Troubleshooting#

Common Issues#

Authentication Errors

Ensure your Microsoft account has the necessary permissions for Teams access.
Required scopes include: Team.ReadBasic.All, Channel.ReadBasic.All, ChannelMessage.Send, ChannelMessage.Read.All, OnlineMeetings.ReadWrite, OnlineMeetings.Read.
Verify that the OAuth connection includes all required scopes.

Team and Channel Access

Ensure you are a member of the teams you’re trying to access.
Double-check team IDs and channel IDs for correctness.
Team and channel IDs can be obtained using the get_teams and get_channels actions.

Message Sending Issues

Ensure team_id, channel_id, and message are provided for send_message.
Verify that you have permissions to send messages to the specified channel.
Choose appropriate content_type (text or html) based on your message format.

Meeting Creation

Ensure subject, startDateTime, and endDateTime are provided.
Use proper ISO 8601 format with timezone for datetime fields (e.g., ‘2024-01-20T10:00:00-08:00’).
Verify that the meeting times are in the future.

Message Retrieval Limitations

The get_messages action can retrieve a maximum of 50 messages per request.
Messages are returned in reverse chronological order (newest first).

Meeting Search

For search_online_meetings_by_join_url, ensure the join URL is exact and properly formatted.
The URL should be the complete Teams meeting join URL.
