InvalidChannelIdError

This error occurs when the specified channel ID provided in the Snap is invalid or does not exist.

Ensure that the channel ID you provided in the Snap is correct and corresponds to an existing channel in your Microsoft Teams workspace.

Channel does not exist or archived

This error occurs when attempting to send a message to an archived channel, which is read-only and does not allow new messages.

Choose an active, non-archived channel as the recipient for the message or consider unarchiving the channel if necessary.
