I created PVA chatbot in Teams, which should help us in realization of daily scrum meeting. Except standard features like make questions, one feature of bot should be random selecting team member in chat, who starts the conversation (or answers on the questions). Is there any idea how to implement this feature in PVA chatbot? Is it possible that PVA chatbot discovers which members of teams are present in chat and randomly selects one of the team member ?

Hi @zdzunic,

I would say in concept this should be possible.

There is a getPresencesByUserId method in the Graph API which supports the retrieval of presence of multiple users at once:

You could filter the output for availability and use the number of items in rand function and select a random first item.
