New Client Secret".

• Copy and paste the secret somewhere safe. You will need it in a future step.

2. Setup for Bot

   • Also, register a bot with Azure Bot Service, following the instructions here.

• Ensure that you've enabled the Teams Channel

• While registering the bot, use https://<your_tunnel_domain>/api/messages as the messaging endpoint.

  NOTE: When you create your app registration, you will create an App ID and App password - make sure you keep these for later.

3. Create a Azure Storage account(This is needed to store/retrieve data that's used in the app) Create storage account

   This step will create a storage account. You will require storage account name and keys in next steps.

   Please follow View account keys to see the keys info.

4. Setup NGROK

• Run ngrok - point to port 3978

  ngrok http 3978 --host-header="localhost:3978"

  Alternatively, you can also use the dev tunnels. Please follow Create and host a dev tunnel and host the tunnel with anonymous user access command as shown below:

  devtunnel host -p 3978 --allow-anonymous

5. Setup for code

• Clone the repository

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

• Modify the /appsettings.json and fill in the following details:

  • {{MicrosoftAppId}} - Generated from Step 1 while doing Microsoft Entra ID app registration in Azure portal.
  • {{ MicrosoftAppPassword}} - Generated from Step 1, also referred to as Client secret
  • {{ StorageConnectionString }} - Generated from Step 3,Create a Azure Storage accoun

• Run the app from a terminal or from Visual Studio, choose option A or B.

  # run the app
  dotnet run

  B) Or from Visual Studio

  • Launch Visual Studio
  • File -> Open -> Project/Solution
  • Navigate to MeetingApp folder
  • Select MeetingApp.csproj file
  • Press F5 to run the project

6. Setup Manifest for Teams

• This step is specific to Teams.

  • Edit the manifest.json contained in the ./AppManifest folder to replace your Microsoft App Id (that was created when you registered your app registration earlier) everywhere you see the place holder string <<APP-ID>> (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json)
  • Edit the manifest.json for <<BASE-URL>> and replace <<BASE-URL>> with base Url of your domain. E.g. if you are using ngrok it would be https://1234.ngrok-free.app then your domain-name will be 1234.ngrok-free.app and if you are using dev tunnels then your domain will be like: 12345.devtunnels.ms.
  • Zip up the contents of the AppManifest folder to create a manifest.zip (Make sure that zip file does not contains any subfolder otherwise you will get error while uploading your .zip package)

• 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 ./AppManifest folder, select the zip folder, and choose Open.
  • Select Add in the pop-up dialog box. Your app is uploaded to Teams.

Note: If you are facing any issue in your app, please uncomment this line and put your debugger for local debug.
