Update channel

Overview

The Update Channel activity calls the Microsoft Graph UpdateChannel API to update the name and description (Name, Description) of a specified channel (Channel) in a team (TeamId).

How it works

The following steps and message sequence diagram is an example of how the activity works from design time (that is, the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.

  1. Complete the Setup steps.
  2. Add the Microsoft Teams Scope activity to your project.
  3. Add an activity or run an external process that outputs a Team.Id value (for example, Get Teams) AND an activity or external process that outputs a Channel.Id value (for example, Get Channels).
  4. Add the Update Channel activity inside the Microsoft Teams Scope activity.
  5. Enter values for the Input properties.
  6. Run the activity.
