How to add ms bot in kaizala - botframework

I am new to kaizala. Currently, the kaizala is not supported as a channel in ms bot. Just wondering if i can use the directline api but not sure on the kaizala part.
Please help/guide me on this, especially on the kaizala part what exactly I have to do to integrate ms bot with kaizala if somebody have tried this before.

There are a variety of adapters you can use as a reference for building a Kaizala adapter of your own. I don't know which SDK you are using, but if you check out the BotBuilder-Samples repo and navigate to the samples folder you will see examples of how to use some of the official adapters. Once you know what you are looking for you can navigate to the SDK repos (for ex: https://github.com/Microsoft/botbuilder-js) and find the adapter code.
Another source is the BotBuilder-Community repo which has examples of non-official adapters that you can also reference, organized by SDK.
All of these should provide an understanding of how to go about building what you need. I haven't researched Kaizala, at all, but if they provide APIs for connecting to and interacting with their service, then you will want to integrate that into the adapter.
Hope of help!

Microsoft bot framework with Instgram

I was trying to build a bot using Microsoft bot framework and connect it with Instagram but I only found a graph APIs for instagram. can anyone please help & advise?
The BotFramework service only supports specific channels. Anything outside of those channels requires a custom adapter to be constructed to facilitate communication between the bot and the unsupported service. This is typically done by building a custom adapter. There are examples in the botbuilder-community repos that you can use to help design yours. Both the dotnet and JS libraries contains several adapters that you can reference.

How to configure bot framework C# slack adapter to work with multiple workspaces?

I have a bot in C# working with botbuilder-dotnet using the slack-adapter with my workspace. Now I want to install the slack app in other workspaces.
How can I configure the adapter to work with multiple workspaces? I think it's around this options in the constructor but couldn't find any examples: https://github.com/microsoft/botbuilder-dotnet/blob/497cb6e5192c85a82478aca475f324dd3afde4cf/libraries/Adapters/Microsoft.Bot.Builder.Adapters.Slack/SlackClientWrapper.cs#L214
Currently, the Bot Framework does not support multiple workspaces as of 4/22/21.

MS Botbuilder and SMS using Bandwidth.com

I'm developing chatbots on MS botbuilder SDK (4). My new client have requirement to create chatbot that is connected to SMS, I was using twilio earlier for that very well but they using Bandwidth.com, so I would like to know what are my options: as i get it botbuilder SDK dont have out of the box connection to this provider, but maybe I can use directline or other approach somehow?
Another option I see is don't use botbuilder and just develop c# web app using Bandwith API.
And in general I'm interested in how we can connect to custom platforms if it's not web-based?
In order to accomplish this, you have a few options. Here is a couple of possibilities. Hopefully, others can chime in with more options for you.
One option is to build what is referred to internally as a "connector". Essentially you need to translate what bot framework speaks activity into whatever bandwidth.com speaks.
Another option is to build an adapter like this one for Alexa.

Proactive assist bot using microsoft bot framework

I am planning to develop a bot using Microsoft bot framework. The reason for choosing this framework is for integrating it with teams. The bot which i am planning to develop should do a proactive alert like when a ticket gets updated in ITSM platform the user should get notified. Can anyone please help me out with the architecture for building up this bot. Because i could see in some documentation they are suggesting to use Azure functions and Azure storage queues for proactive assist bot. Please assist. I am planning to do this using node.js SDK.
You can read all about proactive messages and how to build them in the Bot Framework documentation. Overall, there is a lot of useful information there on how to build your bot.
You can also reference the blogs and Botbuilder-Samples repo. The repo provides examples you can build and run teaching you what you need to know to get going. It does so in iterations graduating from basic to advanced so you achieve a full understanding.
Best of luck!

How to retrive email from MS Exchange server on Android

I’ve been googling for a couple of days now! I’m looking at a way of integrating simple mail functions into my android app. A few people have suggested looking at K9 which I have done. This is obviously a fully featured mail client and has far more functionality than I need. I wanted to know whether there was a way using Android API's to connect and retrieve mail?
Any responses greatly appreciated!
There are third party API called JWebServices / JWebDAV . As far as I know they both working on Android
Not really, afaik are no Android APIs you can use for this purpose. You could use the ActiveSync protocol to connect to the Exchange server and pull down the email messages you need.
