Hi
I am developing an application that is interacting with Skype using Microsoft.Lync.Model library to get notifications of calls and messages and to make calls. Now that Microsoft Teams is replacing Skype, I need an API or library to interact with the Teams Client application in the same way.
As far as I can see this is not available.

Is there a way to use the Microsoft Graph rest API to do this?
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/communications-api-overview?view=graph-rest-1.0&preserve-view=true

I need to call and answer the call as the user logged in on the Teams Client application.

    Hi
    As I can see from the links you provided is that a bot can make a call and so on, but I want the Teams client application to call. This is what people are trying to get an answer to in the link I referred to.
