No secret automatically generated after bot resource creation

Rodrigo Salazar Vega 1

Hello, I'm currently following a guide in order to deploy a chatbot from SAP Conversation AI Chatbot to Microsoft Teams.

The problem occurs at the moment of retrieving the secret from my bot resource group. The guide indicates that after creating the bot resource, a secret should be automatically generated, but it does not happen in my case. I have already tried giving myself access policies and selecting: Key, Secret & Certificate Management. But after doing so, it still appears that there's no secret or whatsoever.

I also tried creating a secret myself from the key vault, but after testing the bot with that configuration I receive the following error:

"There was an error sending this message to your bot: HTTP status code Unauthorized"

Based on what I have found so far, it is because the secret and the Microsoft id app I'm using for the connection parameters are wrong (at least one of them).

I'm new using Azure so I'd appreciate any help in order to solve this issue.

Thanks in advance.

@Rodrigo Salazar Vega I believe you are following the guidance from these steps from SAP documentation.
Are you using the same keyvault that is created while creating the bot to lookup the secrets in the keyvault? I can confirm from my bot that the secrets should be available if the same keyvault is used.

Yes, i am following the guidance from SAP documentation that you are refering to. I did use the same keyvault that is created while creating the bot, but there was no key or secret in it, so i had to create it manually. However, it appears that the connection is not succesful since i am not using the right parameters. I tried doing it again creating the same bot resource, but the problem is still the same.

Thanks in advance for your help.

@Rodrigo Salazar Vega Are you using the same app id as available from this screen after creating the new secret?

Are there any policies set in your subscription that could be limiting the access or creation of secrets in this keyvault during bot creation?
Also, are there any secrets deleted when you click on manage deleted secrets on the Secrets tab?

Yes, i am using the same Microsoft App ID and I have also already checked if there are any secrets deleted and there's none. I'm not really sure if there are any policies in my subscription that limit my access to those secrets, but as far as I know, I shouldn't have this problem.

I'm going to try creating the bot resource once again so as to be sure that I am following the correct steps.

Thanks in advance.
