Power Automate - Create a SharePoint list item when a Teams message is posted

Posted on by JacoJoubert

Hi Community

I would like to create a SharePoint list item when a new Microsoft Teams message is posted in a specific channel.

I created a SharePoint list with a couple of columns including a "Multiple lines of text" column type with "Enhanced rich text (Rich text with pictures, tables, and hyperlinks)" enabled for the Teams message body called "Request Description".

I am able to create a new SharePoint list item when a new Teams chat is created, but the "Request Description" column only contains the text of the message and does not include any images (it does, however, look like it has a placeholder, but the image does not display).

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thank you

This is because in the body content the image in teams is referenced as <attachment id="GUID"></attachment>

This will not work in sharepoint as the attachment is not parsed there.

You should look for contentURL value that will have the image URL directly but it will still not display as this image is hosted in Teams File folder so if you are not authenticated in that browser it will show empty. You will need to modify SharePoint settings to view them.

@Rahber thank you for your response. I understand now why this is not working. Do you have any suggestions on how to authenticate the request to Teams?
