Compose extension is throwing error : V3 agent not found

Question

I am new to creating Compose Extensions in Teams and am facing an issue when I add it to my Teams.

All the configurations are in place, from registering the Bot to hosting it as a Bot Service on Azure and handling the compose extension query in the code. I have shared the Bot Id in the manifest and given the bot hosted URL with /api/messages appended to the endpoint URL.

The bot as a standalone application works locally as well as on the Azure Porta. I have successfully remote debugged it as well. However, as soon as I sideload it in Teams as a messaging extension, the query is not firing appropriately.

While typing, it stops and shows "Something went wrong with this app. Try Again".
Moreover, when we load the Compose Extension it should make an initial hit to the hosted bot application, I have the debuggers in place and it neither hits the Constructor nor the Post method.
I am getting a 404 error saying V3 agent not found and a failed POST request.

Anyone who might have faced a similar issue and has recovered from it, or may know where I may be going wrong kindly provide your advice. Highly appreciated.

Could you please try msteams-samples-hello-world-csharp sample app and see if you are able to get compose extension working? — Wajeed-MSFT
I zipped the Manifest folder. While uploading it as a custom app it is throwing error : Error in parsing Manifest file. — Aniket
composeExtensions[0].botId should be the GUID for your bot registered in Bot Framework. Also, validDomains should just be your Azure app domain (foo.azurewebsites.net), not *.azurewebsites.net. You don't need to include *.microsoft.com either. Give that a try and see if it helps. — Bill Bliss - MSFT
