Inline video upload giving 401

Luciano Domínguez 0

Hi all!
So I'm developing a bot using bot framework and C#. I have successfully implemented upload for attached files and inline images as done in the bot-file-upload teams example. Up until then, everything working perfectly, even getting the bearer token from bot framework to get the inline images. The issue comes when trying to get an inline video. In this case, I don't get the ContentType for video but instead a 'text/html' ContentType and some html in the Content:

<p><img alt="Media" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.skype.com/AMSImage" src="https://eu-api.asm.skype.com/v1/objects/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/views/imgo" width="1330" height="1767"></p>

<p>

<video src="https://eu-api.asm.skype.com/v1/objects/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/views/video" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.skype.com/AMSVideo" width="256" height="144" data-duration="PT10S" alt="Media">

</video> </p>
(The video id was changed for privacy reasons)

So in my code I get the url from the video src="" and do a GET call with the same bearer token I use for images but get a 401. Also tried without this token just to continue getting the same 'forbidden' error code.

Is there a different approach I should follow? Has anyone else encountered this same issue?

Thank you!

Hi Luciano,

To address the issue, you are facing with getting a 401 error when trying to retrieve an inline video in your bot developed using Bot Framework and C#, it seems like the problem lies in the authentication and authorization process when accessing the video content. The error indicates that the request is unauthorized, which could be due to the way you are handling the authentication for video content compared to images.

Here are some steps to resolve the issue:

Ensure that you are handling the authentication for video content in a similar way to how you are handling it for images.

Double-check that the bearer token you are using for accessing the video content is valid and has the necessary permissions.

Double-check the configuration of your bot in the Bot Framework portal, especially regarding the permissions and settings related to accessing media content. Ensure that the bot has the necessary permissions to retrieve inline videos.

Thanks for your response @Dinesh Rajagoni (Tata Consultancy Services Limi) currently I'm using the same function for both cases:
var token = await new MicrosoftAppCredentials(botConfig.ClientId, botConfig.ClientSecret).GetTokenAsync();

client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", token);

var responseMessage = await client.GetAsync(attachment.ContentUrl);

But as stated, it only works with images
