Microsoft Bot Framework Template — Configuration

Bot settings

Set Microsoft Bot Framework and Azure Bot endpoints, IDs, and secrets via User Secrets, Key Vault, or environment variables. The repo ships docs/Microsoft Bot Framework.md with authoritative placeholders—sample appsettings files use empty placeholders, not production secrets.

Forked appsettings naming

Extended templates should follow Extended template configuration alignment for product database catalog names, BOTFRAMEWORK_ORLEANS_DATABASE-style tokens for Orleans when enabled, and consistency between Application and AcceptanceTests layers.

Observability

OpenTelemetry, logging, and Application Insights wiring follow the forked ApplicationModel and base submodule patterns; bot-specific AI telemetry is registered in the overlay (see Application Insights — observability for conceptual notes).
