Hi, 
 
I have a problem with my flow in Power Automate. The whole flow works perfectly when in section "Post message in a chat or channel" I'm posting as Flow Bot, but the moment I change posting option to Power Virtual Agents, I'm getting error called "Bad request". I have no idea what to do with this. 
Important infos:
- Chatbot was published in Copilot Studio
- When I'm testing it posting as "FlowBot", the power automate flow works perfectly, problem occurs only when I'm trying to use bot from copilot studio.
- When I'm testing this on demo website it works as well perfectly.

    Ensure that the Power Virtual Agent bot has the necessary permissions to post in the specific chat or channel. Sometimes, the bot identity might not have the same level of permissions as the Flow Bot.
     
    Check if there’s any restriction based on the channel type. Some bots may have limited access to certain channel configurations or require specific approvals within Teams.
     
    If your Teams environment has strict app permission policies, verify that Power Virtual Agents are allowed to post in chats and channels within Teams.
     
    Thanks.
