Teams AI library quick start guide

Get started with Teams AI library using the LightBot sample, which is designed to help you through the process of creating apps that can control lights, such as turning them on and off using Teams AI library. The bot uses the gpt-3.5-turbo model to chat with Microsoft Teams users and respond in a polite and respectful manner, staying within the scope of the conversation.

Prerequisites

To get started, ensure that you have the following tools:

Install For using...
Visual Studio Code JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python build environments. Use the latest version.
Teams Toolkit Microsoft Visual Studio Code extension that creates a project scaffolding for your app. Use the latest version.
Git Git is a version control system that helps you manage different versions of code within a repository.
Node.js Back-end JavaScript runtime environment. For more information, see Node.js version compatibility table for project type.
Microsoft Teams To collaborate with everyone, you work with them through apps for chat, meetings, and call all in one place.
OpenAI or Azure OpenAI First create your OpenAI API key to use OpenAI's GPT. If you want to host your app or access resources in Microsoft Azure, you must create an Azure OpenAI service.
Microsoft Edge (recommended) or Google Chrome A browser with developer tools.
Microsoft 365 developer account Access to Teams account with the appropriate permissions to install an app and enable custom Teams apps and turn on custom app uploading.

If you've already run the samples before or encountered a runtime error, follow these steps to start fresh:
  • Check all the .env and env/.env.*.* files in the sample and delete any automatically populated values to ensure that Teams Toolkit generates new resources for you.
  • If you don’t want Teams Toolkit to generate the app ID and password, update the BOT_ID and BOT_PASSWORD in the .env file with your own values.
  • Remove values or leave the values blank for SECRET_BOT_PASSWORD and TEAMS_APP_UPDATE_TIME in the .env file to avoid conflicts.

Teams Toolkit automatically provisions BOT_ID and BOT_PASSWORD resources. If you want to use your own resources, you need to manually add them to the .env file. Teams Toolkit doesn't auto-generate the following resources:

  • An Azure OpenAI or OpenAI key
  • A database or similar storage options

Build and run the sample app

Get started with Teams AI library using the LightBot sample. It enables your computer’s localhost to quickly execute a Teams AI library-based sample.

  1. Go to the sample.

  2. Run the following command to clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai.git
    
  3. Go to Visual Studio Code.

  4. Select File > Open Folder.

  5. Go to the location where you cloned teams-ai repo and select the teams-ai folder.

  6. Select Select Folder.

    Screenshot shows the teams-ai folder and the Select Folder option.

  7. Select View > Terminal. A terminal window opens.

  8. In the terminal window, run the following command to go to the js folder:

    cd .\js\
    
  9. Run the following command to install dependencies:

    yarn install
    
  10. Run the following command to build dependencies:

    yarn build
    
  11. After the dependencies are installed, select File > Open Folder.

  12. Go to teams-ai > js > samples> 03.ai-concepts> c.actionMapping-lightBot and select Select Folder. All the files for the LightBot sample are listed under the EXPLORER section in Visual Studio Code.

  13. Update the following steps based on the AI services you select.

    1. Go to the env folder and update the following code in ./env/.env.local.user file:

       SECRET_OPENAI_KEY=<your OpenAI key>
      
    2. Go to the infra folder and ensure that the following lines in the azure.bicep file are commented out:

          // {
          //   name: 'AZURE_OPENAI_KEY'
          //   value: azureOpenAIKey
          // }
          // {
          //   name: 'AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT'
          //   value: azureOpenAIEndpoint
          // }
      
  14. From the left pane, select Teams Toolkit.

  15. Under ACCOUNTS, sign-in to the following:

    • Microsoft 365 account
    • Azure account
  16. To debug your app, select F5.

    A browser tab opens the Teams web client to add the bot to your tenant.

  17. Select Add.
