Thank you very much for sharing good information.

I want to design a template here at kore.ai XO and use it in my msteam channel.
I would really appreciate it if you could tell me how to use it.

The Message Node worked mostly successfully.
But I am getting error on entity node.
Please tell me how to use it in entity node

If the entity type is String, the payload of the buttons is not transmitted well.
If the entity type is Composite
“I’m sorry, I could not proceed due to a server call failure Ok, I am discarding the task for now. We can start over whenever you are ready. Enter a value for .”
The template itself does not come out and the message of the upper level comes out.

thank you

Hi Minkyu.jo,

In the above screenshot, I can see that you are using a dropdown template. For the dropdown template, the MS Teams will emit a JSON object and for that, we need to use the composite entity which is already mentioned in the above documentation. Please refer here.

Thanks & Regards,
A.D.G.Sankar

Hi how we can use above templates i have directly used on plain text and advance but for me not worked i just copy pasted the templates. Can you guide me how we can run any simple template
