Hi there,
I'm currently working on a chatbot for a school project, and settled on using Bot Framework Composer for designing and developing the bot. Bot Framework Composer integrates smoothly with both QnAMaker and LUIS, but upon visiting QnAMaker's website, it says that 'Question Answering is now a Generally Available feature offered with Azure Cognitive Service for Language.' I was wondering whether QnAMaker is still being supported, and if there's any way to incorporate the Cognitive Services into Composer, instead of QnAMaker and LUIS.
Thanks in advance!

Joe McLain 6 Reputation points2022-12-05T21:56:55.987+00:00 This is an interesting one and I'm anxious to find out the answer. Per
[Microsoft's documentation][1], we can no longer create QnA Maker resources. I'm guessing that's why my bots fail when I try to build the resources so I can publish them. It would be great if they'd build in the Cognitive Service functionality as the inability to provision resources and publish bots that need QnA / Cognitive Services puts the kabosh on the entire system for now.Thanks to any and all who can find a solution!

2022-12-06T10:00:24.797+00:00 Looking at the available Bot Composer templates, I'm going to assume that Cognitive Services isn't supported just yet, considering all of them require either a QnAMaker instance, or a LUIS instance. Haven't heard anything from the Microsoft Employee that commented on this thread almost 9 months ago either, so I guess they are still working on it.

2022-12-07T16:52:25.63+00:00 Asking a really dumb follow-up for clarification, it seems that until MS releases templates leveraging Cognitive Services it is no longer possible to create new bots that leverage LUIS and / or QnAMaker because provisioning those dependent services has been frozen.
Is that your understanding as well?
Thanks, @sybr š .
