Get change notifications for chat membership using Microsoft Graph
Change notifications enable you to subscribe to changes (create and delete) in chats membership. You can get notified whenever a conversationMember resource is added or removed from a chat. You can also get the resource data in the notifications and therefore avoid calling the API to get the payload.
Continue with this article about scenarios for the conversationMember resource in the chat context. Or, find out about change notifications for other Microsoft Teams resources.
Note
If you request a subscription expirationDateTime that is more than 1 hour in the future, you must subscribe to lifecycle notifications by including a lifecycleNotificationUrl property in your subscription request. Otherwise your subscription request will fail with the following error message: lifecycleNotificationUrl is a required property for subscription creation on this resource when the expirationDateTime value is set to greater than 1 hour.

}
}
The resource and @odata.id properties can be used to make calls to Microsoft Graph to get the payload for the chat member details. GET calls always return the current state of the chat member details. If the chat member details changes between when the notification is sent and when the chat member details are retrieved, the operation returns the updated chat member details.
