Hi, what i want to do:
I have a Power App with an Gallery. The Gallery contains multiple Items, each with a title and a url.
Here i want to add some kind of share functionality: When i click an item i want a popup in which i can select one or multiple teams users (or office users). Then i want to click on a button to send them a message, containing the title and url of the selected gallery item.
Here i mostly struggle with the sending of a message. I read about creating a flow and using the flow bot but i cant get it configured correctly. I also read about the PostMessageToConversation method https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Building-Power-Apps/PostMessageToConversation-Invalid-Number-of-Arguments/td-p/2293002 but i also cant get it worked with a single user (i dont want any channel!).

Can someone help me out here? Im pretty new to Power Apps and Power Automate.

Thank you!

HI @aaaleeex7,

MicrosoftTeams.PostMessageToConversation("User","Channel",ParseJSON(JSON({recipient:{groupId:"***",channelId:"***"},messageBody:"<p>testtest</p>"},JSONFormat.Compact)))

For each parameter in this formula, I stronglu suggest you check the following thread for reference:

Hi @v-qiaqi-msft
thanks for the reply. But it seems like your method is only working with groups and channels. I want to share the message to a single person in ms teams, no group or channel.
