Got Stuck with instructions for Microsoft Teams #224

Hi,

I've gotten to the part in the instructions where I need to sideload the app, but I can't get the manifest for it.

I created the bot using the instructions labelled 'Create a Bot in Bot Framework' (at https://dev.botframework.com/bots/new) and tested it by inspecting the service bus explorer. All good.

I then got to "You'll need to create a new bot in Microsoft Teams and the easies way to do that is with the App Studio." - open App Studio and: image

Presumably here you'd want to choose "Bot Management", and when I do this I can create a new bot or select an existing one. Selecting the existing one created earlier gives this: image

but, it won't open to edit or download the manifest zip file in order to side load.

The instructions at this point say: "You'll need to create a new bot in Microsoft Teams and the easies way to do that is with the App Studio." ... but the bot was already created with the earlier instructions so things seem a little mixed up. Should I just delete the app created using the first method and redo it using App Studio?

Regards,

Robin

Ok, I think I figured it out. The fact that it says "You'll need to create a new bot in Microsoft Teams and the easies way to do that is with the App Studio." was throwing me. Actually, you need to create a new app and link it to the created bot. I'll make a pull request to tweak the documentation :)
