Hello all!

I have a booking room app that has the following interface allowing users to book rooms at an office:

When a user clicks the "Book" button, it will reserve a time-slot in Outlook for the user for the room that they selected. However, I would also like to send out a unique Microsoft Teams invite to the user that booked the room. (I would think the formula would go in the 'OnSelect' function of the "Book" button)

Would anyone know what formula would send out a Teams Invite (linked to the Outlook time reservation that is already reserved when a user selects a room) to the user's email address when a button is clicked?

Thank you!

Could you share the code that runs when the meeting is confirmed on the ConfirmationScreen? Let's see what that is doing before we recommend further changes.

@BCLS776

I used your code and it sends out a separate Microsoft Teams meeting invite in my Outlook calendar. But when I book a room, it also sends a meeting reservation for that same time in Outlook, but without a Teams invite. So I have 2 invites, when I only need 1.

Instead of sending a separate Microsoft Teams invite, how do I format the automated Outlook meeting reservation to include a Teams invite link?

You can use the Microsoft Teams connector, calling MicrosoftTeams.CreateTeamsMeeting() to do this. The function will need several arguments to respond correctly. See this document for the reference info.
