Posted on by MarcHer

I have a simople bot which gets Data From a flow and Builds an Adaptive Card and send the Card to the user. This is working fine if i test the Bot on a website or in the PVA Site. If i connect the pva bot to Teams this fails, the card is not displayed.

I followed the basic steps here:

Use Bot Framework Composer adaptive cards in chatbots - Power Virtual Agents | Microsoft Learn

This is my card in Bot Composer:

# adaptivecardjson_meals(location)
- ```
{
 "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json",
 "type": "AdaptiveCard",
 "version": "1.1",
 "body": [
 {
 "type": "ColumnSet",
 "columns": [
 {
 "type": "Column",
 "width": 5,
 "items": [
 {
 "type": "Image",
 "altText": "", 
 "url": "https://bilderspeicher01.blob.core.windows.net/bilder/mittagessen_tp.png",
 "size": "Medium"
 },
 {
 "type": "TextBlock",
 "text": "Gericht",
 "size": "ExtraLarge"
 }
 ]
 },
 {
 "type": "Column",
 "width": 1,
 "items": [
 {
 "type": "Container",
 "height": "stretch"
 },
 {
 "type": "TextBlock",
 "text": "Preis",
 "size": "ExtraLarge",
 "horizontalalignment": "right"
 }
 ],
 "height": "stretch"
 }
 ]
 },
 ${location}
 ]
}
```
# AdaptiveCardMeals(location)
[Activity
 Attachments = ${json(adaptivecardjson_meals(location))}
]
# SendActivity_BjdYcR()
- ${AdaptiveCardMeals(virtualagent.user_city)}
# SendActivity_PCTrcP()
[Activity
 Text = ${SendActivity_PCTrcP_text()}
]

# SendActivity_PCTrcP_text()
- Alles klar ich schaue mal was in der Küche los ist...
# SendActivity_vGGQJz()
[Activity
 Text = ${SendActivity_vGGQJz_text()}
]

# SendActivity_vGGQJz_text()
- Ich hoffe du findest etwas passendes :)
# SendActivity_7rDEFK()
- ${virtualagent.user_city}

This is my Dialog in Composer:

Testing in PVA works fine:

In Teams it stops after showing the output (for debugging reason) and nothing more happens:

can anybody help?

Am I reading this correctly in that the 'location' variable you're sending in is the additional JSON needed to add the individual menu items for that location? if so, it looks like that JSON is being output as text instead. Just wanting to make sure I'm interpreting your above information correctly. If so, I assume if you remove:
, ${location}
that the static content above that line renders fine in Teams?

Hey,

yes i pass the menues with the variable to the static content. I did some further testing:

The red square is just the variable content which renders fine in teams:
The green square is an example out of bot composer:
> To learn more Adaptive Cards format, read the documentation at > https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/adaptive-cards/getting-started/bots - ```{ "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json", "version": "1.2", "type": "AdaptiveCard", "body": [ { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "default text", "weight": "bolder", "isSubtle": false } ] }```

Which also renders fine in teams:

And the orange square is just the static code of the card without the content of the variable:

- ```{ "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json", "version": "1.4", "type": "AdaptiveCard", "body": [ { "type": "ColumnSet", "columns": [ { "type": "Column", "width": 5, "items": [ { "type": "Image", "altText": "", "url": "https://bilderspeicher01.blob.core.windows.net/bilder/mittagessen_tp.png", "size": "Medium" }, { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Gericht", "size": "ExtraLarge" } ] }, { "type": "Column", "width": 1, "items": [ { "type": "Container", "height": "stretch" }, { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Preis", "size": "ExtraLarge", "horizontalalignment": "right" } ] } ] } ] }```

Which doesnt get rendered 😞

I dont have a clue at the moment 😞

Best regards
Marc
