Teams Migration

## Customization

**Before executing, check for user customizations at:**
`~/.claude/skills/PAI/USER/SKILLCUSTOMIZATIONS/TeamsMigration/`

If this directory exists, load and apply any PREFERENCES.md, configurations, or resources found there. These override default behavior. If the directory does not exist, proceed with skill defaults.

## Voice Notification

**You MUST send this notification BEFORE doing anything else when this skill is invoked.**

1. **Send voice notification**:
   ```bash
   curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8888/notify \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"message": "Running the WORKFLOWNAME workflow in the TeamsMigration skill to ACTION"}' \
     > /dev/null 2>&1 &
   ```

2. **Output text notification**:
   ```
   Running the **WorkflowName** workflow in the **TeamsMigration** skill to ACTION...
   ```

# TeamsMigration

Migrate MS Teams meeting chat or group chat content to team channels, preserving sender attribution, timestamps, images, and attachments. Uses the `teams-mcp` MCP server for reading and the Microsoft Graph API directly for high-volume batch posting with automatic token refresh and rate limiting.

## Workflow Routing

| Workflow | Trigger | File |
|----------|---------|------|
| **MigrateChat** | "migrate chat", "copy chat to channel", "move messages" | `Workflows/MigrateChat.md` |
| **ExportChat** | "export chat", "backup chat", "download messages" | `Workflows/ExportChat.md` |

## Examples

**Example 1: Migrate a meeting chat to a team channel**
```
User: "Migrate the Teams meeting chat to the DevOps channel"
--> Invokes MigrateChat workflow
--> Verifies auth, fetches all messages with pagination
--> Filters system/deleted messages, reverses to chronological order
--> Posts each message with sender + timestamp attribution
--> Verifies count parity and spot-checks content
```

**Example 2: Export chat messages to a local file**
```
User: "Export all messages from our DevOps chat"
--> Invokes ExportChat workflow
--> Fetches all messages with full pagination
--> Saves to JSON file with metadata
```

## Quick Reference

- **MCP Server:** `@floriscornel/teams-mcp` (npm)
- **Auth file:** `~/.msgraph-mcp-auth.json`
- **Token cache:** `~/.teams-mcp-token-cache.json`
- **Auth command:** `npx @floriscornel/teams-mcp@latest authenticate`
- **Migration tool:** `Tools/MigrateChat.mjs` (Node.js, no dependencies)

## Key Learnings

- **Graph API `descending: false` not supported** -- fetch descending, reverse array
- **`download_message_hosted_content`** only works for channel messages, not chat messages
- **Token auto-refresh** via MSAL refresh token in `~/.teams-mcp-token-cache.json`
- **Rate limiting** handled by respecting `Retry-After` header on 429 responses
- **For bulk posting (50+ messages)** use `Tools/MigrateChat.mjs` directly via Graph API instead of MCP tool calls
- **Account must have Teams license** -- `Chat.*` endpoints fail without it (403)

---

## Gotchas

- **Graph API ignores `descending: false` on chat messages:** Endpoint silently returns descending order anyway. Always fetch descending, reverse the array locally — assuming ascending will post messages in reverse chronological order to the destination.
- **`download_message_hosted_content` works only for channel messages, not chat messages:** Images in meeting/group chats need a different code path through `/chats/{id}/messages/{id}/hostedContents`. Calling it on a chat message returns 404 with a misleading "content not found".
- **MSAL refresh token in `~/.teams-mcp-token-cache.json` expires after 90 days idle:** First migration after a long gap fails with `AADSTS700082`. Re-run `npx @floriscornel/teams-mcp@latest authenticate` — token refresh is silent until it isn't.
- **`Chat.*` Graph endpoints require a Teams license on the calling account:** Service accounts without a license return 403 with text that mentions permissions, not licensing. Verify with `az ad user show --id <upn> --query assignedLicenses` before debugging Graph scopes.
- **MCP tool calls hit a per-second rate limit around 50 messages:** Bulk migrations through the MCP layer get throttled into hours. For 50+ messages, bypass MCP and use `Tools/MigrateChat.mjs` directly against Graph with `Retry-After` handling.
- **Posting preserves sender name in body text, not metadata:** The destination channel shows the migration bot as the author, with the original sender embedded in the message text. Compliance/eDiscovery queries on author will miss migrated content entirely.
