The Microsoft Bot Builder SDK is one of three main components of the Microsoft Bot Framework. The Microsoft Bot Framework provides just what you need to build and connect intelligent bots that interact naturally wherever your users are talking, from text/sms to Teams, Slack, Office 365 mail and other popular services.

Hi guys, i've a question regarding bot framework sdk for java.
I have a problem with loading jackson modules for objectmapper, that results following exception:
Java 8 date/time type `java.time.OffsetDateTime` not supported by default: add Module "com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype:jackson-datatype-jsr310" to enable handling (through reference chain: com.microsoft.bot.schema.Activity["timestamp"])
of course the dep is in the classpath.
I did some debugging and problem is with classloader and thread that handles the async request. Bot-X thread that handles the async request has a diffrerent classloader then the request thread http-nio-PORT-exec-X.
Can somebody help me resolve that please?

Does anyone have a pointer on how to integrate IBM's Watson Assistant into Microsoft Teams? I assume it is via Microsoft's Azure Bot Framework, so I have completed the step of setting up a bot in Azure Portal. I have also set up an assistant with IBM Watson Assistant.
I started to try the Watson middleware for connecting to the bot framework, but V2 of Watson Assistant does not have the required
workspace_id anymore. https://github.com/watson-developer-cloud/botkit-middleware#configure-your-assistantThanks.
Hi Folks. Are the new "Sequential Workflows for Adaptive Cards" officially supported using Bot Framework SDK for Python?
"Adaptive Cards now support Sequential Workflows that are updated on user action. Using Sequential Workflows, Adaptive Cards are updated on user action and user can progress through a series of cards that require user input. Action.Execute supports Sequential Workflows, which allows bot developers to return Adaptive Cards in response to a user action."

I'm using Python and I've followed the tutorial given here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/bot-service-quickstart-create-bot?view=azure-bot-service-4.0&tabs=python%2Cvs
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/channel-connect-teams?view=azure-bot-service-4.0 Why?? I'm trying the integration as an App but is not workin.
Hello, I would like to know how the communication between Teams Bot and Azure Bot Service (where the messaging endpoint is set) is secured ? Is it secured somehow by default ?
When you connect your bot with the Teams channel the endpoint to use it is like https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=28:9bc78230-d5ee-43fb-87a8, It's an https but I can't see more
Hi guys, I'm using Teams App Studio to develop a bot using webhooks does this include any extra costs? I did not found anything about costs in docs
I think that the Teams App are published in your Teams tenant and It's for free.

Hi all, building a bot (.NET Core SDK v4) with MS Teams Channel, where corporate Azure Network does not allow MS Teams SaaS to connect Azure Bot Service directly due to network settings. Trying to implement a Proxy API on API Gateway for MS Teams to consume and pass the request to Azure Bot Service.
- Is this a valid option? How should we configure the communication from Azure Bot Service to MS Teams (ie. bot sends a message to user) Does MS Teams app polls the API or websocket etc. connection created between Azure Bot Service and MS Teams, which can't be replicated through API Gateway?
This requires importing OpenAPI Spec of the Azure Bot SDK. Is there any OpenSpec definition? Using .NET SDK and Swagger to generate OpenAPI document from existing API project generates below document, which is having error while importing it from API Gateway.

The only thing you need to be aware of is the Azure Bot Service connector expect the bot to respond within 15 secs. While your API call may typically respond well within that time frame, the best practice is to not wait on the API response in order for the bot to respond. If there was ever a delay (network latency, server is slow to respond, etc.) then this "long running" process will result in a timeout error. To avoid this, have your bot respond immediately to the user's request with something like "the request is being processed" and, once the response is returned then send the response using a proactive message. The BotBuilder-Samples repo has a sample, 16.proactive-messages, that is available in all supported languages.
1.0.10 and also lists a dependency on botkit 4.15.0. Both of these package versions are not on NPM and the versions that are on NPM are two years old: botkit 4.10 and botbuilder-adapter-webex 1.0.9. So, it errors out on installing the botkit dependency and throws a bunch of warnings and depreciation warnings on dependencies for the Webex adapter. It looks like this is tied to the main mono repo of botkit still showing version 4.10 but I'm purely guessing. I opened this issue under the botkit repo since that's where this adapter lies howdyai/botkit#2203 but I intend to use the Webex Adapter in botbuilder, since that is the preferred package. Can someone point me in the right direction to how we can get these packages updated on NPM?
according to the docs https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/rest-api/bot-framework-rest-connector-api-reference?view=azure-bot-service-4.0#http-status-codes, a 202 means that: The request was accepted for processing.
