Hello, me and my college groupmates are trying to create a bot that automatically records attendance in microsoft teams. We ran into a wall where in order to upload even a test bot, it needs to be connected to azure, but then, it requires a paid system (after the usual free trial). Is there any way to bypass this? If none, is there a way for us to connect a third party system to microsoft teams?

    In order to create and upload a bot you need to connect to azure and there is no bypass for it.
