Remarks
This method allows you to send an activity to the end of a conversation.
This is slightly different from ReplyToActivity(). * SendToConversation(conversationId) - will append the activity to the end of the conversation according to the timestamp or semantics of the channel. * ReplyToActivity(conversationId,ActivityId) - adds the activity as a reply to another activity, if the channel supports it. If the channel does not support nested replies, ReplyToActivity falls back to SendToConversation.
Use ReplyToActivity when replying to a specific activity in the conversation.
Use SendToConversation in all other cases.
