I am looking for how can I ask Cortana to perform functionality provided in Microsoft Teams?
e.g. I should be able to achieve below:
1) Ask Cortana to schedule meeting with Microsoft Teams link on calender
2) Ask Cortana to start/stop Teams meeting
etc.
I have office 365 business Premium subscription, Win 10 (1709) with Cortana setup.
Also, I have read that Cortana is coming Teams and Outlook. However, I am not sure of timeline, release version for the same. Any update on same?
If that is still pending, what is the way I can achieve my above goals like writing cortana custom skill, Teams app etc???
I am new to Microsoft Teams however, I have automated much of Skype of Business functionality using non-Cortana Voice Assistant. I am switching to Microsoft Teams and want Cortana to performs Teams features.
Any pointers greatly appreciated..
Thanks in advance,
You can add a bot service bot to teams through chat.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/concepts/bots/bots-overview
You can also interface with teams via Microsoft graph.
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/docs/api-reference/v1.0/resources/teams_api_overview
And you can wrap it all up in a Cortana skill. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cortana/skills/overview
If you plan on doing this for a big enterprise, Microsoft is current running a Technology Adopters Program for companies wanting to build enterprise skills before February. You can email cortanae at microsoft for program details ( but you need a committed ship road map to apply. )

I want to reuse the MS Teams OOTB Praise functionality in my Personal MS Teams app, is there a way to achieve this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Currently it is not supported. You may suggest this feature at the Microsoft Teams feedback portal.
I am trying to mention whole team (not a single user) in an adaptive card using Power automate
I am able to mention single user by following the steps mentioned in this link use adaptive cards with mention in microsoft teams
But I am not able to mention the whole team in the card
Example
My team name is 'Test Teams', If I am posting a message manually in the teams then I can just use #Test Teams to mention whole team but I am not able to do the same with Microsoft Flow
Can anyone help me on this
#WholeTeam remains on the backlog in Teams UserVoice,
Microsoft will always focus on customer’s feedback and experience, some new features would be added to the services based on customers' feedback in the future, we also recommend you give your new idea in Teams UserVoice here:

Previously, I had published my Chatbot using MS bot framework in Skype for Business.
However, later I realized that buttons, cards and carousels are not supported in the SFB.
So, I gave up troubleshooting on that and went on to publish the same bot to Microsoft Teams.
It deployed successfully and I am able to see the deployed chatbot in people's list when I open my MSTeams account. Besides that, I can also see the chatbot that was deployed in Skype for business.
However, none of my colleagues are able to view my published bot.
It only shows the old bot imported from SFB.
Is there some kind of access related configuration I need to do? If not, what else is missing here?
We are looking to develop a BOT for enterprise space and I was wondering if there is any roadmap available for SkypeForBusiness channel to be in production. We are using Microsoft Bot Framework for our Bot development and want to know when the channel, which is currently in preview, can be used in production. I have tried looking for it online but I am unable to find any update.
#Waqas Zia: Not sure if I'm answering exactly what you want. Hopefully you are aware of the annonuncement at last Ignite that Microsoft is integrating Skype for Business capabilities into Teams and encouraging customers to upgrade to Teams as their primary communication / collaboration experience in CY18 as it meets their needs. Roadmap coming for Skype for Business to Teams convergence is now available. Hope this helps to plan accordingly. We don't have ETA yet about launch for production.
I am developing a bot using MS bot framework and going to integrate with MS teams. but I have a challenge enabling voice commands for this bot via MS teams.
even though bot emulator has a little mice button, but it also cannot use for send voice commands
is it possible to do this with MS team? I couldn't able to find any documentation regarding this.
I am using NodeJS for this project.
Initial response (April 2018):
The only channels where Speech is supported are Webchat, the DirectLine channel, and Cortana
Reference: here on Microsoft's Bot Framework Team blog
The Bot Framework now supports speech as a method of interacting with
the bot across Webchat, the DirectLine channel, and Cortana
Updated (Feb 2019) :
See Bill answer below, there is also now a preview for voice and video for Teams channel
The voice input is not yet support in Microsoft Teams.
Support for voice and video bots is now in technical preview. Please see these links for more information:
