Release Notes for Microsoft Teams Approval
The Microsoft Teams Approval app is available for download in the Matrix42 Extension Gallery.
Microsoft Teams Approval Extension 1.0.20250321.1
This version has the following bugs fixed comparing to version 1.0.20250128.1:
- PowerShell scripts for installation and uninstallation are removed (not required for generally supported versions of ESM)
- Workflow for sending push notification and the service were reworked to use User Principal Name (e-mail) instead of User Object ID due to the fact that some customers have SID stored instead of User Object ID that prevents push notification sending.
Known issue: Due to PowerShell script removal, extension update from earlier version and following uninstallation will put the system in the inoperable state. To avoid that, manual editing of configuration file is required (either before uninstallation or after it): the mention of Teams Approval DLL must be removed from <installation folder>\svc\host.config file:
