[Adaptive Card] [Plans for dialog or pop-up]

[Your detailed feedback here]

I'm using adaptive card well.
Do you have any plans to provide pop-up(dialog)?
What time is it scheduled to be provided?

Hello @jychaaacha - there are a couple of options here depending on whether you're a card author or a card host. Card authors don't really have a way to specify a popup dialog, and as far as I know, there aren't any current plans to expose that functionality as an explicit element (@matthidinger can confirm).

If you're a card host, though, there are a couple of options -- first, you can use the hostconfig option actionMode set to popup, which causes Action.ShowCard actions to be presented as a popup dialog rather than an inline card. The second option as a host would be to author your own dialog that hosts cards.

If I use the first option, is it right that all Action.ShowCard actions change from inline to popup? I want to use both options. Is there any way to branch the option?

Unfortunately, there's no way to do that currently. @matthidinger - are we tracking any requests for this functionality? I couldn't find anything on ProductBoard...

Hi @paulcam206 , I tried the approach of setting the actionmode as "popup" in web chat bot. I have taken the reference from other issue. I tried to change the action mode in the webchat configs for adaptive cards but it didn't work. Did i miss anything or is there any other way to do it in web chat.

This feature is deprecated and is dependent on host support for ShowCard. We are not planning on adding dialog-like elements as of this moment.
