Get Teams

Overview

Using your search parameters (QueryOptions) and specified team list type (Filter - AllTeams or MyJoinedTeams), the Get Teams activity calls the Microsoft Graph ListAllTeams or ListJoinedTeams APIs to retrieve the teams that match your query.

After retrieving the teams, the activity outputs their properties and relationships in Team[] object that you can use as input variables in subsequent activities (e.g., `Team(0).Id in Get Channels, Update Channel, etc.).

How It Works

The following steps and message sequence diagram is an example how the activity works from design time (i.e., the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.

1. Complete the Setup steps.
2. Add the Microsoft Teams Scope activity to your project.
3. Add the Get Teams activity inside the Microsoft Teams Scope activity.
4. Enter values for the Input properties.
5. Create and enter a Team[] variable for your Output property.
6. Run the activity.

   • Your input property values are sent to the ListAllTeams or ListJoinedTeams APIs.

   • The API returns the Team[] value to your output property variable.

An array of teams (Team[] object) that match your ListType and QueryOptions values.

Attributes	Details
Type	Team[]
Required	No (required if you plan to use the output data in subsequent activities)
Default value	Empty
Allowed values	Enter a Team[] variable.
Notes	The variable you create for this property can be used as an input variable in subsequent activities (e.g., Team(0).Id in [Get Channels](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/legacy-integrations/microsoft-teams-get-channels#get-channels), [Update Channel](https://docs.uipath.com/activities/other/latest/legacy-integrations/microsoft-teams-update-channel#update-channel), etc.). * When using this variable as an input property value, specify the item in the array that you want to use (e.g., *myTeams(0)*). The Teamobject includes multiple [properties](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/team?view=graph-rest-beta#properties) and [relationships](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/team?view=graph-rest-beta#relationships) that you can use in other activities.The example image below shows some of the properties that you can return. Note - some properties listed in the designer are not applicable to theTeamobject (e.g.,Template). For a list of the applicable Team` properties, visit the links above.
