Serverless automation using PowerShell in Azure Functions

The Discussion

• 

  Any chance we could get a copy of the script which posts that card to a Teams channel?

• 

  Below is the function to send a teams message. The $env:TeamsWebhook is manually generated for an incoming webhook to the Teams channel. You can get it by right clicking -> connectors -> Incoming Webhook from the Teams channel.
  Thanks,
  Eamon
  
  
  param($Request, $TriggerMetadata)
  
  # Log body of request
  ConvertTo-Json $Request.Body | Write-Verbose
  
  # Get Teams channel url from application setting
  $channelURL = $env:TeamsWebhook
  
  if (!([string]::IsNullOrEmpty($ChannelURL)))
  {
  $TargetURL = $Request.Body.data.context.portalLink
  
  $Body = ConvertTo-Json -Depth 4 @{
  title = "Azure Alert has fired"
  text = "Azure Alert has fired"
  sections = @(
  @{
  activityTitle = "Azure notification has fired"
  activitySubtitle = "Alert on function app " + $Request.Body.data.context.resourceName
  activityText = "This is the detail of the alert..."
  activityImage = "https://www.contoso.image.png"
  }
  )
  potentialAction = @(@{
  '@context' = 'http://schema.org'
  '@type' = 'ViewAction'
  name = 'Click here to manage Function'
  target = @($TargetURL)
  })
  }
  
  # call Teams webhook
  Invoke-RestMethod -Method "Post" -Uri $ChannelURL -Body $Body | Write-Verbose
  }

  Do you need to have your Azure Subscription whitelisted for this preview?

• 

  Is this pitched to ultimately replace Azure Automation in time?

  Very cool!
