Workflow is not able to post a message/card in Private channels

Hello all,

I have created a simple workflow which posts on a channel when a webhook is received.

It works when I use a public channel. However, with private channels - it always throws error: '{"error":{"code":"BotNotInConversationRoster","message":"The bot is not part of the conversation roster."}}'.

I have checked my team's settings, channel settings. Everything seems to be valid. I have used "Post as: Flow bot" in the configuration -

Is this a bug or is there any workaround for this issue? I assume we can use "User" in "Post as" parameter, but I intend not to go with that approach.

Hi @ND-12050609-0,

The documentation of the connector suggests that this is a general limitation of the Teams connector:

Posting a message or adaptive card to a private channel currently isn't supported

Happy to help out 😁

just set the "post as" to "user" to receive he postings also in private channels.

this will create posts as the user that offers the connection from PA to teams
