Social distancing?  Always great to see everyone so virtually close while being located so physically far from one another.    In person events soon! 

 

Demos delivered in this session

  • Managing your Viva Connections and SharePoint Framework solutions using the new Apps site in SharePoint Online –​ completely Modernized App Catalog – Modernized app request process and Modernized app catalog experiences.  One place to upload, manage (app request and approval) and deploy SPFx solutions (custom components) in an organization.   Existing catalog UX will be updated (aligned to typical Admin UX), no action on your part and no impact on existing catalog functionality.   Demo and next steps on SPFx store and app catalog reviewed.

  • Building a bot for Microsoft Teams which detects user presence changes – deliver presence change notifications with Bot + Graph.  The Microsoft Graph REST API uses a webhook mechanism to deliver change notifications to user.    The bot subscribes to presence change notification and notifies when user status is changed.   Clearly defined execution steps shown along with targeted code walkthrough for configuring and running this sample locally.  Uses Bot Framework SDK v4, Graph APIs, and subscription service.

  • Building MGT apps with Angular – MGT is Framework agnostic.   If you're building apps with Angular, you can use Microsoft Graph Toolkit components.   To get started – install the Angular CLI, use the Angular CLI to scaffold up a new web application (ng new angular app name), then install MGT.   In this demo see how the mgt-login and mgt-agenda components are added within Angular components.

     

Thank you for your creativity and work execution.   Samples are often showcased in Demos.
