Azure Bot Service Management SDK for Python

Manage Azure Bot Service resources including bots, channels, and connections.

Installation

bash
pip install azure-mgmt-botservice
pip install azure-identity

Environment Variables

bash
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=<your-subscription-id>
AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP=<your-resource-group>

Authentication

python
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.mgmt.botservice import AzureBotService
import os

credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = AzureBotService(
    credential=credential,
    subscription_id=os.environ["AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID"]
)

Create a Bot

python
from azure.mgmt.botservice import AzureBotService
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import Bot, BotProperties, Sku
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
import os

credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
client = AzureBotService(
    credential=credential,
    subscription_id=os.environ["AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID"]
)

resource_group = os.environ["AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP"]
bot_name = "my-chat-bot"

bot = client.bots.create(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    parameters=Bot(
        location="global",
        sku=Sku(name="F0"),  # Free tier
        kind="azurebot",
        properties=BotProperties(
            display_name="My Chat Bot",
            description="A conversational AI bot",
            endpoint="https://my-bot-app.azurewebsites.net/api/messages",
            msa_app_id="<your-app-id>",
            msa_app_type="MultiTenant"
        )
    )
)

print(f"Bot created: {bot.name}")

Get Bot Details

python
bot = client.bots.get(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name
)

print(f"Bot: {bot.properties.display_name}")
print(f"Endpoint: {bot.properties.endpoint}")
print(f"SKU: {bot.sku.name}")

List Bots in Resource Group

python
bots = client.bots.list_by_resource_group(resource_group_name=resource_group)

for bot in bots:
    print(f"Bot: {bot.name} - {bot.properties.display_name}")

List All Bots in Subscription

python
all_bots = client.bots.list()

for bot in all_bots:
    print(f"Bot: {bot.name} in {bot.id.split('/')[4]}")

python
bot = client.bots.update(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    properties=BotProperties(
        display_name="Updated Bot Name",
        description="Updated description"
    )
)

Delete Bot

python
client.bots.delete(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name
)

Configure Channels

Add Teams Channel

python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
    BotChannel,
    MsTeamsChannel,
    MsTeamsChannelProperties
)

channel = client.channels.create(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    channel_name="MsTeamsChannel",
    parameters=BotChannel(
        location="global",
        properties=MsTeamsChannel(
            properties=MsTeamsChannelProperties(
                is_enabled=True
            )
        )
    )
)

Add Direct Line Channel

python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
    BotChannel,
    DirectLineChannel,
    DirectLineChannelProperties,
    DirectLineSite
)

channel = client.channels.create(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    channel_name="DirectLineChannel",
    parameters=BotChannel(
        location="global",
        properties=DirectLineChannel(
            properties=DirectLineChannelProperties(
                sites=[
                    DirectLineSite(
                        site_name="Default Site",
                        is_enabled=True,
                        is_v1_enabled=False,
                        is_v3_enabled=True
                    )
                ]
            )
        )
    )
)

Add Web Chat Channel

python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
    BotChannel,
    WebChatChannel,
    WebChatChannelProperties,
    WebChatSite
)

channel = client.channels.create(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    channel_name="WebChatChannel",
    parameters=BotChannel(
        location="global",
        properties=WebChatChannel(
            properties=WebChatChannelProperties(
                sites=[
                    WebChatSite(
                        site_name="Default Site",
                        is_enabled=True
                    )
                ]
            )
        )
    )
)

Get Channel Details

python
channel = client.channels.get(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    channel_name="DirectLineChannel"
)

List Channel Keys

python
keys = client.channels.list_with_keys(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    channel_name="DirectLineChannel"
)

# Access Direct Line keys
if hasattr(keys.properties, 'properties'):
    for site in keys.properties.properties.sites:
        print(f"Site: {site.site_name}")
        print(f"Key: {site.key}")

Bot Connections (OAuth)

Create Connection Setting

python
from azure.mgmt.botservice.models import (
    ConnectionSetting,
    ConnectionSettingProperties
)

connection = client.bot_connection.create(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name,
    connection_name="graph-connection",
    parameters=ConnectionSetting(
        location="global",
        properties=ConnectionSettingProperties(
            client_id="<oauth-client-id>",
            client_secret="<oauth-client-secret>",
            scopes="User.Read",
            service_provider_id="<service-provider-id>"
        )
    )
)

List Connections

python
connections = client.bot_connection.list_by_bot_service(
    resource_group_name=resource_group,
    resource_name=bot_name
)

for conn in connections:
    print(f"Connection: {conn.name}")

Client Operations

Operation Method
client.bots Bot CRUD operations
client.channels Channel configuration
client.bot_connection OAuth connection settings
client.direct_line Direct Line channel operations
client.email Email channel operations
client.operations Available operations
client.host_settings Host settings operations

SKU Options

SKU Description
F0 Free tier (limited messages)
S1 Standard tier (unlimited messages)

Channel Types

Channel Class Purpose
MsTeamsChannel Microsoft Teams Teams integration
DirectLineChannel Direct Line Custom client integration
WebChatChannel Web Chat Embeddable web widget
SlackChannel Slack Slack workspace integration
FacebookChannel Facebook Messenger integration
EmailChannel Email Email communication

Best Practices

  1. Use DefaultAzureCredential for authentication
  2. Start with F0 SKU for development, upgrade to S1 for production
  3. Store MSA App ID/Secret securely — use Key Vault
  4. Enable only needed channels — reduces attack surface
  5. Rotate Direct Line keys periodically
  6. Use managed identity when possible for bot connections
  7. Configure proper CORS for Web Chat channel
