  description: "AsyncAPI 2.6 description of the asynchronous event surface for Microsoft\nTeams. Two distinct delivery channels\
    \ are modeled:\n\n  1. Microsoft Graph change notifications - HTTPS webhook deliveries that\n     Microsoft Graph POSTs\
    \ to a subscriber-owned `notificationUrl` (and an\n     optional `lifecycleNotificationUrl`) when subscribed Teams resources\n\
    \     (chats, channels, teams, chat messages, conversation members, call\n     recordings, call transcripts, Teams app\
    \ installations) change.\n  2. Bot Framework activities - HTTPS deliveries that the Teams channel of\n     the Azure Bot\
    \ Service POSTs to the bot's messaging endpoint when a\n     user (or Teams itself) triggers a conversation event (message,\n\
    \     conversationUpdate, messageReaction, installationUpdate, invoke,\n     event, typing, messageUpdate, messageDelete).\n\
    \nResource paths, change types, payload shapes, and bot activity event types\nare taken from the public Microsoft Learn\
