Webhooks help Microsoft Teams to integrate with external apps. In Teams, the Outgoing Webhooks act as bot and search for messages in channels using #mention. The Outgoing Webhooks allow users to send messages to web services without performing the entire process of creating bots through Microsoft Bot Framework. The Outgoing Webhooks post data from Teams to any service capable of accepting JSON payload.The service responds within ten seconds to the message with a text or a card.

Twilio Studio AND Twilio Messaging Service SAME number

https://gyazo.com/63cde836b15f181ab0d1cfa6e353d35c
I have two separate API's. One API I'm using the messaging service to bulk send messages to 1k users. Recently I've been experimenting with Twilio Studio and created another API to send a survey flow to customers where they could also reply to the incoming message and its get recorded in my db.
The issue here is, twilio studio wont read the customer's message if I have messaging service. If I remove the phone number from the messenging service, then twilio studio starts reading messages again. Is there anything in the config of messenging service that I can change so that I could have both concurrently?

It sounds like you have this incorrectly configured such that you need to be using the Messaging Service when you send out the bulk messages as Studio will trigger and create a User based on Messaging Service + User as the To-From pair.
This tutorial from my former teammate Tilde on Using Twilio Studio and Conversations with SMS may be helpful.
Let me know if this helps at all!

Permissions required for sending messages through ms teams bot

I want to build a Microsoft teams messaging bot for sending/receiving messages. For my app, I noticed that I had to add application level API permissions for chat read/write scopes and get them approved in order to send bot messages to users.
However, I noticed that installing an app from the Microsoft teams app store (like Stack overflow for teams) worked right out of the box. It didn't require any additional approvals, etc. for their bot to send me a message.
My question is:
What permissions are required/bundled in that can allow bot to send user a message after user installs/adds app?

Connect Teams chat with external chat application

I have an external chat application and I want to try integrate my chat application with MS Teams. I want to have the same type of chat service where MS Teams and Skype interoperate.
I need to know how this was done and is it possible that this can be achieved via API.
If yes, what are the steps? I don't have the idea on where I can start.

Listen to MS Teams Chat New Message

I'm trying to build a chatbot system which can interact with our organization's Microsoft Teams channel. The Chatbot will be deployed on GCP VM. I was wondering how to listen to new messages from Microsoft Teams so that the chatbot can reply Teams user correspondingly in real time.
I know we can use Graph API to get messages from Teams but it doesn't seem realistic to send API request every second to get messages from all Teams users. Is there any other approach?
(We cannot use Azure Bot Service in our organization)
You can Subscribe to chat message and once the message is sent, it will automatically notify to the configured endpoint.

Presence push into Microsoft Teams

Since a couple of months it has been possible to read a users presence and Note via the Microsoft Graph API.
Does anyone know when Microsoft will open up for push and change of a users presence information in Teams via Graph, and will it be possible to do this by means of impersonating the user (that is on behalf of a user)?
We are currently doing the same for Skype for Business by means of the Skype Web API where we push mobile GSM call status information (busy, idle, detached) into SfB.
