Hello Power Virtual Agent Community,

I hope you can help please. I'm new to PVA, just created my first one.

I've published the chatbot and posted it to a Microsoft Teams channel. What I'm noticing is in a chat the Chatbot's name is correct, but in each message it shows a GUID rather than the name of the Chatbot.

Any idea why this is happening please and how to fix it?

Thanks very much,

Garry

Hi @GarryPope,

I have seen this a couple of times on these forums. For some people the instructions described in this thread helped out:

Hope this helps a bit?

Hello @Expiscornovus,

Again, thanks for your help.

I had a look at the post and a Microsoft staff member said this was fixed in December 2019, and from what I read it says only bots deployed before the fix needs updating, but I might be wrong. And there are posts from people in 2021 saying they have the same problem. I raised a ticket with Microsoft and will post their reply here.

Thanks very much!
