How to send teams message 1:1 using graph API to new user

63083710 26

i want to send teams message from my MS access VBA:

-i have created an application on Azure portal (SendMessageFromDMH)

i have logged in to office using my Microsoft user : "******@qnbalahli.com"
-i have followed the steps to get the authorization code : "https://login.microsoftonline.com/{Application Directory (tenant) ID}/oauth2/v2.0/authorize?"
-i have followed the steps to get the access_token : "https://login.microsoftonline.com/{Application Directory (tenant) ID}/oauth2/v2.0/token?"
-i have followed the steps to send chat message to existing chat : "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/chats/{chat id}/messages" --- "hello world"

-the problem that i want to send message to new user (not existing chat ) by following :
-create chat as : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/chat-post?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

"https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/chats"

-
{ "chatType": "oneOnOne",
"members": [
{
"@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.aadUserConversationMember",
"roles": ["owner"],
"@odata.bind": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users('@qnbalahli.onmicrosoft.com')" ' this for @qnbalahli.com
},
{
"@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.aadUserConversationMember",
"roles": ["owner"],
"@odata.bind": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users('******@onmicrosoft.com')" ' this for moyassinomar@Stuff .com
}
]
}
but it gives me below error :
{"error":{"code":"Unauthorized","message":"Failed to make request to Azure Active directory","innerError":{"date":"2022-02-09T13:25:45","request-id":"b64280bc-1e2e-4989-9cf1-c485bf2088e8","client-request-id":"b64280bc-1e2e-4989-9cf1-c485bf2088e8"}}}

could you support how to solve this error and guide me hot send the message to non exisiting chat?

Thanks for your reply. there is new news as below :
-It is working now to create the chat, also i have discovered that the principle display name is case sensitive.
-now i successfully create the chat and get the chat id.
-unfortunately, when i try to send new message using the chat id that i had received; i got below error :

{"error":{"code":"InvalidAuthenticationToken","message":"CompactToken parsing failed with error code: 80049217","innerError":{"date":"2022-02-09T15:22:43","request-id":"26f10b31-32de-43b1-b2f1-16de4a047288","client-request-id":"26f10b31-32de-43b1-b2f1-16de4a047288"}}}

although the access token used is the same access token used before in the code.

waiting for your support

Hi MohamedSYASSIN-5189,

I am able to replicate your issue at my end.

Please find the below screenshots where I tried to replicate your issue.

Step 1- I have invited guest user to the chat by passing the user’s email address. After executing the send chat message endpoint I faced the same issue as similar as your case.

Step 2- To resolve this issue, I got the guest users’ user-id and I passed that in request body for one-to-one chat. Then the request is successful.

As per MS documentation, the API can not create a new chat message.
You must use the list chats method to retrieve the ID of an existing chat before you can create a chat message.

Hope this helps.

kindly when i use the below code many times, it works fine to create the chat without using the list chats method to retrieve the ID of an existing chat as you mentioned ; could you confirm that this scenario goes correctly and i don't need to list chat method ?

"https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/chats"

-
{"chatType": "oneOnOne",
"members": [
{
"@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.aadUserConversationMember",
"roles": ["owner"],
"@odata.bind": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users('@qnbalahli.onmicrosoft.com')" ' this for @qnbalahli.com
},
{
"@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.aadUserConversationMember",
"roles": ["owner"],
"@odata.bind": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users('******@qnbalahli.com')" ' this for ******@qnbalahli.com
}
]
