botbuilder-dotnet | Bot Framework SDK for .NET repository | Bot library

I have written an Ms Teams Bot using the Bot Framework with .Net and I would like to identify the Owner of the Team in which the Bot is installed (e.g. to send them an adaptive card with more privileged features on it, rather than having the whole team see it).

the V4.9 release note of the bot framework states:

The TeamsChannelAccount object has been updated to include userRole (one of owner, member, or guest) and tenantId (for the user's tenantId)

Yet this seems to be incorrect. When using TeamsInfo.GetMemberAsync or TeamsInfo.GetPagedMembersAsync to retrieve member info (which all return the TeamsChannelAccount object mentioned above) the UserRole property only ever shows "user" as the value - never "owner" or otherwise.

How can I identify the owner of the team? Thank you.

I have a bot in C# working with botbuilder-dotnet using the slack-adapter with my workspace. Now I want to install the slack app in other workspaces. How can I configure the adapter to work with multiple workspaces? I think it's around this options in the constructor but couldn't find any examples: https://github.com/microsoft/botbuilder-dotnet/blob/497cb6e5192c85a82478aca475f324dd3afde4cf/libraries/Adapters/Microsoft.Bot.Builder.Adapters.Slack/SlackClientWrapper.cs#L214

We have been using the bot framework for a while now and are very happy with it. We use the stepContext.Parent.CancelAllDialogsAsync() method. This works fine but we want to pass a result or trigger some kind of action in the bot code. We would like to pass a value.

I noticed the optional eventName and eventValue parameters, but I cannot find any way to use them. I found this documentation for the method but the eventName and eventValue are not explained at all. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.bot.builder.dialogs.dialogcontext.cancelalldialogsasync?view=botbuilder-dotnet-stable.

I thought that it would trigger the DialogBot's OnEventActivityAsync method, but it doesn't.

Our use case is as follows: At some point in the conversation our bot asks the user a question. When the user doesn't answer the question multiple times, but instead keeps asking their own question we call CancelAllDialogsAsync. The bot will get back to the MainDialog and wait for user input, so the user will have to ask their question again. We don't want the user to have to ask agian, so we want to cancel all dialogs and go back to the MainDialog passing the users question so the MainDialog can pick a way to answer it.

Any help is appreciated.

I have been following the tutorial (Bot Framework Integrate Composer Into Skill Project) to integrate composer dialogs with a skill project. This includes composer created dialogs which call a skill. I am running into the exception "Value cannot be null. (Parameter 'uriString')" when calling the skill.

I ran into various other issues when setting this up, as outlined here Previous Issues, which have been resolved though I had to do a work around to get the settings to work. I now need to determine why the configuration settings are not resolving.

To recreate the issue use the "skill-setting-issue" branch of the repo Git Repo

Prerequisites

Install Bot Emulator:Bot Emulator Install Instructions

Open the solution file in visual studio Integrate-Composer-Dialog-Using-Skill.sln

Put a breakpoint on line 79 of DefaultAdapter.cs - this is where the error can be seen

Start debugging the project

Open Bot Emulator

Connect to the bot: http://localhost:3978/api/messages

Type "Greeting"

Bot should respond with "Hello, I have recognized that you said greeting" - This means that the composer dialog integration is working as expected.

Type "Skill"

The breakpoint on line 79 of DefaultAdapter.cs should trigger giving details of the error.

The error seems to be occurring because the settings values within Composer-With-Skill.dialog between line 52 & 57 cannot be resolved.

I am working on creating a workflow which allows composer created dialogs to be integrated into a bot skill project.

To accomplish this I am trying to follow the instructions in this post: https://microsoft.github.io/botframework-solutions/skills/handbook/experimental-add-composer/

My composer created dialogs including calling a skill. When I initiate that intent through the Bot Emulator I get this error: System.NullReferenceException: 'Unable to locate SkillConversationIdFactoryBase in HostContext'

The setup to get to this error is time consuming so I have created a git repo which can be started fairly easily to demonstrate the issue.

The project can be found here: https://github.com/silverbulletgt/Integrate-Composer-Dialog-Using-Skill

To recreate the issue:

Prerequisites

Install Bot Emulator: https://github.com/Microsoft/BotFramework-Emulator/blob/master/README.md

Open the solution file in visual studio Integrate-Composer-Dialog-Using-Skill.sln

Put a breakpoint on line 72 of DefaultAdapter.cs - this is where the error can be seen

Start debugging the project

Open Bot Emulator

Connect to the bot: http://localhost:3978/api/messages

Type "Greeting"

Bot should respond with "Hello, I have recognized that you said greeting" - This means that the composer dialog integration is working as expected.

Type "Skill"

The breakpoint on line 72 of DefaultAdapter.cs should trigger giving details of the error.

Error & stack trace can be found here: https://github.com/silverbulletgt/Integrate-Composer-Dialog-Using-Skill/blob/master/Readme/error%20stack%20trace.txt

Edit: I was able to compile the Bot Builder code Bot Builder GitHub & connect it to my project so that I could debug. I found the error to be happening on line 157 of Microsoft.Bot.Builder.Dialogs.Adaptive.BeginSkill.cs code BeginSkill.cs.

This line is trying to get the SkillConversationFactoryBase out of the dialogContext.Context.TurnState. I'm investigating how I might add this so that it is populated when this code executes.

To pass values to some methods, you need to have object, that contains simple type fields.

i.e https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.bot.builder.languagegeneration.templates.evaluate?view=botbuilder-dotnet-stable

Is there way to generate adhoc object and assign simple type (lets say string) to it, without defining a new class?

I have:

I am using Botframework adaptive dialog template (c#). I already obtained a token from a HttpRequest and saved it as a conversation state property conversation.token, now I am trying to use this token to make another API call with HttpRequest. But from the official document of HttpRequest Class, it seems there is no options to add the authentication token. I tried to add the token in the Headers, but did not work, it showed 401 Unauthorized error. How should the authorization be handled in HttpRequest in adaptive dialog?

I am developing a Microsoft Teams bot using Azure Bot service, I have a use case where I need fetch the @mentioned users AAD object Id and use this Id to get other enterprises specific user information. I have tried to use turnContext object's, GetMentions() API which returns Channel Account object, however, the AAD Object property of channel account is empty, though it has an Id property which I believe corresponds to the Bot Service channel's (Microsoft Teams) user.

Given my research, could someone please let me know how to fetch the users AAD object Id or point me to the right documentation?

In the latest bot samples, we can see that bot is being added to services collection as below
