Access existing bot in Teams

[mminervini]

Hello,

I created a bot prior to the latest update in my web browser. Now that I can integrate bots directly into teams, how do I import that bot? When I add the Power VA app in teams, it does not show under My Chatbots. Do I need to recreate it?

Hi @mminervini ,

Unfortunately, you need to recreate it.

Spoiler

You can only see bots in the version of Power Virtual Agents where you created them.
This means if you create a bot with the Power Virtual Agents app in Microsoft Teams, you will not see the bot in the web app of Power Virtual Agents at https://powerva.microsoft.com.

Thank you for the inquiry.  Currently PVA Teams app does not show bots created in PVA web portal, so you cannot modify the same bot in Microsoft Teams.  If your need is to distribute the bot you built in PVA portal into Microsoft Teams, you can definitely do so without creating a new bot.  Learn more on how to add a bot to Teams here:
