Insert your fully qualified domain name (with a forward slash "/" appended to the end) between the double forward slashes and the GUID.

    ✔ Access Token

  2. Navigate to the Certificates & secrets. In the Client secrets section, click on "+ New client secret". Add a description (Name of the secret) for the secret and select “Never” for Expires. Click "Add". Once the client secret is created, copy its value, it need to be placed in the appsettings.json.

  1. This step is specific to Teams.

    • Edit the manifest.json contained in the Manifest folder to replace your Microsoft App Id (that was created when you registered your bot earlier) everywhere you see the place holder string <<YOUR-MICROSOFT-APP-ID>> (depending on the scenario the Microsoft App Id may occur multiple times in the manifest.json). Also, replace your Base url wherever you see the place holder string <<YOUR-BASE-URL>>.
    • Zip up the contents of the teamsAppManifest folder to create a manifest.zip
    • Upload the manifest.zip to Teams (in the Apps view click "Upload a custom app")

  2. Update appsettings.json file with Microsoft App Id, App Secret, Tenant Id (from bot created earlier).

  3. Run your app, either from Visual Studio with F5 or using dotnet run in the appropriate folder.
