How to use Power Vitual Agent bot as a skill in a Bot created with .net Bot Framework SDK?

Hongnian Long 10

I created a bot with .net bot framework SDK and I published it to my azure bot service. And I created another simple bot in Power Virtual Agent. I want to use the second bot as a skill in the first bot, is there a way to do that?

I have referred this articles: https://powervirtualagents.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-virtual-agents-bots-as-skills-with-bot-framework-bots-public-preview/ but I don't know how to open my existing .net bot in Bot framework Composer.
Also, in this article, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/composer/quickstart-create-bot-with-azure I can see there's an option to open the bot with Composer, but I can't find this option in my Azure web pages. User's image

@Hongnian Long The composer documentation has a example to migrate SDK first bot to composer but this example uses LUIS integration but new LUIS resources can no longer be created. I think it is easier to create a new bot using composer or PVA rather than migrating SDK bot if you have not implemented the bot in a production environment since the Bot Framework Python and Java SDKs are being retired with final long-term support ending in November 2023.

@romungi-MSFT Thanks for replying. So there's no way to use a PVA bot as a skill in a Bot Framework SDK Bot, right? I will try migrate it.
