    Hi Nivedipa, Thanks for the response. Yes, I have already changed the app name under config.local.json but if you can see the attached screenshot when I am triggering the notification it still comes as Newbot-local-debug.Bot

    I've got quite the same problem, somewhere it's a name I had specified but when the conversation starts it changes automatically to (in my case) "bot".
