Microsoft Teams

Lobu’s Microsoft Teams adapter supports direct chats, channel mentions, and interactive workflows. Under the hood, Lobu uses the Chat SDK Teams adapter with Azure Bot Framework.

Setup

1. Register a bot in the Azure Portal under Azure Bot (or Bot Framework Registration).
2. Note the App ID, App Password (client secret), and Tenant ID.
3. In the Azure Bot’s Channels section, enable the Microsoft Teams channel.
4. Use Agents → Connections in the web app to add Microsoft Teams, or declare a teams connection in lobu.config.ts.

Configuration

Field	Required	Type	Description
appId	No	string	Microsoft App ID.
appPassword	No	string	Microsoft App Password.
appTenantId	No	string	Microsoft App Tenant ID.
appType	No	MultiTenant | SingleTenant	Microsoft App Type.
userName	No	string	Override bot username.

Authentication

The adapter supports two authentication modes:

• Password auth (default) — provide appPassword directly. Simplest setup.
• Managed Identity (MSI) — when appPassword is omitted, the adapter uses Azure Managed Identity. Useful for Azure-hosted deployments.

Features

• Direct messages and channel @mentions trigger the agent.
• Streaming responses with throttled message edits.
• Adaptive Cards for interactive elements (permission grants, user prompts, configuration).
• Access control — restrict which users or groups can interact.
• Multi-tenant and single-tenant deployment modes.

Typical Use Cases

• Internal assistant for engineering, HR, or IT teams.
• Workflow automation triggered by team conversations.
• Knowledge base bot accessible from Teams channels.
