Office365 Connector Python worker extension for Azure Functions.

Azure Functions Extensions Connectors Office365 library for Python

This library allows Office365 Connector Triggers in Python Function Apps to recognize and bind to client types from the Azure Connectors SDK.

Office365 client types can be generated from:

• Office365 Connector Triggers

Source code | Package (PyPi) | API reference documentation | Product documentation | Samples

Getting started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.9 or later is required to use this package. For more details, please read our page on Python Functions version support policy.

• You must have an Azure subscription and an Office365 account to use this package.

Install the package

Install the Azure Functions Extensions Connectors Office365 library for Python with pip:

pip install azurefunctions-extensions-connectors-office365

Bind to the SDK-type

The Azure Functions Extensions Connectors Office365 library for Python allows you to create a function app with an Office365 Connector Trigger and define the type as a ClientReceiveMessage or List[ClientReceiveMessage]. Instead of receiving raw data, when the function is executed, the type returned will be the defined SDK-type and have all of the methods available from the azure-connectors SDK.

Key concepts

ClientReceiveMessage

The ClientReceiveMessage type represents a message received from an Office365 connector. The extension automatically parses the incoming JSON payload and converts it into typed ClientReceiveMessage objects from the azure-connectors SDK.

Cardinality

Office365 Connector Triggers support both single and batch message processing:

• Single message (cardinality=one): Annotate your function parameter as ClientReceiveMessage to receive one message per function invocation
• Batch messages (cardinality=many): Annotate your function parameter as List[ClientReceiveMessage] to receive multiple messages in a single function invocation

Examples

Office365 Connector Trigger - Single Message

import logging
import azure.functions as func
import azurefunctions.extensions.connectors.office365 as office365

app = func.FunctionApp()

@app.connector_trigger(arg_name="message", connection="OFFICE365_CONNECTION")
def office365_trigger_single(message: office365.ClientReceiveMessage):
    logging.info(f"Received Office365 message: {message}")
    # Access message properties using the Azure Connectors SDK methods

Office365 Connector Trigger - Batch Messages

import logging
from typing import List
import azure.functions as func
import azurefunctions.extensions.connectors.office365 as office365

app = func.FunctionApp()

@app.connector_trigger(arg_name="messages", connection="OFFICE365_CONNECTION")
def office365_trigger_batch(messages: List[office365.ClientReceiveMessage]):
    logging.info(f"Received {len(messages)} Office365 messages")
    for message in messages:
        logging.info(f"Processing message: {message}")
        # Access message properties using the Azure Connectors SDK methods

Troubleshooting

General

Office365 Connector extension errors will be raised as ValueError exceptions with descriptive error messages.

Logging

Enable verbose logging in your function app to see detailed information about message processing:

import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
