How to migrate from Bot SDK 4.3 to Azure Bot Service

Question

Hello,

We are currently trying to migrate our code from old Azure Bot Service with Bot Channel Registration and App Service to new Azure Bot Service with Azure Bot and App Service.

I have received these steps from Genie in azure support,

You can migrate from Bot SDK 4.3 to Bot SDK 4.13 by following the below steps:

1. Update the Bot Builder NuGet package to the latest version.
2. Update the Bot Framework SDK version in the .csproj file.
3. Update the Bot Framework SDK version in the appsettings.json file.
4. Update the Bot Framework SDK version in the Startup.cs file.
5. Update the Bot Framework SDK version in the bot.js file.
6. Update the Bot Framework SDK version in the web.config file.

I have completed first step updating nuget package, but i do not see SDK version in .csproj file and appsettings.json file.

@Ranjan Jha, Vikash Both the versions seem to be very old 4.13 release is from April 2021 and 4.3 from March 2019.

I would recommend to raise an issue on the botbuilder .net SDK repo to seek the correct migration path from the SDK team of your existing bot.
