    I don't think the new authoring canvas has rolled out to all regions yet. But I couldn't find any specific reference to when it would be available.

    Hi Pstork1,
    is there any rest api for migrating pva classic bot to new authoring canvas instead of using pva portal.

    There is no REST API that I'm aware of. It is completely dependent on whether the feature has rolled out to your region. As I said, I don't think its available in your region yet.

    Hi @goutham010@Pstork1,

     

    The new unified authoring canvas has rolled out to all regions and to GCC.

    Only GPT-based capabilities like Copilot and Generative Answers are still restricted to the U.S. region for now.

    Also, unified authoring isn't available for PVA for Teams chatbots.

     

    You should be able to migrate any PVA web app chatbot to the unified authoring canvas.

    Guidance is available here: Unified authoring canvas migration guidance - Power Virtual Agents | Microsoft Learn

    Hi Henry,

     

    When does this unified authoring will be available for PVA for Teams chatbots. I have one Classic Bot running internally for helpdesk and require to migrate soon. Trying to convert but it is greyed-out.

    Hi @Azfar959 

     

    We don't have an ETA for this yet.
