Emoji no longer work in Webhook or Graph API

[GitWatin]

Steps to reproduce

Hello,

I'm using Powershell to update my teams status message via Microsoft Graph and command Set-MgUserPresenceStatusMessage

I would like to send emoji in my message and I noticed that emoji character with unicode after 1FXX doesn't work

For exemple with code ▶ it's work

And with code 🏠 (reffering to the house) it doesn't work

Anyone have the same issue ?

$Test = "🏠"

Function CreateTeamsObject {
    Param (
        [string]$message
    )
    $DayDate=Get-Date -Format "yyyy-MM-dd" | Out-String
    $EndDay="T23:59:00"
    $EndOfDay=$DayDate+$EndDay
    $params = @{
        statusMessage = @{
            message        = @{
                content     = $message
                contentType = "text"
            }
            expiryDateTime = @{
                dateTime = $EndOfDay
                timeZone = "Europe/Paris"
            }
        }
    }
    Set-MgUserPresenceStatusMessage -UserId $userId -BodyParameter $params

CreateTeamsObject -message "I am currently at Home $test  <pinnednote></pinnednote>"

Expected behavior

Image displayed as pictures, not code

Actual behavior

Emoji are displayed as number, not picture

Hello @GitWatin - Thanks for raising your query. Could you please conform if it was working previously because it may not be supported?

It is also working with other codes?

Hello @ChetanSharma-msft

Yes it work in the past. I found some topics on StackOverFlow regarding this issues. Seems to be since 2 or 3 Teams release version.

I don't try with other code.

Regarding the emoji, I use this list : https://www.unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html

Hi @GitWatin - We tried to repro this issue by sending message having unicode emoji and observed that, emoji character with unicode after 1FXX doesn't work.

For example, emoji with unicode U+2764 works.

{
  "type": "message",
  "attachments": [
    {
      "contentType": "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive",
      "contentUrl": null,
      "content": {
        "type": "AdaptiveCard",
        "$schema": "[http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json"](http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json%22),
        "version": "1.4",
        "body": [
          {
            "type": "TextBlock",
            "wrap": true,
            "text": "Emoji tester: ❤"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
}

However, emoji with unicode U+1F3E0 doesn't work.

{
  "type": "message",
  "attachments": [
    {
      "contentType": "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive",
      "contentUrl": null,
      "content": {
        "type": "AdaptiveCard",
        "$schema": "[http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json"](http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json%22),
        "version": "1.4",
        "body": [
          {
            "type": "TextBlock",
            "wrap": true,
            "text": "Emoji tester: 🏠"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
}

Checked with Microsoft Teams version 24116.2502.2841.3203. The client version is 49/24050218100.
