"Bot framework composer" doesn't appear on topic page in PVA

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 4

Hi,

I'm new in PVA and need to use bot framework composer.
I even installed bot framework composer on my machine (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/composer/install-composer?tabs=linux) but it still doesn't appear in Power Virtual Agents.

 

I have the trial version of PVA.
When I log in it tells me that bot framework composer has been moved in the new topic menu (I'm from France)

But when I click on the menu "Bot framework composer" doesn't appear. I just can create a new topic from zero.

What to do ?

 

I have the same question (0)

    Hi @Louisa ,

     

    We have an important note within the documentation:

    Bot Framework Composer integration is not available to users who only have the Teams Power Virtual Agents license. You must have a trial or full Power Virtual Agents license.

    Can you confirm which license are you using?

    As I am facing the same issue while creating topic in virtual agent, bot framework composer is visible.

    But while creating topic in virtual agent preview, it doesn`t seem to be the case.

    Hi @MuhammadUzair00,

     

    This is expected: the unified authoring canvas no longer offers extensibility using the Bot Framework Composer.

    Instead, you can use modern alternatives without having to use composer.

    Are there any gaps you've identified? More features will come to the unified authoring canvas in the upcoming weeks, as it hits General Availability.

     

    This will help map legacy Bot Framework Composer feature with modern equivalents:
