Goal

  • Receive message from Microsoft Teams (Incoming WebHook)

  • Send message to Microsoft Teams Channel(Outgoing WebHook)

Create Incoming WebHook in Ministry.Chat

Note: I would advise to create New Team so not all members in your organisation have access to this Integration

  1. Create Incoming Webhook with Default parameters:

    • Go to Integrations --> Create New integration --> Select Incoming WebHook

    • Assign Name

    • Assign Post to Channel (This will be the Channel where you want to recieve msg from Teams)

    • Assign Post as (Create Bot user and add bot the above mentioned Channel)

    • Copy and paste below script in Script section.

class Script {
    process_incoming_request({ request }) {
        // UNCOMMENT THE BELOW LINE TO DEBUG IF NEEDED.
        // console.log(request.content);
        if ('edited_message' in request.content) {
            request.content = request.content;
        }
        let from = request.content.from;
        let who = from.name;
        let icon_url = '/avatar/' + from.name + '.jpg'
        let body = request.content.text.slice(16);

        if(!body) {
          if(request.content.hasOwnProperty("sticker") && request.content.sticker.emoji) {
            // It's a sticker
            body = request.content.sticker.emoji
        } else {
           return {}
          }
        }

        return {
            content: {
                username: who,
                icon_url: icon_url,
                text: body
            }
        };
    }
}
  1. Save and then open your Incoming WebHook You should be able to see Webhook URL just copy that, We will need that during Creating Outgoing WebHook in MS Teams.
