I have a flow established that posts changes to internal documents (sharepoint) to Microsoft Teams via "Post message in a chat or channel" I'd like to modify this flow so that the team (ABS HUB) or channel (Announcements) is tagged in the post. Researching led to the following:
* The HTTP request approach Mention a team with a flow – Expiscornovus - cannot use, lacking permissions, unattainable.
* the <at> formatting - just results to a plain text @symbol.
* As a long shot I tried using "Get an @mention token for a user" where instead of a user email I used the channel email.
* The sibling action "Get an @mention token for a tag" - cannot use this as any member of the team would be able to mention it, did not find a way to restrict access. Also seems like would need to add users manually or set up another flow to apply the tag when a new user is added to the team.
Any ideas are appreciated, thanks for reviewing.
Tagging of channels is only possible using the API. A work around could be to link to a specific message in the channel, you would need to build the URL and post it to the channel.
See this to get some ideas on how to do that.
