Why isn't Action.Execute including Input Values when operating within a channel?

Ryan Fowler 50

I have the following Adaptive Card:

{
  contentType: "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive",
  content: {
    type: "AdaptiveCard",
    version: "1.5",
    body: [
      {
        type: "Input.Text",
        id: "someText",
        value: "1",
        maxLength: 100,
      }
    ],
    actions: [
      {
        type: "Action.Submit",
        title: "Submit",
        id: "submit",
        verb: "submit",
        data: {"action": "submit"},
      },
      {
        type: "Action.Execute",
        title: "Execute",
        id: "execute",
        verb: "execute",
        data: {"action": "execute"}
      }
    ],
}

If I click either button in personal chat with a bot, the bot receives a value for someText as I'd expect.

In a Team Channel, I receive someText with the Action.Submit action, but not with the Action.Execute button. Action.Execute was working a few weeks ago.

How do I use the Action.Execute action type and also receive Input values from the Card?

Thanks for raising your issue. Could you please let us know if there is any console error you were getting?

Hi, this issue started occurring for me yesterday. Testing 5 days ago was fine but all of a sudden the Teams app does not include data from associated inputs when action.execute is called from a card in a team post. The card in personal chat of the app works fine.

You can see the difference in the data sent in the invoke requests where the card contains an input.text field with id "response"

//extract from request payload from personal app chat
"value": {
    "action": {
        "type": "Action.Execute",
        "title": "Action.Execute",
        "data": {
            "ticket_id": 123,
            "response": "hi"
        },
        "verb": "response"
    },
    "trigger": "manual"
}
//extract from request payload from team channel post
"value": {
    "action": {
        "type": "Action.Execute",
        "title": "Action.Execute",
        "data": {
            "ticket_id": 123
        },
        "verb": "response"
    },
    "trigger": "manual"
}

@Prasad-MSFT I don't see any console errors. The payload of the request from the client does not include the Input values, so this seems to be a client problem.

{
  "value": {
    "action": {
      "type": "Action.Execute",
      "id": "execute",
      "title": "Execute",
      "data": {
        "action": "execute"
      },
      "verb": "execute"
    },
    "trigger": "manual",
    "source": "buttonClick"
  },
  "conversation": {
    "id": "19:3ABV60vJwOjMRkJfXbPMuawvUbDPemJ-Sb5vvqr52-Y1@thread.tacv2;messageid=1685626533506"
  },
  "clientMessageId": "11539288312272178503",
  "serverMessageId": "1685626554119",
  "messageType": "RichText/Media_Card",
  "name": "adaptiveCard/action",
  "imdisplayname": "Admin",
  "complianceData": {
    "action": {
      "type": "Action.Execute",
      "title": "Execute"
    }
  }
}

After 2 months of it not working, this is now working for me.

This issue has already been fixed. Adaptive card in Ms Teams now returns input field data using Action.Execute "value": { "action": { "type": "Action.Execute", "id": "execute", "title": "Execute", "data": { "action": "execute", "someText": "qwerty" }, "verb": "execute" }, "trigger": "manual" }, Tested in MS Teams desktop (Microsoft Teams Version 1.6.00.20958) and web client.

I have raised an issue on github: https://github.com/OfficeDev/TeamsFx/issues/9223

Hopefully Microsoft are more responsive there.
