Question

I am using Microsoft Bot Framework. How to get user name of user when they are chatting with Microsoft Bot on Microsoft Teams.I am using bot builder and node.js

Answer 1

You can probably get the name of the person using:

session.message.address.user.name

Though you may have to check that, as different channel exposes different kind of data to the framework. Also you can have a look in the channelData field as well. It contains data specific to the channel. You can find channel data using:

session.message.source
