- Teams in the Microsoft Teams Graph spoke are created from the groups in Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Microsoft Azure Active Directory). To create a team using the Microsoft Teams Graph spoke, the associated group must be present in Microsoft Entra ID.
- User and group management can be done using Microsoft Entra ID only and not Microsoft Teams Graph spoke.
- Teams can be created from the Microsoft Office 365 group only.
- The team ID in Microsoft Teams is the same as the group ID of the associated group in Microsoft Entra ID.

- By default, the grant type is set to Authorization Code.
- All actions in the Application Management, Channel Management, Chat Management, Notification Management, and Team Management categories, and Look up Schedules action in the Calendar Management category use the Microsoft Teams Spoke connection and credential alias and these actions require delegated permissions.
- The Calendar and Webhook Management spoke actions (except Look up schedules action in Calendar Management) use the Microsoft Teams Graph Client Credentials connection and credential alias and these actions require application permissions.
If you want to use the Microsoft Teams Graph Spoke without user interaction, you should change the grant type to Client Credentials so that the ServiceNow application can access the Microsoft Teams Graph API without user involvement. For instructions on how to change grant type and the required configurations, see the Knowledge Base article - KB1635160 on ServiceNow - NOW Support.
For more information about the required permissions, see Microsoft Teams documentation.
For more information about accessing the channel ID and group ID through Microsoft Teams, see Microsoft Teams documentation.
Available AI agents
Install Now Assist for Spokes and start using the available AI agents. For more information, see Now Assist for Spokes.
- In the ServiceNow agentic system, you can create an agentic workflow that comprises of a set of large language model (LLM) instructions along with one or more standalone AI agents to execute an objective. See Create an agentic workflow for information about adding AI Agents to create agentic workflows as per your requirement and provide the required trigger.
You can also search for other available AI agents and add them to your agentic workflow. See Find AI agents for more information.
- You can create a clone of the required spoke AI agent and customize it as per your requirement. See Duplicate an AI agent for more information about creating a clone.
- See Now Assist AI Agents for information about AI agents.
There may be AI agents installed with the Now Assist application that are not used in agentic workflows. To learn how to see all agents that are available to you, see Find AI agents.
Spoke modules
Microsoft account requirements
The Microsoft Teams Graph spoke requires registering an application using the Microsoft Azure portal to generate OAuth 2.0 tokens.
Connection and credential alias requirements
Integration Hub uses aliases to manage connection and credential information, and OAuth credentials. Using an alias eliminates the need to configure multiple credentials and connection information profiles when using multiple environments. If the connection or credential information changes, you don't need to update any actions that use the connection.
For information about setting up the spoke, see Set up the Microsoft Teams Graph spoke.
MID Server requirements
The Microsoft Teams Graph spoke actions use REST calls, which can run on an instance or a MID Server. Use the connection record associated with the Microsoft alias to configure where actions run as well as set MID Server selection attributes. For more information, see MID server.
To set up the MID Server for this spoke, see Set up MID Server for a spoke.
