🔁 How to refresh and update Adaptive Cards in Teams [Travel Request Self-Service]

[@gegervl]

@DeLucaGiulian Hi, can you please tell me at 31:23 how do you get the Responder Name for the value Approved by ? Is there a way to get this dynamic content ? How should it be written ? I don't know how to get the user info who submit the adaptative card previously this step. Can you explain me that part please ? I need to get this user to display in the updated adaptative card and save it in the sharepoint list

[@DeLucaGiulian]

Hi, Thank you for asking, this is what I have in order to save the approver in the SharePoint list: triggerBody()?['entity']?['teamsFlowRunContext']?['messagePayload']?['from']?['user']?['displayName']

Thank you for sharing your video. I was wondering if the “Update an existing card” action can be paired with the “Post an adaptive card and wait for a response” action. Additionally, some users have reported that the “Update an existing card” action can take up to eight seconds to complete. Is this still the case?

[@DeLucaGiulian]

Hi, Thanks, for your feedback and questions. Regarding the use case I never tried so if you will have the chance let us know. Answering the second question, it really depends of what your flow is doing in the backstage, but as far as I know there is a limited time to refresh the card otherwise the flow will encounter the timeout error.

Good to see it working in channels. Does updating the card work for you in chats with the Flow Bot (outside of channels)? I get an error 403 when I try that.

[@DeLucaGiulian]

Hi Andreas, Yes it works.

@@DeLucaGiulian Thanks for the response. Do you know what permissions are needed for the user that makes the connection in the flow in order to be able to update cards between the flowbot and another user?

[@DeLucaGiulian]

In my case a used a user with Teams and power automate license, I used the same PoC of flows in the video.
