MS Teams samples not sending messages to listening bot application

When following MS Teams bot samples, I am unable to get any messages from Teams to reach my hosted applications.

Following the MS Teams sample - this is the best way to reproduce the problem.

I ran the project and obtained the endpoint as https://kindly-ash.glitch.me/api/messages.

Registered this on the bot framework site - with Webchat as well as MS Teams.

When sending a message from MS Teams, no requests were reaching the listening Node application.

When sending a message using the bot framework site's webchat, a request does reach the listening Node application, but errors out. 

(node:648) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Request to 'https://state.botframework.com/v3/botstate/webchat/conversations/873ec470c2fe4cf687c186d31c2b17f4/users/873ec470c2fe4cf687c186d31c2b17f4' failed: [405] Method Not Allowed

(node:648) [DEP0018] DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit code.

In addition to the above, I have tried these samples locally and exposing via ngrok, I've also tried hosting on my own servers. I have also tried deleting and recreating bots, removing and re-adding channels.

When testing directly via the Bot Framework Emulator, the message is always received.

I'm unable to tell if MS Teams is not sending requests out, or the Bot Framework site is at fault. Can anyone tell me where I may be missing something in the setup work?

Did you follow the step #4 and set the App Id and App password in .env file? Could you please share your Bot Id? – Wajeed-MSFT
Hi @Wajeed-MSFT yes I did add those values to the .env. I have recreated a new bot today, same sample code. Handle is my-test-bot-7 and AppID is 48177a29-d974-464c-b7b5-a50c20aa6698. Today when I send messages from Teams, I am getting the "HTTP 405" error (Method not allowed) – Mendhak

This is happening because Bot State Service is deprecated. For testing you could use In Memory Storage. Please update code in src/Bot.ts inside constructor to set In Memory Storage like this: 

constructor(private _connector: teams.TeamsChatConnector,private botSettings: any,) {
    super(_connector, botSettings);
    this.set("persistConversationData", true);

    var inMemoryStorage = new builder.MemoryBotStorage();    
    this.set('storage', inMemoryStorage);

Please have a look at documentation on how to Manage state data. For production please use Custom Data Storage.
