i have a simple chatbot running, I had to redeploy the app and bot today for some reason and it no longer works after redeploying it.

• when i upload a manifest manually: The new teams client just fails with Uncaught (in promise) SyntaxError: "[object Object]" is not valid JSON and the old teams client returns Upload failed due to an invalid BotId in your manifest.
• The manifest is correctly validated by developer portal.
• it was working just fine as of 3pm EST on March 20th.
• test in web chat works fine
• if i click on 'Channels' in azure bot settings and click on 'Open in Teams' it does not work either

Hey @pmcilreavy @sarhaan7 , sorry for the inconvenience! This issue is possibly related to bot infra service, we can reproduce the error. We're trying to contact that team for more investigation.

Please check your network, let me know if you meet the same API failure/ error code:

@nliu-ms Yes confirmed.

Hey @pmcilreavy @sarhaan7, there was an outage from bot infra underneath, and it's recovered few hours ago. This issue should be mitigated. Please let me know if your apps can work now.

If you're still meeting the same failure, can you please provide the detailed failure response of https://teams.microsoft.com/api/apps/part/msft/beta/users/apps/definitions/appPackage API? Especially the timestamp and X-serverrequestid header from error response.

Thanks!

[pm7y]

Yeah, seems good now.

Thanks for the confirmation @pmcilreavy
