Description

Bots have a wide variety of use cases. Companies use them both to interact with employees as well as internally. Bots can serve as Q/A endpoints, customer service agents, virtual assistants and more. People use Azure Bot Service to host their bots because it offers easy deployment and management as well as tight integration with other Azure tools.

In this challenge lab, you'll be asked to publish a functioning bot to Azure Bot Service. You'll be given a Windows environment that is set up to create and deploy bots, but how you publish your bot to Azure Bot Service is up to you. You'll pass the challenge when the bot responds with any messages on the /api/messages route of the web app it is published to. This is a real environment, meaning you'll have the chance to show practical experience rather than answer questions in a multiple-choice environment.
