How to get the Teams User Id for Teams Interop Using Azure Communication Services

How to get the Teams User Id for Teams Interop Using Azure Communication Services

Sarphu Rongpi 6

I am trying to join a Teams Call using Microsoft Teams Interop with an authorized Microsoft OAuth User.
I've manage to retrieve the Azure Communication Services access token following this post. However, I am not able to retrieve an Azure Communication Services User Id.

I am testing the credentials on the following page.

@Ebraheem Al-Muneyeer (MSFT) Thank you for your for the resources however, I am still stuck with the in link number 2 which we have discuss earlier

I have generated the exchanged communication services accessToken with the teams access token, However I am still stuck with the userId

The 3rd link which you've shared also needs a userId of the following format
8:acs:resourceId_userId

I tried different combination for userId, hoping that might work
e.g if resourceId of Azure Communication Services is RID123 and skypeId is orgid:abc123
8:acs:RID123_orgid:abc123
8:acs:RID123_abc123
orgid:abc123
abc123

Hey @Sarphu Rongpi , thank you for reaching out.

The application that you are testing Call with Chat Composite is not Teams interop and it is not designed to be used with exchanged Teams tokens.

Can you please try to run our sample application get-started-with-voice-video-calling-custom-teams-client locally?

That said, you can try the below to get the user ID but I'm not sure if it will work or not:

Copy the ACS access token you have
Decode the JWT access token with any JWT decoder. For example JWT.MS
Copy skypeID and use it as user ID.

Again, this might not work as the sample is not built to be used with exchanged tokens and your best shot will be to run the sample mentioned above locally.

@Ebraheem Al-Muneyeer (MSFT) Can you please share with me some resources to achieve the following functionality:
a teams meeting MEETING_1, is created on teams client by user A
user A has authorized Microsoft OAuth in our application (EXAMPLE_APPLICATION)
now user A should be able to start the meeting MEETING_1 in our application (EXAMPLE_APPLICATION)

@Sarphu Rongpi , sure, kindly find below:

Create Teams meeting: -
You need to use Microsoft Graph APIs to create the meeting. For more information you can check the documentation here choose-online-meeting-api

Exchange token.
I believe you already accomplish this by using this sample manage-teams-identity, right?

Code sample to join the meeting.
You can check the sample here get-started-with-voice-video-calling-custom-teams-client

@Sarphu Rongpi , you can accomplish that as following:

Generate ACS ID and access token. The simplest way for testing is to generate them in the Azure portal as mentioned here quick-create-identity

On the tab on the left side, use the exchanged access token to initialize the call agent.

On the tab on the right, use the access token that has been generated from the Azure portal during step #1 to initialize the access token.

On the tab on the left, use the user ID that has been generated during step #1, to call the user on the tab on the right.

Start the call from the tab on the left. This should start a call from the user on the left tab (With exchanged access token) to the user on the right tab (With a token generated from the Azure portal)

You can check our documentation here Generate access-tokens for more information about how to generate ACS IDs and access token programmatically.

@Ebraheem Al-Muneyeer (MSFT) I've already tried the steps you've shared recently, However that didn't work (also it doesn't fit my requirement as I want to start (not just join and wait since I've created the meeting) the meeting)

Can you please let me know regarding the following:

I've already following the following post

I am also able to get the access token

Now my question is:

Where do I use this access token since we don't get the userId.

How do I use this access token since we are not able to get the userId that works (Please check the following notes).

None of the following hit and trial userId worked (also I couldn't find any in documentation)
I tried different combination for userId, hoping that might work
e.g if resourceId of Azure Communication Services is RID123 and skypeId is orgid:abc123
8:acs:RID123_orgid:abc123
8:acs:RID123_abc123
orgid:abc123
abc123

@Sarphu Rongpi , Sorry, I might misunderstand you. If you want to join a meeting then you should be using the meeting ID, rather than the user ID.

You can still use the same sample get-started-with-voice-video-calling-custom-teams-client as a starting point, but you need to modify it to add joining the meeting functionality. You can use the following sample get-started-teams-interop as a reference.

The most important part will be the below, where you should pass the meeting link you created
