📤 Deploying Airflow Copilot App to Microsoft Teams

After creating your Azure Bot, follow the steps below to connect it to the Airflow Copilot Teams app and upload the package.

1: App‑Level Deployment Options

Deployment Who can do it Visibility
Organization‑wide Teams tenant admins Available to all users
Personal scope Any user Visible only to the uploader

  1. Locate the Microsoft App ID from the Azure Bot you created earlier.
    (See Create Azure Bot if you need a refresher.)

  2. Download the Copilot Teams manifest ZIP.

  3. Extract the ZIP and open manifest.json.

  4. Replace every instance of ${MICROSOFT_APP_ID} with your real App ID
    (usually appears twice).

  5. Re‑zip exactly these three files — not the folder:

manifest.json

3: Upload the App to Microsoft Teams

Note: Uploading custom apps may be disabled on tightly‑managed tenants. Check with your Teams admin if the options below are missing.

The custom app option is also not available with community version of Microsoft Teams.

  1. Open Microsoft Teams.

  2. Click Apps in the left sidebar.

  3. Select Manage your apps at the bottom.

  4. Click ➕ Upload an app. Depending on your permissions you will see:

    • Upload an app to your org's app catalog – Admin only
    • Upload a custom app – Personal scope
    • Submit an app to your org – Require Admin approval.

    Upload an App

  5. Choose the re‑zipped package and confirm.

Once uploaded, Airflow Copilot will appear in your Apps list. Invite it to a channel or chat privately to start issuing Airflow commands.
