Create Channel and add Planner

Hi,

I need to create a Team and a Channel and add Planner to that channel.

So I first create the team with
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/teams

Which is the best approach to get the ID of the previous step output so its set to the owner of the Planner?

It's on the Location attribute.

What I'm doing at the moment is:

1. Get location with: outputs('Create_Team_and_Channel')['headers']?['Location']

2. Get Group ID with: https://graph.microsoft.com/beta//teams('b013d1cf-44c3-4cc1-a4f0-cd07410xxx')/operations('bf150ac9-49de-4682-bacd-f7947874xxxx')

3. Parse JSON to get targetResourceId

4. Create Planner with: https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/planner/plans

{
"owner": "targetResourceId",
"title": "title-value"
}

Do these steps look correct or is there a more straight forward approach to create the Channel and add a Planner to it?

Thanks

Hi @Jorge_s

Nope. You do not have to. If you are directly using the http action, it returns the ID and if you are using a custom connector, you can define the response to return the ID.

Hope this Helps!

Thnaks for your reply.
What I wasn't sure about is that if I need to perform all that steps just to get the Id of the Team created. They seem too many.

Hi @Jorge_s

How are you invoking the graph api? Is it through the HTTP request or have you created a custom connector? Either way, the response returns the ID and you can use the same for passing in the next action. Api ref: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/channel-post?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

Hope this helps!
