How to access the bot deployed from Microsoft Samples (bot-builder-samples)

I have created bots using the azure portal, which auto creates a bot app resource in azure. When I click on this resource via the portal, I can access the bot by opening the chat window and can try out the bot.

I also created bot using visual studio, published it to the azure web and then configured a 'bot channels registration' bot to use this published bot.

All good so far.

Now I am trying to go through the ready made Microsoft examples from: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/dotnet/bot-builder-dotnet-samples?view=azure-bot-service-3.0

I opened the "Create new conversation" link from the above website (https://github.com/Microsoft/BotBuilder-Samples/tree/master/CSharp/core-CreateNewConversation). I scroll down and click on "Deploy to Azure" button and the deploy is successful. How do I access the bot now?

I have tried creating the 'bot channels registration' bot and setting the messaging endpoint to the https://DeployedExampleAzureWebsiteLink/api/messages. Now, when I go into this azure resource, and into the test chat window, my message does not get delivered to the bot, and same issue upon retry aswell.

How do I access this bot please?

Make sure the MicrosoftAppId and MicrosoftAppPassword from the 'bot channels registration' are in the App Settings of the CreateNewConversation web app (or in the web.config file would also work). - Eric Dahlvang
Hi @EricDahlvang, done this, but then when I load the 'Test in Web Chat', and send a message, it says 'couldn't send retry'. - variable

When you click deploy to Azure you get an option to fill out the Microsoft App Id and Password. Deploy to Azure

You are supposed to enter the same App Id and Password you gave while registering the Bot in the Bot channel registration
