**📋 Shared Instructions: [shared-instructions.md](../../shared/shared-instructions.md)** - Cross-cutting concerns.

Add Teams

Workflow

1. Check Memory Bank → 2. Add Connector → 3. Configure → 4. Build → 5. Update Memory Bank

---

Step 1: Check Memory Bank

Check for `memory-bank.md` per [shared-instructions.md](../../shared/shared-instructions.md).

Step 2: Add Connector

Get the connection as described in [connector-reference.md](../../shared/connector-reference.md#connections).

**CLI 1.3.0+ (`PA_INLINE_CONNECTIONS=yes`):** tell the user that adding Teams may create a connection with their account, then run the add without `-c` and handle the result with the outcome table in connector-reference.md:

pa app add data-source --connector teams --non-interactive

**Older CLIs:** run `/list-connections` to find the Teams connection ID (if none exists, create one with `pa connection create` as described in connector-reference.md), then:

pa app add data-source --connector teams -c <connection-id>

Step 3: Configure

Ask the user what Teams operations they need (send message, post to channel, etc.).

**PostMessageToConversation** -- sends a chat message via Flow bot:

await TeamsService.PostMessageToConversation({
  "Post as": "Flow bot",
  "Post in": "Chat with Flow bot",
  "Post message request": {
    recipient: "<recipient-upn-or-id>", // UPN or Entra object ID
    messageBody: "<p>HTML message</p>", // HTML format
    isAlert: false,
    feedbackLoopEnabled: false
  }
});

Use `Grep` to find specific methods in `src/generated/services/TeamsService.ts` (generated files can be very large -- see [connector-reference.md](../../shared/connector-reference.md#inspecting-large-generated-files)).

Step 4: Build

npm run build

Fix TypeScript errors before proceeding. Do NOT deploy yet.

Step 5: Update Memory Bank

Update `memory-bank.md` with: connector added, configured operations, build status.
