A Microsoft Outlook event Slack bot

Project description

Microsoft Outlook Event API Slack Bot

The repository includes a Python-based Slack Bot for MS Outlook events.

Functionality

The application allows accessing shared calendars of a user and reading the corresponding weekly events via Microsoft API calls. In the next step, it is possible to send this event in the form of a Slack message to a connected Slack channel.

Installation

pip install outlook-event-slack-bot

    parser.add_argument("-scn", "--shared_calendar_name", type=str, required=True,
                        help="Get the Outlook shared calendar name")

    args = parser.parse_args()

    outlook_calendar_api: OutlookCalendarApi = OutlookCalendarApi(
        tenant=args.tenant, client_id=args.client_id, client_secret=args.client_secret
    )
    outlook_calendar: OutlookCalendar = OutlookCalendar(outlook_calendar_api)
    events: list = outlook_calendar.get_events(
        args.shared_calendar_name, args.shared_calendar_user
    )
    events_cw: list = outlook_calendar.get_weekly_events(events)
    Slack(SlackAPI(args.webhook), args.custom_notification).send_slack_message(events_cw)
