MS Teams and adaptive Cards

Rasa Open Source
1

Hello,

i just did try to send a simple adaptive card to MS Teams. I did try the following way:

  1. action Server

class Welcome(Action): def name(self) → Text: return “action_welcome”

async def run(
    self,
    dispatcher: CollectingDispatcher,
    tracker: Tracker,
    domain: Dict[Text, Any],
) -> List[EventType]:

    message ={ "type": "AdaptiveCard",  "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json",  "version": "1.3", "body": [{  "type": "TextBlock", "text": "New TextBlock","wrap": True }]}

    dispatcher.utter_message(json_message = message)
    return []

which ends up with the error: 2021-07-13 17:04:33 INFO root - Rasa server is up and running. 2021-07-13 17:04:51 ERROR rasa.core.channels.botframework - Exception when trying to handle message.‘str’ object has no attribute ‘setdefault’

Is there any working example of MS Teams cards in action Server?

content of the message send to MS Teams: {‘type’: ‘AdaptiveCard’, ‘$schema’: ‘http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json’, ‘version’: ‘1.3’, ‘body’: [ {‘type’: ‘TextBlock’, ‘text’: ‘New TextBlock’, ‘wrap’: True}], ‘recipient’: {‘id’: ‘xxxg’}, ‘from’: {‘id’: ‘2xxx2’, ‘name’: ‘xxxTest’}, ‘channelData’: {‘notification’: {‘alert’: ‘true’}}, ‘text’: ‘’}

correct code:

class Welcome(Action): def name(self) → Text: return “action_welcome”

async def run(
    self,
    dispatcher: CollectingDispatcher,
    tracker: Tracker,
    domain: Dict[Text, Any],
) -> List[EventType]:


    newmessage = {
      "attachments": [
        {
          "contentType": "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive",
          "content": {
            "type": "AdaptiveCard",
            "version": "1.0",
            "body": [
              {
                "type": "TextBlock",
                "text": "Hello World!",
                "size": "large"
              },
              {
                "type": "TextBlock",
                "text": "*Sincerely yours,*"
              },
              {
                "type": "TextBlock",
                "text": "Adaptive Cards",
                "separation": "none"
              }
            ],
            "actions": [
              {
                "type": "Action.OpenUrl",
                "url": "http://adaptivecards.io",
                "title": "Learn More"
              }
            ]
          }
        }
      ]
    }
    dispatcher.utter_message(json_message = newmessage)


    return []

Hi Sven, please help out with an issue! Been stuck for over days now! In the same code you shared, if I create buttons using “type”: “Action.Submit”. Then how am I supposed to attach respective intent(s) to the buttons, so that next action can be triggered! For more clarification on this, refer to the link to my query:

Please suggest! You would really help a lot!

intents are done with the following syntax /intent

Where do I attach this syntax- /intent, in the “newmessage”! Can you please correct my code and send the same back to me! Really grateful to you for reaching back! Appreciate your time, @dx111ge !

newmessage = {
      "attachments": [
        {
          "contentType": "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive",
          "content": {
            "type": "AdaptiveCard",
            "version": "1.0",
            "body": [
              {
                "type": "TextBlock",
                "text": "Please select your choice!"
              }
            ],
            "actions": [
              {
                    "type": "Action.Submit",
                    "title": "Button1"                             # Where to attach "/intent1" ?
                },
                {
                    "type": "Action.Submit",
                    "title": "Button2"                      # Where to attach "/intent2" ?
                       
                }
            ]
          }
        }
      ]
    }
    dispatcher.utter_message(json_message = newmessage)


    return []

{ “type”: “Action.Submit”, “title”: “abbrechen”, “data”: { “msteams”: { “type”: “imBack”, “value”: “/restart” } }, “style”: “positive” }
