Error adding a skill created in Bot Framework Composer

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 13

I've created a skill using Bot Framework Composer 1.3.1.

When I add the skill in PVA, the skill validates, but when I Save it, I get the following message:

Something went wrong while importing your skill. Please try again later.
Diagnostic Trace Id:

 

Any help would be great!

    Just to close the loop...Several days later, after dealing with other fires, I came back to this, and it just worked. I still have no idea what was going wrong originally, but I'm past this issue.

    Thanks for the response @renatoromao .

     

    I have been able to extend my PVA bot great with Composer Dialogs, however, I want the Composer Dialog to return me where I left in PVA, much like a Power Automate Action. I'm hoping skills will accomplish this.

     

    I have successfully published the skill to Azure, and am trying to use it in PVA.

     

    Thanks!

    Hi @craiglarrabee ,

     

    Are you trying to publish your Bot Framework Composer as a skill?

    You need to follow this documentation here: Use Bot Framework Composer with chatbots - Power Virtual Agents | Microsoft Docs

     

    Because when you are developing skills inside Bot Framework Composer, you need to publish inside the client and not inside the PVA
