Hi Team,

I want to know if Microsoft Graph API with Azure AD application token supports operations to initiate a one to one chat with user without prior conversation?

    @VD ,

    From Microsoft Teams side, you can create deep links to private chats between users by specifying the set of participants.

    Use this format for a deep link that you can use in a bot, connector, or messaging extension card:
    *https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=\<user1>,<user2>,...&topicName=<chatname>&message=<precannedtext> *

    As we are mainly responsible for general question of Microsoft Teams, your requirement related to development is not supported by us. I will add office-teams-app-dev tag to get more efficient support. Thanks for your understanding.
