Feature details

There are a number of new actions in the Microsoft Teams connector that provide rich, contextual automation for Microsoft Teams users. Adaptive Cards are offering new experiences in sharing and collecting information on Microsoft Teams. They offer a simple way to display information, build forms, and integrate relevant data from other places.

You can use the new actions in Microsoft Teams to post adaptive cards to teams, users, or channels. You can also collect input from users by using the wait for a response actions.

The approvals actions in Power Automate produce pre-built adaptive cards, meaning you can build approval processes that happen entirely from inside of Microsoft Teams.

Here are the actions we are introducing.
