Alternative to deploying bots made in the composer

Question

I am having difficulty deploying a bot I have composed in the Bot Composer due to this bug -> https://github.com/microsoft/BotFramework-Composer/issues/3722

I am a bit perplexed on how to deploy this directly not using the composer.

As far as interop between v4 waterfall dialogs, custom code, and Composer built dialogs, see this document describing the process to achieve this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/composer/how-to-add-custom-action

Start by creating all the new Azure resources, and then copy the generated JSON file from the command line and paste it to your Composer publish configuration. We will continue to improve debugging experience in Composer and this effort will be ongoing.
