Create a Team, Add Members, and Post a Message
with RingCentral
Create a team, add members, post a message, and read the post back.
- Create the team. The returned id is both the team id and the chat id used for posting, so it is captured once and reused by the later steps.
- Add the requested people to the team. Members may be identified by internal person id or by email address. This returns 204 with no body.
- Post the opening message into the team's chat using the team id as the chat id.
- Read the post back to confirm it was persisted to the chat and to capture the rendered attachment ids for any follow-up edit.
What you'll need to have ready
- teamName: Name of the team to create (e.g. "Incident 4821").
- description: User-friendly description of the team's purpose.
- public: Whether the team is public (discoverable and joinable by anyone in the company) or private.
- members: People to add to the team after creation. Each entry identifies a person by internal id or by email.
- text: The message body to post. Supports RingCentral's markdown-style formatting.
