Adaptive Cards and Task Previews

4.4 Adaptive Cards and Task Previews

ACTIONBRIDGE uses Microsoft Teams Adaptive Cards to display rich previews of tasks and comments directly in your Teams channels. This keeps important updates visible without leaving the conversation.

When Are Adaptive Cards Used?

• First Comment on a task can be sent to the linked Teams channel thread as an adaptive card.
• Important updates such as task creation (planned), assignments, or status changes may also use adaptive cards (based on future configuration).
• Users can view task details, assignees, and key metadata directly in Teams.

Card Contents

• Task Title with link to open the task in ACTIONBRIDGE
• Status, Priority, and Due Date shown clearly
• Comment Content from the user who posted it
• Mentioned Users listed for visibility
• “Open Task” Button for direct access

Channel Behavior

• Cards are posted in the channel where the ACTIONBRIDGE tab is linked.
• Replies in the channel thread do not sync back to ACTIONBRIDGE, but help with team visibility.
• Each task gets its own thread (if started with a comment); this helps keep discussions organized.

Tips

• Use the first comment to introduce the task clearly — it's what shows in Teams.
• Encourage teammates to reply in the thread to keep conversation grouped.
• Adaptive Cards are lightweight and optimized for mobile and desktop Teams views.

With Adaptive Cards, ACTIONBRIDGE keeps your team in sync — visually and contextually — right inside the Microsoft Teams environment.
