I'm trying to develop a bot for my company that retrieves files from a SharePoint folder and sends them via WhatsApp upon request. The thing is, I have zero experience in coding or bot development, and I really need to get this done for work. Also, I can only use Copilot AI due to privacy policies, so what's the simplest way to approach this?

Here's a basic outline for your project:
1. Use Python to create your bot.
2. Structure your project to include a main script and modules for handling SharePoint and WhatsApp interactions. This way, you can keep everything organized!
3. Don't forget to include a config file for your API keys and settings.
This project doesn't seem to have much to do with DevOps, but if you're willing to learn, I suggest starting with Python. Use Copilot to help write your scripts! You can set up a bot that connects to SharePoint using the Microsoft Graph API, fetches the files you need, and sends them through WhatsApp using Twilio's API if it’s allowed.
You might want to consider getting a subscription to a powerful AI like Claude Pro, which could streamline your process significantly!
But remember, you can't use AI tools outside of Copilot because of your privacy policies!
