In one of my requirement I have to reference platform_embed.js file in SharePoint Framework WebPart to display the yammer feeds. But the platform_embed.js file is not available in npm and typings are also not available.

Solution

As the TypeScript typings is not available for yammer platform_embed.js file, we can’t use import * as yammer from the external settings. Instead, we should use require(‘yammer’).

Also yam is a global object, so we have to change the way we reference it to (window as any).yam.connect.embedFeed() instead of (yam as any).connect.embedFeed()

Thank you Waldek Mastykarz for this suggestion.
