Project Name: Build a Microsoft Teams Search Bot ## 1. Project Overview I want to create a simple chatbot for my company's Microsoft Teams. When a staff member types an IP address or a Computer Name (Hostname) into the chat, the bot should automatically look it up in an Excel spreadsheet and reply with the details of that asset (like who owns it or its location). To keep our company data safe, I will not give the developer access to my system, and I do not want to import pre-made files. Instead, the developer will guide me over a live video call (like Zoom or Teams) while I share my screen, showing me exactly where to click on my laptop to build the bot myself. ## 2. Tools We Will Use We will use standard Microsoft tools that are already built into our company account: * Microsoft Teams (Where staff will chat with the bot) * Microsoft Copilot Studio (The tool used to make the bot) * Microsoft Power Automate (The tool that searches the Excel sheet) * Excel Online (Where the asset list is saved) [1, 2, 3] ## 3. How We Will Work Together## (ipen for discussion) Step 1: Pre-Meeting Preparation * Before our call, I will prepare a test Excel sheet on my laptop with 5 rows of completely fake computer names and fake IP addresses. * We will use this fake list to build and test the bot so no real company data is exposed. ## Step 2: Live Building Session (Via Screen-Share) * We will get on a live video call. I will share my laptop screen. * The developer will talk me through the setup step-by-step: 1. Showing me how to format my Excel sheet correctly. 2. Guiding me to create the chatbot interface inside Teams. 3. Teaching me how to connect the chatbot to the Excel sheet so it can search. 4. Showing me how to format the bot's final reply so it looks clean and neat. ## Step 3: Testing and Handover * We will type a fake IP address into the bot together to make sure it successfully pulls the correct information from our test Excel sheet. * The developer will show me how to safely swap out the fake Excel sheet for my real one after the call is over. ## 4. What the Developer Needs to Deliver * Live Guidance: Clear, step-by-step spoken instructions during our video session. No technical jargon. * A Working Bot: By the end of our call, I should have a fully functioning chatbot on my laptop that successfully searches Excel data. * Error Handling: The bot must be able to say "Sorry, that IP or Computer Name was not found" if someone types a wrong number

I can help with this, I will guide you through building the Teams search bot live — Copilot Studio for the chat interface, Power Automate for the Excel lookup flow, and a clean reply card showing asset details. One thing I will set up with you: a fallback condition in Power Automate so partial hostname matches still return results, preventing false "not found" errors when staff skip a prefix. Questions: 1) Is your Excel file stored in SharePoint or OneDrive for Business? 2) How many columns does your real asset sheet have beyond IP, hostname, owner, and location? Looking forward to talking through the details. Kamran

Hi I can guide you step by step to build a Microsoft Teams search bot using Copilot Studio, Power Automate, and Excel Online without needing access to your company data. My experience includes Microsoft 365 automation, Teams bots, Copilot Studio topics, Power Automate flows, Excel table lookups, conditional logic, and clean response formatting. The main technical issue is making the bot reliably detect either an IP address or hostname, search the correct Excel table column, and return a clear result without exposing real asset data. I will solve this by helping you format the Excel sheet as a proper table, create the bot trigger, connect a Power Automate lookup flow, and handle both found and not-found responses. During the screen-share session, I can explain each click in plain language so you understand how the bot is built and how to maintain it later. We can test with your fake asset data first, confirm the Teams reply format, and then I can show you the safe process for replacing the test file with the real spreadsheet. The final setup will support clean asset replies, basic error handling, and a maintainable workflow your internal team can adjust. Thanks, Hercules

The Teams surface is mostly boilerplate: Bot Framework registration, app manifest, adaptive card result formatting. The real design question is how you wire the data sources. One hardcoded query per source works for a demo; a pluggable connector interface is what makes the bot maintainable when you need to add a second source in three months. I'd structure it as a base connector interface with a first-pass implementation against your primary data source, a Bot Framework activity handler for the search intent, and a complete Teams app manifest. Adaptive Cards for results so they render correctly across desktop and mobile Teams clients. The connector abstraction means adding a second source later is a config change, not a rewrite. Deliverable: a fully registered Teams bot with working search, one production-ready data source connector, deployment artifacts (ARM template or zip deploy), and a short doc on wiring additional sources. Three days, $220 as a single milestone. What is the primary data source you are searching against?

You want a Teams bot that looks up an IP or hostname in Excel Online and replies with the asset owner and location, built entirely by you over screen-share so no real data ever leaves your laptop. That privacy-first approach is the right call, and it shapes how I'd run the session. Here's how the live call would go: 1. We format your 5-row fake Excel sheet with clean column headers (Hostname, IP, Owner, Location) so Power Automate can match on it reliably. 2. I walk you through building the Copilot Studio topic in Teams that captures what the user types and passes it to a Power Automate flow. 3. We wire the flow to search Excel Online, then format a clean reply, including the "Sorry, that IP or Computer Name was not found" fallback for bad input. I've built lookup-and-reply systems on top of spreadsheet and database data many times, and I'm good at explaining each click in plain language with no jargon. Done = you type a fake IP on the call and the bot returns the right row, then I show you how to swap in your real sheet after we hang up. Budget works at $162 over 7 days, with the live build itself in a single focused session. Do you want exact-match lookup only, or should the bot also handle partial hostname searches? P.S. One thing to set early: have your Excel file saved in SharePoint or OneDrive, not on the local disk. Power Automate's Excel connector only reads cloud-hosted files, and that trips up most first builds. Waqar

Hi I can guide you step by step over a live screen-share session to build the Microsoft Teams search bot using Copilot Studio, Power Automate, and Excel Online without needing access to your real company data. I have experience with Microsoft automation, Teams bots, Power Automate workflows, Excel-based lookup systems, chatbot logic, and user-friendly handover training. Your approach of using a fake test spreadsheet first is the right way to protect sensitive company information while still building and validating the workflow. During the session, I will walk you through formatting the Excel table correctly, creating the Copilot Studio bot, capturing the IP address or hostname entered by the staff member, connecting the bot to a Power Automate flow, searching the Excel table, returning the matching asset details, and handling cases where no match is found. I will keep the instructions simple and practical, showing exactly where to click and what to enter. By the end of the session, you should have a working Teams bot tested with fake data, plus clear guidance on how to replace the fake sheet with your real asset list safely afterward. Best, Justin
