Description

The teams resource file lacks information on how to send yourself a Teams message. As Chats require two members to be listed, a special chat-id must be used for notes to self.

Details:

  • Use reserved self-chat ID 48:notes
  • create_entity on /me/chats/48:notes/messages

I don't have anything in a public repo available but here's a patch (generated by Claude) that updates the teams resource file to enable this functionality.

I have tested this and it's now used widely across my company.

Research direction

Inspect the Teams resource file and the attached patch first. Verify that self-messaging uses the reserved 48:notes chat ID with create_entity on /me/chats/48:notes/messages; done means the resource supports sending a message to the current user, with the behavior checked against the reported usage.
