Manage Azure Bot Service resources including bots, channels, and connections.
## Installation
```bash
pip install azure-mgmt-botservice
pip install azure-identity
```
## Environment Variables
```bash
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=<your-subscription-id>
AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP=<your-resource-group>
```
## Authentication
```python
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.mgmt.botservice import AzureBotService
import os
credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = AzureBotService(
credential=credential,
subscription_id=os.environ["AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID"]
)
```
## Create a Bot
```python
from azure.mgmt.botservice import AzureBotService
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import Bot, BotProperties, Sku
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
import os
credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = AzureBotService(
credential=credential,
subscription_id=os.environ["AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID"]
)
resource_group = os.environ["AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP"]
bot_name = "my-chat-bot"
bot = client.bots.create(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
parameters=Bot(
location="global",
sku=Sku(name="F0"), # Free tier
kind="azurebot",
properties=BotProperties(
display_name="My Chat Bot",
description="A conversational AI bot",
endpoint="https://my-bot-app.azurewebsites.net/api/messages",
msa_app_id="<your-app-id>",
msa_app_type="MultiTenant"
)
)
)
print(f"Bot created: {bot.name}")
```
## Get Bot Details
```python
bot = client.bots.get(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name
)
print(f"Bot: {bot.properties.display_name}")
print(f"Endpoint: {bot.properties.endpoint}")
print(f"SKU: {bot.sku.name}")
```
## List Bots in Resource Group
```python
bots = client.bots.list_by_resource_group(resource_group_name=resource_group)
for bot in bots:
print(f"Bot: {bot.name} - {bot.properties.display_name}")
```
## List All Bots in Subscription
```python
all_bots = client.bots.list()
for bot in all_bots:
print(f"Bot: {bot.name} in {bot.id.split('/')[4]}")
```
## Update Bot
```python
bot = client.bots.update(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
properties=BotProperties(
display_name="Updated Bot Name",
description="Updated description"
)
)
```
## Delete Bot
```python
client.bots.delete(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name
)
```
## Configure Channels
### Add Teams Channel
```python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
BotChannel,
MsTeamsChannel,
MsTeamsChannelProperties
)
channel = client.channels.create(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
channel_name="MsTeamsChannel",
parameters=BotChannel(
location="global",
properties=MsTeamsChannel(
properties=MsTeamsChannelProperties(
is_enabled=True
)
)
)
)
```
### Add Direct Line Channel
```python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
BotChannel,
DirectLineChannel,
DirectLineChannelProperties,
DirectLineSite
)
channel = client.channels.create(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
channel_name="DirectLineChannel",
parameters=BotChannel(
location="global",
properties=DirectLineChannel(
properties=DirectLineChannelProperties(
sites=[
DirectLineSite(
site_name="Default Site",
is_enabled=True,
is_v1_enabled=False,
is_v3_enabled=True
)
]
)
)
)
)
```
### Add Web Chat Channel
```python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
BotChannel,
WebChatChannel,
WebChatChannelProperties,
WebChatSite
)
channel = client.channels.create(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
channel_name="WebChatChannel",
parameters=BotChannel(
location="global",
properties=WebChatChannel(
properties=WebChatChannelProperties(
sites=[
WebChatSite(
site_name="Default Site",
is_enabled=True
)
]
)
)
)
)
```
## Get Channel Details
```python
channel = client.channels.get(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
channel_name="DirectLineChannel"
)
```
## List Channel Keys
```python
keys = client.channels.list_with_keys(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
channel_name="DirectLineChannel"
)
# Access Direct Line keys
if hasattr(keys.properties, 'properties'):
for site in keys.properties.properties.sites:
print(f"Site: {site.site_name}")
print(f"Key: {site.key}")
```
## Bot Connections (OAuth)
### Create Connection Setting
```python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
ConnectionSetting,
ConnectionSettingProperties
)
connection = client.bot_connection.create(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name,
connection_name="graph-connection",
parameters=ConnectionSetting(
location="global",
properties=ConnectionSettingProperties(
client_id="<oauth-client-id>",
client_secret="<oauth-client-secret>",
scopes="User.Read",
service_provider_id="<service-provider-id>"
)
)
)
```
### List Connections
```python
connections = client.bot_connection.list_by_bot_service(
resource_group_name=resource_group,
resource_name=bot_name
)
for conn in connections:
print(f"Connection: {conn.name}")
```
## Client Operations
| Operation | Method |
|-----------|--------|
| `client.bots` | Bot CRUD operations |
| `client.channels` | Channel configuration |
| `client.bot_connection` | OAuth connection settings |
| `client.direct_line` | Direct Line channel operations |
| `client.email` | Email channel operations |
| `client.operations` | Available operations |
| `client.host_settings` | Host settings operations |
## SKU Options
| SKU | Description |
|-----|-------------|
| `F0` | Free tier (limited messages) |
| `S1` | Standard tier (unlimited messages) |
## Channel Types
| Channel | Class | Purpose |
|---------|-------|---------|
| `MsTeamsChannel` | Microsoft Teams | Teams integration |
| `DirectLineChannel` | Direct Line | Custom client integration |
| `WebChatChannel` | Web Chat | Embeddable web widget |
| `SlackChannel` | Slack | Slack workspace integration |
| `FacebookChannel` | Facebook | Messenger integration |
| `EmailChannel` | Email | Email communication |
## Best Practices
1. **Use DefaultAzureCredential** for authentication
2. **Start with F0 SKU** for development, upgrade to S1 for production
3. **Store MSA App ID/Secret securely** — use Key Vault
4. **Enable only needed channels** — reduces attack surface
5. **Rotate Direct Line keys** periodically
6. **Use managed identity** when possible for bot connections
7. **Configure proper CORS** for Web Chat channel
## When to Use
