I useing Microsoft bot composer framework, and I want to change the user's input before it is injected into the bot. Can it be done?
The purpose of the change is to translate the user's input into English, because the language of the user's input is not supported by LUIS.
I was try to access the input in the controller, But I did not find where the input is stored in the existing objects there (like 'Request' or '_bot').
I do not want to do the translation inside the bot, because I want to use the input already for the trigger recognition. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for reaching out. You may be able to implement middleware to translate user inputs. I found a tutorial that may be helpful.
Hi, thanks for your response, The example in this tutorial uses bot SDK. Are you sure it can be implemented with composer too?
Yes, you can extend your bot framework composer using middleware.
