Customize Actionable Notifications for Teams

Hi All,

I am trying to create my own actionable notification for Teams using business rules. My goal is to make something similar to MS Teams: Send comment to caller notification from IT Service Management for Microsoft 365 application where user can respond to a comment and the comment will be saved to the INC. I want to do something similar but for other fields (e.g. work notes). I analyzed the code behind the BR and I can customize my notification card but I am not able to handle the response from user. I noticed that when the response from notification arrives, SN triggers Execute Action action with a predefined payload where a handler is defined. I would like to change the handler to a custom one:

 

"action_name":"send_reply","action_identifier":"com.snc.ms_teams","action_handler":"sn_now_teams.MSTeamsMessageActionsTaskHandler"

 

Unfortunately, I do not really know how this action is triggered as Flow Designer only shows it was a background script as a trigger.

 

Do you know how I can handle the response from MS Teams chat via BR? I know that I can do it using Virtual Agent, but I would like to do it using actionable notifications as user experience there is better.

Given the widespread use of Microsoft Teams, it would be expected that ServiceNow products support these notification system by deafult
