Virtual Assistant Deployer

This solution accelerator provides a way to deploy a Microsoft Virtual Assistant Solution without needing to install all the prerequisite tools on your own machine. It uses a preconfigured docker container to create and deploy the virtual assistant with minimal effort and time.

Once completed, you will have a Virtual Assistant deployed into Azure as well as the code available to make modifications and deploy updates.

Deploying your Virtual Assistant

There are two options to quickly getting your Virtual Assistant up and running.

Deploy with Visual Studio Codespaces - This is the simplest and will all happen online. The only thing you need is an Azure Subscription.
Deploy with Visual Studio Code locally - This option uses your locally installed VS Code and Docker to do the work.

How to talk to your assistant

After you have deployed the Virtual Assistant, you can test out!

Open the Azure portal and navigate to the Resource Group that has the name of your bot
Open the Web App Bot resource
Select the Test in Web Chat tab
Chat with your bot! NOTE: the first time you open the tab it may take a few moments as the entire app needs to start up for the first time

Customizing your assistant

Now that you have an environment for developing a Virtual Assistant, you may want to review the Next Steps section of the Virtual Assistant documentation for tutorials on some common customizations.

How to delete your assistant

When you are done with your assistant

Delete the Azure resource group
Delete the application from Azure Active Directory. It has the same name as your bot.

Additional Notes

The Virtual Assistant Deployer clones the Bot Framework Solutions repo when you start it up. This ensures that your assistant will be based on the latest version of the sample assistant.

You can find the manual creation/deployment instructions in the Bot Framework Solutions documentation
