How to integrate IBM Watson Assistant into Microsoft Teams. I have registered a bot in Azure Portal and assume that I need to go via Bot Framework. I have a Watson Assistant bot already set up.

Hello @Karina O'Neill ,
Have you added Microsoft Teams as a channel in your bot? Please have a look at create a bot for Microsoft Teams documentation. Please share the error/query if you are blocked at some point.
Thanks
Hello,
Any updates on this issue? Is query got resolved?
Thanks
Hi,
I spoke with both IBM and Microsoft support.
The issue was that there is not yet middleware support for v2 of Watson Assistant to integrate to other bot channels. Yes I had already added Microsoft Teams as a channel to my bot in Microsoft bot framework, but it needs to be v1 of Watson Assistant in order to integrate Watson Assistant. So the solution is either to adapt the middleware myself (it's not a priority of IBM), wait until v2 support comes, or downgrade my assistant to v1.
