Hello,

I am making an app for MS Teams which has a bot. I need the bot to send a direct message (proactive) to a subset of users who have installed the app. I have tried using the create conversation API. With single user, it works fine but with multiple users it gives the following error:

error: {
 code: 'BadSyntax',
 message: 'Incorrect conversation creation parameters'
 }

Do I need to do something else? If it's not possible using this API, is there any other way a bot can send a message to multiple users at once?
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hi @fchopo
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, that UI is completely unfamiliar to me. I'm pretty sure what I'm trying to make is not a flow bot but a bot as a part of MS Teams app (this one).

Hello @furiousflamingo

You can create bots with Power Virtual Agents or programming with Microsoft Bot Framework. I don't see any relation about the error with Power Automate. Could you provide more information or context about what you want to do with Power Automate?
