[Bug]

[clearab]

Describe the bug
When using:
var requestor = teamsContext.AsTeamsChannelAccount(turnContext.Activity.From);
The resulting TeamsChannelAccount object doesn't have any of the Teams specific information added. For example
request.UserPrincipalName is always null
request.Surname is also always null

SDK Version
4.0.0-beta1

Expected behavior
Those properties should be populated

[RamjotSingh]

This is as expected. From field sends user's Id, user's AADObjectId and name.

[clearab]

Then how do you populate the rest of the Teams properties in resulting TeamsChannelAccount object?

[clearab]

Doing something like:

var roster = teamsContext.GetConversationParametersForCreateOrGetDirectConversation(turnContext.Activity.From).Members;
List<TeamsChannelAccount> rosterTC = roster.ToList().ConvertAll(member =>
  {
    return teamsContext.AsTeamsChannelAccount(member);
  });

Also results in nulls

[RamjotSingh]

If you want extended information about the user, one option is to get it through Microsoft Graph. You will need additional approval from user or tenant admin for it though.

[clearab]

Then what is the purpose of that method? It seems to add no additional information to the default ChannelAccount object, just a bunch of properties that are always null?

[RamjotSingh]

GetConversationMembersAsync should have that information filled up.

[clearab]

Can you add an example of that? I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get a fully hydrated TeamsChannelAccount object

@RamjotSingh I'm experiencing this bug as well... Any solution available yet?

Same problem here. :/
