I want to create an interaction based on the Emojis passed from facebook user on chatbot. Not able to get anything related to parsing the value at BOT end. Chatbot solution with normal text is working fine.

Telegram has a premium subscription that allows you to write a message and add to the text (important! not separately, like stickers, but specifically to the text). Is it possible to do something similar with the Telegram API?
I looked in the documentation and found only https://core.telegram.org/api/animated-emojis#emoji-reactions, there were animated reactions to messages, sending animated emoji like stickers, but not what I seem to need.
Animated emoji are a "premium" feature of Telegram and so far bots can't use them. The documentation that you linked is part of the "Telegram API", i.e. the API that user clients like your mobile Telegram app use. The documentation of the Telegram Bot API is here: https://core.telegram.org/bots/api. It does not indicate in any way that bots are able to use the emoji.

I'm searching for knowledge sharing on how to connect a 3D avatar with a bot.
Something like done on Bot Libre https://www.botlibre.com/forum-post?id=682689 .
The implementation can be on WPF, UWP or web.
I'm currently working with Botframework V4.7 and C#.
Thanks in advance,

This will likely require you to build a custom connector to pass your bot's incoming and outgoing activities thru to the Bot Libre system. There are examples out there of connectors/adapters that have been built by 3rd parties, such as this Twilio WhatsApp adapter, this Twitter adapter, or this Alexa adapter if you are planning on building in C#.
Any adapter you build won't need to be as full fledged as these are as you are only designing for what you know you need, and not for the masses.
You will also need to research Bot Libre to see which API endpoints might be relevant to you. You can see a listing of APIs here. Really, this holds true for any service like Bot Libre that you decide to land on.
Hope of help!
It depends on the Channel your bot is deployed on and what does the channel supports. For example if your bot is deployed in Facebook Messenger, you can achieve this by creating a web page that renders a 3D Avatar and using Bot Framework you can send a web_url button from which the user will press and the web page will open up inside of messenger with the rendered avatar.
I have developed a FAQ Bot using C# and Bot Builder SDK 3.15.3. We have a large set of question/answer pairs which are uploaded to a QNA Maker Service. I have enabled the Direct Line Channel and the bot is displayed on a web page. I have used the Web Chat control provided by Microsoft with some customization and skinning.
Now I want to enable voice interaction with the bot, for that I decided to use the Microsoft Speech to Text Cognitive Service.
What I want to do is that when ever user speaks some utterance, I want to send the utterance to my bot service similar to like text is sent. Then inside C# code I want to run the Speech to Text and further do a Spell Check on the text retrieved and finally send to QNA Maker Service. The response for now will only be showed as text, but can also opt to read the response for the user.
Kindly guide my how this is achievable, as after looking at CognitiveService.js and other articles on enabling speech, I notice that Web Chat control directly sends the voice input to speech to text service.
You can make a hybrid between a calling bot which utilizes speech to text and a QnA bot to achieve your goal. For the calling bot, look over the SimpleIVRbot sample to get you going. For QnAMaker, you can reference the SimpleQnABot. It shouldn't take too much work bridging the two into a single unified bot. Just be sure to remove duplicate code and combine files where necessary.

I am working on a Skype bot, using Microsoft's Bot Framework.
I have an external website, where a user can create an account, obtaining a userID. I would like to have a button on my website that allows me to link their account to a Skype conversation.
The only way I can work it at the moment is by having the Skype bot ask for the user's email, then the user has to go onto the website and confirm that that was them on Skype. Not a good UX.
I know Telegram lets you do what I want with "deep linking", and Kik can do it by scanning QR codes. Facebook Messenger can do it by including the Facebook JSSDK in the page with a "Connect to this bot" button.
Is there any way to do this on Skype?
Use the "Sign-in Card" workflow to have your users authenticate with your website before proceeding with the Skype bot conversation.
The Sign-in card enables a bot to request that a user sign-in. It typically contains text and one or more buttons that the user can click to initiate the sign-in process.
For documentation and code example, see:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/bot-framework/dotnet/bot-builder-dotnet-add-rich-card-attachments#add-a-sign-in-card-to-a-message
Blog article showing sign-in card walk-through:

Use individual deep link mechanism for each bot (e.g. telegram) that you wish to implement.

This is the only way so far for Skype.
I'm building a chatbot that will need to be launched on Kik, Facebook, and Slack. I'm unsure of where to start in terms of using a bot framework or whether I should create something custom myself.
I don't believe I will need any NLP. The user is going to be pushed down a very structured path, that will use buttons to guide the users to the next prompts and will also share with the user links and media.
Microsoft Bot Framework seems like the main framework I should look at, but its unclear to me how useful it will be if I end up wanting to deliver responses that are custom to each messaging platform. Meaning, on Facebook I may want to take advantage of a custom feature that they have like buttons or templates and on Kik I will want to take advantage of suggested keyboards.
Any suggestions or guidance is appreciated.
BotFramework will do the translation for you. Write to the BotFramework schema and it will using buttons for Facebook and keyboards for Kik.
