description	Use when: building or debugging Office 365 Groups connector flows in a Power Apps Code App, including group listing, membership, events, or openGroupsHttpRequest.

Office 365 Groups Connector Guide

Do not use CLI PAC commands to get connecctor models or services, use codeApp/dist/connectors/office365groups.js as the repo source of truth.

power.config.json

Always read the current power.config.json before editing it.

Ensure "id": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_office365" exists.

"connectionReferences": {
  "office365groups": {
    "id": "/providers/Microsoft.PowerApps/apis/shared_office365groups",
    "displayName": "Office 365 Groups",
    "dataSources": [
      "office365groups"
    ],
    "authenticationType": null,
    "sharedConnectionId": null,
    "dataSets": {}
  }
}

Rules for editing power.config.json:

• Preserve existing keys such as sharedConnectionId, authenticationType, and other working connection metadata.
• If the app uses Dataverse environment variables, also load the environment-variables skill.

Core Rule

Prefer the exported helper layer instead of wiring raw connector operations directly in app code.

Action Helper Surface

• callGroupsOperation(operationName, parameters)
• openGroupsHttpRequest(options)
• listMyGroups(options)
• listOwnedGroups(options)
• listGroups(options)
• listGroupMembers(groupId, options)
• addMemberToGroup(userUpn, groupId)
• removeMemberFromGroup(userUpn, groupId)
• createGroupEvent(groupId, options)
• updateGroupEvent(eventId, options, groupId)
• deleteGroupEvent(eventId, groupId)
• listDeletedGroups()
• restoreDeletedGroup(groupId)
• listDeletedGroupsByOwner(userId)

Latest Action Defaults

• listMyGroups({ version: 1|2|3 }) routes to ListOwnedGroups, ListOwnedGroups_V2, or ListOwnedGroups_V3.
• listGroups(...) supports $filter, $top, skipToken, nextLink, and skip aliases.
• createGroupEvent(...) defaults to CreateCalendarEventV2.
• deleteGroupEvent(...) uses CalendarDeleteItem_V2.
• openGroupsHttpRequest(...) can target HttpRequest or HttpRequestV2 through version, useV2, or operationName.

HTTP Escape Hatch

openGroupsHttpRequest(...) maps friendly inputs to connector fields:

• uri -> Uri
• method -> Method
• body -> Body
• contentType -> ContentType
• customHeaders[0..4] -> CustomHeader1..5

Use this only when no helper exists for the action you need.

Debugging

• Keep helper names stable and widen alias support instead of adding another parallel wrapper.
• If group pagination fails, pass skipToken or nextLink, not a raw $skip query.
• If HTTP requests fail, verify you are sending connector-style fields through openGroupsHttpRequest(...).
