+# Quick start guide for using Assistants API with Teams AI library
+
+Get started using OpenAI or Azure OpenAI Assistants API with Teams AI library in Math tutor assistant sample. This guide uses the OpenAI Code Interpreter tool to help you create an assistant that specializes in mathematics. The bot uses the gpt-3.5-turbo model to chat with Microsoft Teams users and respond in a polite and respectful manner, staying within the scope of the conversation.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+To get started, ensure that you have the following tools:
+
+| Install | For using... |
+| | |
+| [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/download) | JavaScript, TypeScript, or C Sharp build environments. Use the latest version. |
+| [Teams Toolkit](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=TeamsDevApp.ms-teams-vscode-extension) | Microsoft Visual Studio Code extension that creates a project scaffolding for your app. Use the latest version.|
+|[Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)|Git is a version control system that helps you manage different versions of code within a repository. |
+| [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) | Back-end JavaScript runtime environment. For more information, see [Node.js version compatibility table for project type](~/toolkit/build-environments.md#nodejs-version-compatibility-table-for-project-type).|
+| [Microsoft Teams](https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-teams/download-app) | To collaborate with everyone, you work with through apps for chat, meetings, and call-all in one place.|
+| [OpenAI](https://openai.com/api/) or [Azure OpenAI](https://oai.azure.com/portal)| First create your OpenAI API key to use OpenAI's GPT. If you want to host your app or access resources in Azure, you must create an Azure OpenAI service.|
+| [Microsoft Edge](https://www.microsoft.com/edge) (recommended) or [Google Chrome](https://www.google.com/chrome/) | A browser with developer tools. |
+| [Microsoft 365 developer account](/microsoftteams/platform/concepts/build-and-test/prepare-your-o365-tenant) | Access to Teams account with the appropriate permissions to install an app and [enable custom Teams apps and turn on custom app uploading](../../../concepts/build-and-test/prepare-your-o365-tenant.md#enable-custom-teams-apps-and-turn-on-custom-app-uploading). |
+
+<br/>
+If you've already run the samples before or encountered a runtime error, follow these steps to start fresh:
+
+* Check all the `.env` and `env/.env.*.*` files in the sample and delete any automatically populated values to ensure that Teams Toolkit generates new resources for you.
+* If you donΓÇÖt want Teams Toolkit to generate the app ID and password, update the `MicrosoftAppId` and `MicrosoftAppPassword` in the `.env` file with your own values.
+* Remove values or leave the values blank for **SECRET_BOT_PASSWORD** and **TEAMS_APP_UPDATE_TIME** in the `.env` file to avoid conflicts.
+
+Teams Toolkit automatically provisions `MicrosoftAppId` and `MicrosoftAppPassword` resources. If you want to use your own resources, you need to manually add them to the `.env` file. Teams Toolkit doesn't auto-generate the following resources:
+
+* An Azure OpenAI or OpenAI key
+* A database or similar storage options

+If you've already run the samples before or encountered a runtime error, follow these steps to start fresh:
+
+* Check all the `.env` and `env/.env.*.*` files in the sample and delete any automatically populated values to ensure that Teams Toolkit generates new resources for you.
+* If you donΓÇÖt want Teams Toolkit to generate the app ID and password, update the `BOT_ID` and `BOT_PASSWORD` in the `.env` file with your own values.
+* Remove values or leave the values blank for **SECRET_BOT_PASSWORD** and **TEAMS_APP_UPDATE_TIME** in the `.env` file to avoid conflicts.
+
+Teams Toolkit automatically provisions `BOT_ID` and `BOT_PASSWORD` resources. If you want to use your own resources, you need to manually add them to the `.env` file. Teams Toolkit doesn't auto-generate the following resources:
+
+* An Azure OpenAI or OpenAI key
+* A database or similar storage options

+ Title: Core Capabilities of Teams AI Library
+description: In this article, learn more about Teams AI library capabilities, bot logic, Adaptive Cards capabilities, and message extension query.
+ms.localizationpriority: medium
++ Last updated : 05/24/2023++
+# Teams AI library capabilities
+
+Teams AI library supports JavaScript and is designed to simplify the process of building bots that can interact with Microsoft Teams, and facilitates the migration of existing bots. The AI library supports the migration of messaging capabilities, Message extension (ME) capabilities, and Adaptive Cards capabilities to the new format. It's also possible to upgrade existing Teams apps with these features.
+
+Earlier, you were using BotBuilder SDK directly to create bots for Microsoft Teams. Teams AI library is designed to facilitate the construction of bots that can interact with Microsoft Teams. While one of the key features of Teams AI library is the AI support that customers can utilize, the initial objective might be to upgrade their current bot without AI. After you upgrade, the bot can connect to AI or Large Language Models (LLMs) available in the AI library.
+
+Teams AI library supports the following capabilities:
+
+* [Send or receive message](#send-or-receive-message)
+
+* [Message extension (ME) capabilities](#message-extensions)
+
+* [Adaptive Cards capabilities](#adaptive-cards-capabilities)
+
+ You need to use the AI library to scaffold bot and Adaptive Card handlers to the source file.
+
+In the following section, we've used the samples from the [AI library](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/tree/main) to explain each capability and the path to migration:
+
+## Send or receive message
+
+You can send and receive messages using the Bot Framework. The app listens for the user to send a message, and when it receives this message, it deletes the conversation state and sends a message back to the user. The app also keeps track of the number of messages received in a conversation and echoes back the userΓÇÖs message with a count of messages received so far.
+
+# [.NET](#tab/dotnet6)
+
+* [Code sample](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/tree/main/dotnet/samples/01.messaging.echoBot)
+
+* [Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/dotnet/samples/01.messaging.echoBot/Program.cs#L49)
+
+```csharp
+ // Listen for user to say "/reset" and then delete conversation state
+ app.OnMessage("/reset", ActivityHandlers.ResetMessageHandler);
+
+ // Listen for ANY message to be received. MUST BE AFTER ANY OTHER MESSAGE HANDLERS
+ app.OnActivity(ActivityTypes.Message, ActivityHandlers.MessageHandler);
+
+ return app;
+```
+

+
+* [Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/js/samples/01.getting-started/a.echoBot/src/index.ts#L74)
+
+```typescript
+// Listen for user to say '/reset' and then delete conversation state
+app.message('/reset', async (context: TurnContext, state: ApplicationTurnState) => {
+ state.deleteConversationState();
+ await context.sendActivity(`Ok I've deleted the current conversation state.`);
+});
+
+// Listen for ANY message to be received. MUST BE AFTER ANY OTHER MESSAGE HANDLERS
+app.activity(ActivityTypes.Message, async (context: TurnContext, state: ApplicationTurnState) => {
+ // Increment count state
+ let count = state.conversation.count ?? 0;
+ state.conversation.count = ++count;
+
+ // Echo back users request
+ await context.sendActivity(`[${count}] you said: ${context.activity.text}`);
+});
+```
+
+# [Python](#tab/python6)

+
+* [Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/python/samples/01.messaging.a.echoBot/src/bot.py#L25)
+
+```python
+@app.activity("message")
+async def on_message(context: TurnContext, _state: TurnState):
+ await context.send_activity(f"you said: {context.activity.text}")
+ return True
+```
+++
+## Message extensions
+
+In the Bot Framework SDK's `TeamsActivityHandler`, you needed to set up the Message extensions query handler by extending handler methods. The app listens for search actions and item taps, and formats the search results as a list of HeroCards displaying package information. The result is used to display the search results in the messaging extension.
+
+# [.NET](#tab/dotnet5)
+
+* [Code sample](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/tree/main/dotnet/samples/02.messageExtensions.a.searchCommand)
+
+* [Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/dotnet/samples/02.messageExtensions.a.searchCommand/Program.cs#L47)
+
+* [Search results reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/dotnet/samples/02.messageExtensions.a.searchCommand/ActivityHandlers.cs#L39)
+
+```csharp
+// Listen for search actions
+ app.MessageExtensions.OnQuery("searchCmd", activityHandlers.QueryHandler);
+ // Listen for item tap
+ app.MessageExtensions.OnSelectItem(activityHandlers.SelectItemHandler);
+
+ return app;
+
+ // Format search results in ActivityHandlers.cs
+
+ List<MessagingExtensionAttachment> attachments = packages.Select(package => new MessagingExtensionAttachment
+ {
+ ContentType = HeroCard.ContentType,
+ Content = new HeroCard
+ {
+ Title = package.Id,
+ Text = package.Description
+ },
+ Preview = new HeroCard
+ {
+ Title = package.Id,
+ Text = package.Description,
+ Tap = new CardAction
+ {
+ Type = "invoke",
+ Value = package
+ }
+ }.ToAttachment()
+ }).ToList();
+
+ // Return results as a list
+
+ return new MessagingExtensionResult
+ {
+ Type = "result",
+ AttachmentLayout = "list",
+ Attachments = attachments
+ };
+
+```
+
+# [JavaScript](#tab/javascript5)
+
+Now, the app class has `messageExtensions` features to simplify creating the handlers:
+
+* `context`: `TurnContext`
+* `state`: `TurnState`
+* `query`: The data passed from message extension interaction
+
+* [Code sample](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/tree/main/js/samples/02.teams-features/a.messageExtensions.searchCommand)
+
+* [Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/js/samples/02.teams-features/a.messageExtensions.searchCommand/src/index.ts#L79)
+
+```javascript
+import { MessagingExtensionAttachment } from "botbuilder";
+import axios from 'axios';
+import { Application } from `@microsoft/teams-ai`;
+
+// Listen for search actions
+app.messageExtensions.query('searchCmd', async (context: TurnContext, state: TurnState, query) => {
+ const searchQuery = query.parameters.queryText ?? '';
+ const count = query.count ?? 10;
+ const response = await axios.get(
+ `http://registry.npmjs.com/-/v1/search?${new URLSearchParams({
+ size: count.toString(),
+ text: searchQuery
+ }).toString()}`
+ );
+
+ // Format search results
+ const results: MessagingExtensionAttachment[] = [];
+ response?.data?.objects?.forEach((obj: any) => results.push(createNpmSearchResultCard(obj.package)));
+
+ // Return results as a list
+ return {
+ attachmentLayout: 'list',
+ attachments: results,
+ type: 'result'
+ };
+});
+```
+
+Similarly, `selectItem` listener would be set up as:
+
+```typescript
+app.messageExtensions.selectItem(async (context: TurnContext, state: TurnState, item) => {
+ // Generate detailed result
+ const card = createNpmPackageCard(item);
+
+ // Return results
+ return {
+ attachmentLayout: 'list',
+ attachments: [card],
+ type: 'result'
+ };
+});
+```
+
+# [Python](#tab/python5)
+
+* [Code sample](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/tree/main/python/samples/02.messageExtensions.a.searchCommand)
+
+* [Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/python/samples/02.messageExtensions.a.searchCommand/src/bot.py#L44)
+
+```python
+@app.message_extensions.query("searchCmd")
+async def search_command(
+ _context: TurnContext, _state: AppTurnState, query: MessagingExtensionQuery
+) -> MessagingExtensionResult:
+ query_dict = query.as_dict()
+ search_query = ""
+ if query_dict["parameters"] is not None and len(query_dict["parameters"]) > 0:
+ for parameter in query_dict["parameters"]:
+ if parameter["name"] == "queryText":
+ search_query = parameter["value"]
+ break
+ count = query_dict["query_options"]["count"] if query_dict["query_options"]["count"] else 10
+ url = "http://registry.npmjs.com/-/v1/search?"
+ params = {"size": count, "text": search_query}
+
+ async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
+ async with session.get(url, params=params) as response:
+ res = await response.json()
+
+ results: List[MessagingExtensionAttachment] = []
+
+ for obj in res["objects"]:
+ results.append(create_npm_search_result_card(result=obj["package"]))
+
+ return MessagingExtensionResult(
+ attachment_layout="list", attachments=results, type="result"
+ )
+```
+++
+## Adaptive Cards capabilities
+
+You can register Adaptive Card action handlers using theΓÇ»`app.adaptiveCards` property. The app listens for messages containing the keywords `static` or `dynamic` and returns an Adaptive Card using the `StaticMessageHandler` or `DynamicMessageHandler` methods. The app also listens for queries from a dynamic search card, submit buttons on the Adaptive Cards.

+ app.AdaptiveCards.OnActionSubmit("DynamicSubmit", activityHandlers.DynamicSubmitHandler);
+
+ // Listen for ANY message to be received. MUST BE AFTER ANY OTHER HANDLERS

+## Bot logic for handling an action
+
+The Bot responds to the user's input with the action `LightsOn` to turn the lights on.

+### Message extension query
+
+The Teams AI library offers you a more intuitive approach to create handlers for various message-extension query commands when compared to previous iterations of Teams Bot Framework SDK. The new SDK works alongside the existing Teams Bot Framework SDK.
+
+The following is an example of how you can structure their code to handle a message-extension query for the `searchCmd` command.

+## Intents to actions
+
+A simple interface for actions and predictions allows bots to react when they have high confidence for taking action. Ambient presence lets bots learn intent, use prompts based on business logic, and generate responses.
+
+Thanks to our AI library, the prompt needs only to outline the actions supported by the bot, and supply a few-shot example of how to employ those actions. Conversation history helps with a natural dialogue between the user and bot, such as *add cereal to groceries list*, followed by *also add coffee*, which should indicate that coffee is to be added to the groceries list.
+
+The following is a conversation with an AI assistant. The AI assistant is capable of managing lists and recognizes the following commands:
+
+* DO `<action> <optional entities>`
+* SAY `<response>`
+
+The following actions are supported:
+
+* `addItem list="<list name>" item="<text>"`
+* `removeItem list="<list name>" item="<text>"`
+* `summarizeLists`
+
+All entities are required parameters to actions.
+
+* Current list names:
+
+ ```
+ {{conversation.listNames}}
+ ```
+
+ ```text
+
+ Examples:
+
+ Human: remind me to buy milk
+ AI: DO addItem list="groceries" item="milk" THEN SAY Ok I added milk to your groceries list
+ Human: we already have milk
+ AI: DO removeItem list="groceries" item="milk" THEN SAY Ok I removed milk from your groceries list
+ Human: buy ingredients to make margaritas
+ AI: DO addItem list="groceries" item="tequila" THEN DO addItem list="groceries" item="orange liqueur" THEN DO addItem list="groceries" item="lime juice" THEN SAY Ok I added tequila, orange liqueur, and lime juice to your groceries list
+ Human: do we have have milk
+ AI: DO findItem list="groceries" item="milk"
+ Human: what's in my grocery list
+ AI: DO summarizeLists
+ Human: what's the contents of all my lists?
+ AI: DO summarizeLists
+ Human: show me all lists but change the title to Beach Party
+ AI: DO summarizeLists
+ Human: show me all lists as a card and sort the lists alphabetically
+ AI: DO summarizeLists
+
+ ```
+
+* Conversation history:
+
+ ```
+ {{conversation.(history}}
+ ```
+
+* Current query:
+
+ ```
+ Human: {{activity.text}}
+ ```
+
+* Current list names:
+
+ ```javascript
+ {{conversation.listNames}}
+ ```
+
+* AI: The bot logic is streamlined to include handlers for actions such as `addItem` and `removeItem`. This distinct separation between actions and the prompts guiding the AI on how to execute the actions and prompts serves as a powerful tool.

+ Title: Use Teams AI Library to Build Apps/Bots
+description: In this article, learn how to create an app using Teams AI library with AI component, storage, register data source, prompts, and actions.
+ms.localizationpriority: medium
++ Last updated : 11/27/2023++
+# Get started with Teams AI library
+
+Teams AI library streamlines the process to build intelligent Microsoft Teams applications by using the AI components. It provides APIs to access and manipulate data, as well as a range of controls and components to create custom user interfaces.
+
+You can easily integrate Teams AI library, prompt management, and safety moderation into your apps and enhance the user experience. It also facilitates the creation of bots that uses an OpenAI API key or Azure OpenAI to provide an AI-driven conversational experience.
+
+## Initial setup
+
+Teams AI library is built on top of the Bot Framework SDK and uses its fundamentals to offer an extension to the Bot Framework SDK capabilities. As part of initial setup, it's important to import the Bot Framework SDK functionalities.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The adapter class that handles connectivity with the channels is imported from [Bot Framework SDK](/azure/bot-service/bot-builder-basics?view=azure-bot-service-4.0&preserve-view=true#the-bot-adapter).
+
+# [.NET](#tab/dotnet1)

+using Microsoft.Teams.AI;
+using Microsoft.Bot.Builder;
+using Microsoft.Bot.Builder.Integration.AspNet.Core;
+using Microsoft.Bot.Connector.Authentication;

+
+var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
+
+builder.Services.AddControllers();
+builder.Services.AddHttpClient("WebClient", client => client.Timeout = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(600));
+builder.Services.AddHttpContextAccessor();
+
+// Prepare Configuration for ConfigurationBotFrameworkAuthentication
+var config = builder.Configuration.Get<ConfigOptions>();
+builder.Configuration["MicrosoftAppType"] = "MultiTenant";
+builder.Configuration["MicrosoftAppId"] = config.BOT_ID;
+builder.Configuration["MicrosoftAppPassword"] = config.BOT_PASSWORD;
+
+// Create the Bot Framework Authentication to be used with the Bot Adapter.
+builder.Services.AddSingleton<BotFrameworkAuthentication, ConfigurationBotFrameworkAuthentication>();
+
+// Create the Cloud Adapter with error handling enabled.
+// Note: some classes expect a BotAdapter and some expect a BotFrameworkHttpAdapter, so
+// register the same adapter instance for all types.
+builder.Services.AddSingleton<CloudAdapter, AdapterWithErrorHandler>();

+### Import Teams AI library
+
+Import all the classes from `@microsoft/teams-ai` to build your bot and use the Teams AI library capabilities.
+
+[Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/js/samples/04.ai-apps/a.teamsChefBot/src/index.ts#L13)

+ OpenAIModel,
+ PromptManager,
+ TurnState
+} from '@microsoft/teams-ai';
+import { addResponseFormatter } from './responseFormatter';
+import { VectraDataSource } from './VectraDataSource';
+```
+
+## Create AI components
+
+Add AI capabilities to your existing app or a new Bot Framework app.
+
+**OpenAIModel**: The OpenAIModel class provides a way to access the OpenAI API or any other service, which adheres to the OpenAI REST format. It's compatible with both OpenAI and Azure OpenAI language models.
+
+**Prompt manager**: The prompt manager manages prompt creation. It calls functions and injects from your code into the prompt. It copies the conversation state and the user state into the prompt for you automatically.
+
+**ActionPlanner**: The ActionPlanner is the main component calling your Large Language Model (LLM) and includes several features to enhance and customize your model. It's responsible for generating and executing plans based on the user's input and the available actions.

+## Define storage and application
+
+The application object automatically manages the conversation and user state of your bot.
+
+* **Storage**: Create a storage provider to store the conversation and the user state for your bot.
+
+* **Application**: The application class has all the information and bot logic required for an app. You can register actions or activity handlers for the app in this class.
+
+# [.NET](#tab/dotnet3)
+
+[Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/dotnet/samples/04.ai.c.actionMapping.lightBot/Program.cs#L99)
+
+```csharp
+ return new TeamsLightBot(new()
+ {
+ Storage = sp.GetService<IStorage>(),
+ AI = new(planner),
+ LoggerFactory = loggerFactory,
+ TurnStateFactory = () =>
+ {
+ return new AppState();
+ }
+ });
+```
+
+`TurnStateFactory` allows you to create a custom state class for your application. You can use it to store additional information or logic that you need for your bot. You can also override some of the default properties of the turn state, such as the user input, the bot output, or the conversation history. To use `TurnStateFactory`, you need to create a class that extends the default turn state and pass a function that creates an instance of your class to the application constructor.
+
+# [JavaScript](#tab/javascript3)
+
+[Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/js/samples/03.ai-concepts/c.actionMapping-lightBot/src/index.ts#L112)
+
+```javascript
+// Define storage and application
+const storage = new MemoryStorage();
+const app = new Application<ApplicationTurnState>({
+ storage,
+ ai: {
+ planner,
+ // moderator
+ }
+});
+```
+
+The `MemoryStorage()` function stores all the state for your bot. The `Application` class replaces the Teams Activity Handler class. You can configure your `ai` by adding the planner, moderator, prompt manager, default prompt and history. The `ai` object is passed into the `Application`, which receives the AI components and the default prompt defined earlier.

+## Register data sources
+
+A vector data source makes it easy to add RAG to any prompt. You can register a named data source with the planner and then specify the name[s] of the data sources to augment the prompt within the prompt's `config.json` file. Data sources allow AI to inject relevant information from external sources into the prompt, such as vector databases or cognitive search. You can register named data sources with the planner and then specify the name[s] of the data sources they wish to augment the prompt within the prompt's `config.json` file.
+
+[Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/js/samples/04.ai-apps/a.teamsChefBot/src/index.ts#L118)
+
+```typescript
+// Register your data source with planner
+planner.prompts.addDataSource(new VectraDataSource({
+ name: 'teams-ai',
+ apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY!,
+ indexFolder: path.join(__dirname, '../index'),
+}));
+```
+
+### Embeddings
+
+An Embedding is a kind of Vector generated by an LLM that represents a piece of text. The text could be a word, sentence, or an entire document. Since the model understands the syntax and semantics of language the Embedding can capture the semantic meaning of the text in a compact form. Embeddings are often used in natural language processing tasks, such as text classification or sentiment analysis, but also be used for search.
+
+The model for generating Embeddings is different from the foundational LLMs. For example, OpenAI provides an embedding model called **text-embedding-ada-002**, which returns a list of 1536 numbers that represents the input text. The system creates embeddings for text within the documents and stores them in a Vector Database. Now from our Chat application we can implement the RAG pattern by first retrieving relevant data about the documents from the Vector Database, and then augmenting the Prompt with this retrieved information.

+
+## Prompt
+
+Prompts are pieces of text that can be used to create conversational experiences. Prompts are used to start conversations, ask questions, and generate responses. The use of prompts helps reduce the complexity of creating conversational experiences and make them more engaging for the user.
+
+A new object based prompt system breaks a prompt into sections and each section can be given a token budget that's either a fixed set of tokens, or proportional to the overall remaining tokens. You can generate prompts for both Text Completion and Chat Completion style APIs.
+
+The following are a few guidelines to create prompts:
+
+* Provide instructions, examples, or both.
+* Provide quality data. Ensure that there are enough examples and proofread your examples. The model is smart enough to see through basic spelling mistakes and give you a response, but it also might assume that the input is intentional, and it might affect the response.
+* Check your prompt settings. The temperature and top_p settings control how deterministic the model is in generating a response. Higher value such as 0.8 makes the output random, while lower value such as 0.2 makes the output focused and deterministic.
+
+Create a folder called prompts and define your prompts in the folder. When the user interacts with the bot by entering a text prompt, the bot responds with a text completion.
+
+* `skprompt.txt`: Contains the prompts text and supports template variables and functions. Define all your text prompts in the `skprompt.txt` file.
+
+* `config.json`: Contains the prompt model settings. Provide the right configuration to ensure bot responses are aligned with your requirement.
+
+ [Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/js/samples/03.ai-concepts/c.actionMapping-lightBot/src/prompts/sequence/config.json)
+
+ ```json
+ {
+ "schema": 1.1,
+ "description": "A bot that can turn the lights on and off",
+ "type": "completion",
+ "completion": {
+ "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",

+ ```
+
+### Query parameters
+
+The following table includes the query parameters:
+
+|**Value** |**Description** |
+|||
+|`model`|ID of the model to use.|
+|`completion_type`|The type of completion you would like to use for your model. Given a prompt, the model will return one or more predicted completions along with the probabilities of alternative tokens at each position. Supported options are `chat` and `text`. Default is `chat`.|
+|`include_history`|Boolean value. If you want to include history. Each prompt gets its own separate conversation history to make sure that the model doesn't get confused.|
+|`include_input`|Boolean value. If you want to include user's input in the prompt. How many tokens for the prompt.|
+|`max_input_tokens`|The maximum number of tokens for input. Max tokens supported is 4000.|
+|`max_tokens` | The maximum number of tokens to generate in the completion. The token count of your prompt plus max_tokens can't exceed the model's context length. |
+|`temperature` | What sampling temperature to use, between 0 and 2. Higher values like 0.8 makes the output more random, while lower values like 0.2 makes it more focused and deterministic. |
+|`top_p` |An alternative to sampling with temperature, called nucleus sampling, where the model considers the results of the tokens with top_p probability mass. Therefore, 0.1 means only the tokens comprising the top 10% probability mass are considered. |
+|`presence_penalty` | Number between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values penalize new tokens based on whether they appear in the text so far, increasing the model's likelihood to talk about new topics. |
+|`frequency_penalty` |Number between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values penalize new tokens based on their existing frequency in the text so far, decreasing the model's likelihood to repeat the same line verbatim. |
+|`stop_sequences` | Up to four sequences where the API stops generating further tokens. The returned text won't contain the stop sequence. |
+|`augmentation_type`| The type of augmentation. Supported values are `sequence`, `monologue` and `tools`.|
+
+### Prompt management
+
+Prompt management helps adjust the size and content of the prompt sent to the language model, considering the available token budget and the data sources or augmentations.
+
+If a bot has a maximum of 4,000 tokens where 2,800 tokens are for input and 1,000 tokens are for output, the model can manage the overall context window and ensure that it never processes more than 3,800 tokens. The model starts with a text of about 100 tokens, adds in the data source of another 1,200 tokens, and then looks at the remaining budget of 1,500 tokens. The system allocates the remaining 1,500 tokens to the conversation history and input. The conversation history is then condensed to fit the remaining space, ensuring the model never surpasses 2,800 tokens.
+
+### Prompt actions
+
+Plans let the model perform actions or respond to the user. You can create a schema of the plan and add a list of actions that you support to perform an action and pass arguments. The OpenAI endpoint figures out the actions required to be used, extracts all the entities, and passes those as arguments to the action call.
+
+```text
+The following is a conversation with an AI assistant.
+The assistant can turn a light on or off.
+
+context:
+The lights are currently {{getLightStatus}}.
+ ```
+
+### Prompt template
+
+Prompt template is a simple and powerful way to define and compose AI functions using plain text. You can use prompt template to create natural language prompts, generate responses, extract information, invoke other prompts, or perform any other task that can be expressed with text.
+
+The language supports features that allow you to include variables, call external functions, and pass parameters to functions. You don't need to write any code or import any external libraries, just use the curly braces {{...}} to embed expressions in your prompts. Teams parses your template and executes the logic behind it. This way, you can easily integrate AI into your apps with minimal effort and maximum flexibility.
+
+* ``{{function}}``: Calls a registered function and inserts its return value string.ΓÇï
+
+* ``{{$input}}``: Inserts the message text. It gets its value from state.temp.input.
+
+* ``{{$state.[property]}}``: Inserts state properties.
+
+## Actions
+
+Actions handle events triggered by AI components.
+
+`FlaggedInputAction` and `FlaggedOutputAction` are the built-in action handlers to handle the moderator flags. If the moderator flags an incoming message input, the moderator redirects to the `FlaggedInputAction` handler and the `context.sendActivity` sends a message to the user about the flag. If you want to stop the action, you must add `AI.StopCommandName`.
+
+[Sample code reference](https://github.com/microsoft/teams-ai/blob/main/js/samples/04.ai-apps/a.teamsChefBot/src/index.ts#L132)
+
+```typescript
+// Register other AI actions
+app.ai.action(
+ AI.FlaggedInputActionName,
+ async (context: TurnContext, state: ApplicationTurnState, data: Record<string, any>) => {
+ await context.sendActivity(`I'm sorry your message was flagged: ${JSON.stringify(data)}`);
+ return AI.StopCommandName;
+ }
+);
+
+app.ai.action(AI.FlaggedOutputActionName, async (context: TurnContext, state: ApplicationTurnState, data: any) => {
+ await context.sendActivity(`I'm not allowed to talk about such things.`);
+ return AI.StopCommandName;
+});
+```
+
+### Register Action Handlers
+
+Action handlers help users achieve the goals, which is shared in the user intents.
+
+One of the key aspects in action handlers is that you must first register the actions in the prompts and then help user achieve the goal.
+
+You must register a handler for each action listed in the prompt and also add a handler to deal with unknown actions.
+
+In the following example of a light bot, we have the `LightsOn`, `LightsOff`, and `Pause` action. Every time an action is called, you return a `string`. If you require the bot to return time, you don't need to parse the time and convert it to a number. The `PauseParameters` property ensures that it returns time in number format without pausing the prompt.

+@app.ai.action("LightsOn")
+async def on_lights_on(

+ state: AppTurnState,
+):
+ state.conversation.lights_on = True
+ await context.send_activity("[lights on]")
+ return "the lights are now on"
++
+@app.ai.action("LightsOff")

+ await context.send_activity(f"[pausing for {time_ms / 1000} seconds]")
+ time.sleep(time_ms / 1000)
+ return "done pausing"
+```
+++
+If you use either `sequence`, `monologue` or `tools` augmentation, it's impossible for the model to hallucinate an invalid function name, action name, or the correct parameters. You must create a new actions file and define all the actions you want the prompt to support for augmentation. You must define the actions to tell the model when to perform the action. Sequence augmentation is suitable for tasks that require multiple steps or complex logic.
+Monologue augmentation is suitable for tasks that require natural language understanding and generation, and more flexibility and creativity.
+
+In the following example of a light bot, the `actions.json` file has a list of all the actions the bot can perform:
+
+```json
+[
+ {
+ "name": "LightsOn",
+ "description": "Turns on the lights"
+ },
+ {
+ "name": "LightsOff",
+ "description": "Turns off the lights"
+ },
+ {
+ "name": "Pause",
+ "description": "Delays for a period of time",
+ "parameters": {
+ "type": "object",
+ "properties": {
+ "time": {
+ "type": "number",
+ "description": "The amount of time to delay in milliseconds"
+ }
+ },
+ "required": [
+ "time"
+ ]
+ }
+ }
+]
+```
+
+* `name`: Name of the action. Required.
+* `description`: Description of the action. Optional.
+* `parameters`: Add a JSON schema object of the required parameters.
+
+ Feedback loop is a model's response to validate, correct, or refine the answer to your question. If you're using a `sequence` augmentation, you can disable looping to guard against any accidental looping in the following ways:
+
+* You can set `allow_looping?` to `false` in the `AIOptions` definition.
+* You can set `max_repair_attempts` to `0` in the `index.ts` file.
+
+#### Manage history
+
+You can use the `MaxHistoryMessages` and `MaxConversationHistoryTokens` arguments to allow the AI library to automatically manage your history.
+
+### Feedback loop
+
+A feedback loop allows you to monitor and improve the botΓÇÖs interactions over time, leading to more effective and user-friendly applications. The feedback received can be used to make adjustments and improvements, ensuring that the bot consistently meets user needs and expectations.
+
+A feedback loop consists of the following:
+
+**Repair Loop**: If the model's response falls short of expectations, it triggers a repair loop. The conversation history forks, enabling the system to try various solutions without impacting the main conversation.
+
+**Validation**: Validation verifies the corrected response. If it successfully passes validation, the system unforks the conversation and reinserts the repaired structure into the main conversation.
+
+**Learn from Mistakes**: Once the model sees an example of correct behavior, it learns to avoid making similar mistakes in the future.
+
+**Handle Complex Commands**: Once the model has learned from its mistakes, it becomes capable of handling more complex commands and returning the desired plan.

+# Teams AI library
+
+Teams AI library is a Teams-centric interface to GPT-based common language models and user intent engines which, moderates the need for you to take on complex and expensive tasks of writing and maintaining conversational bot logic to integrate with Large Language Models (LLMs).
++
+The AI library provides a simple capabilities-driven approach and helps you to create intelligent apps quickly and easily with prebuilt, reusable code snippets so that you can focus on building the business logic rather than learning the semantics of Teams conversational applications.
+
+## Why use Teams AI library?
+
+The AI Library is a Teams-centric interface to Large Language Models. Your apps can use LLMs to facilitate more natural conversational interactions with users, guiding that conversation into your apps skills.
+
+You can focus on writing your business logic, and allow Teams to handle the complexities of conversational bots so that you can easily extract and utilize user intent within your apps.
++
+* The AI Library is a Teams-centric interface to Large Language Models. Use prebuilt templates to add Teams app capabilities.
+
+* Use techniques like prompt engineering to add ChatGPT like conversational experiences to your bot and built-in safety features, like moderation, help ensure your bot always responds in an appropriate manner.
+
+* The library includes a planning engine that lets the model identify the user's intent and then maps that intent to actions that you implement.
+
+* You can easily add support for any LLM of your choice without changing the bot logic.
+
+The Teams AI Library is available in JavaScript and C# languages allowing you to harness the power of AI and create intelligent, user-friendly applications for Microsoft Teams using the programming languages they're most comfortable with. We're committed to a mindset where you build AI products with the tools and languages you want in order to make the best experiences possible for your customers on Teams.
+
+The following are some of the main features available through Teams AI library:
+
+## Simple Teams-centric component scaffolding
+
+The Teams AI library simplifies the Teams app model to focus on the extension needed versus the protocol required. You can use prebuilt templates and add your business logic to this scaffold to add modules such as bots, message extensions, Adaptive Cards, or link unfurling.
+
+## Natural language modeling
+
+The Teams AI library is built with GPT-powered language models, so that you don't need to spend time to write your conversational logic and identify user intents. Building AI-powered Teams apps is easier, more compliant, and consistently usable than ever before.
+
+Bots can run in-context and assist when the bot recognizes a user intent that maps to one of the bot actions. This boosts the conversation without requiring users to explicitly talk to the bot using a small set of registered actions.
+
+## Prompt engineering
+
+Prompt engineering helps you to design prompts considering user's intent, context of the conversation, and the bot personality. Bots can be personalized and customized to meet user needs.
+
+## Conversational session history
+
+Teams AI library remembers context across messages and helps improve the bot performance by analyzing patterns in user behavior.
+
+## Localization
+
+Since Teams AI library uses OpenAI's GPT model, localization is available. When a user inputs in any language, the input is consistently translated to intents, entities, and resultant actions that the app understands without the need to build and maintain localization records.
+
+## LLM modularity
+
+Large language model (LLM) is an advanced language model that utilizes latent variables to generate coherent and diverse natural language text and style.
+
+Although, Teams AI library is built to use Open AIΓÇÖs GPT model, you have the flexibility to swap with any LLM of your choice without changing the bot logic. This means you can choose to keep your app's content outside the public domain and confined to your preferred LLM model.
+
+## Responsible AI
+
+Teams AI library allows you to create ethical and responsible conversational apps by:
+
+* Moderation hooks: To regulate bot responses against any moderation API.
+* Conversation sweeping: To monitor conversations and intervene when the conversation goes astray through proactive detection and remediation.
+* Feedback loops: To evaluate the performance of the bot for high quality conversations and enhance user experience.
+
+Teams AI library offers support from low code to complex scenarios. The library extends capabilities with AI constructs to build natural language modeling, scenario-specific user intent, personalization, and automated context-aware conversations.
+
+## Predictive engine for mapping intents to actions
+
+A simple interface for actions and predictions allows bots to react when the bot has confidence for taking action. Ambient presence lets bots learn intent, use prompts based on business logic, and generate responses. For example, if a user was out of office and needs to quickly summarize a thread, the library:
+
+1. Understands the intent as summarization.
+1. Allows prompts to make summarizations over a period of time focused on the userΓÇÖs manager.
+1. Provides actions to summarize chat content for users to consume.
+
+<!-- ## Bots Architecture overview
+
+The bot framework using Teams AI library requires the following:
+
+* Support to OAuth S2S
+* Adherence to Activity schema for reading and writing JSON documents
+* Invoking Rest APIs to determine additional context required to handle a user's message, such as Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) ID and UPN of the user the bot is interacting with. -->
+
+## Action Planner
+
+Action Planner is the main component calling your Large Language Model (LLM) and includes several features to enhance and customize your model. Model plugins simplify configuring your selected LLM to the planner and ships with an OpenAIModel that supports both OpenAI and Azure OpenAI LLMs. Additional plugins for other models like Llama-2 can easily be added, giving you the flexibility to choose what model is best for your use case. An internal feedback loop increases reliability by fixing the subpar responses from the LLM.
+
+## Assistants API
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Teams AI library supports both OpenAI and Azure OpenAI Assistants API in [public developer preview](~/resources/dev-preview/developer-preview-intro.md) for you to get started with building intelligent assistants.
+
+Assistants API allows you to create powerful AI assistants capable of performing a variety of tasks that are difficult to code using traditional methods. It provides programmatic access to OpenAIΓÇÖs GPT system for tasks ranging from chat to image processing, audio processing, and building custom assistants. The API supports natural language interaction, enabling the development of assistants that can understand and respond in a conversational manner.
+
+Follow the [quick start guide](assistants-api-quick-start.md) to create an assistant that specializes in mathematics.
+
+## Prompt management
+
+Dynamic prompt management is a feature of the AI system that allows it to adjust the size and content of the prompt that is sent to the language model, based on the available token budget and the data sources or augmentations. It can improve the efficiency and accuracy of the model by ensuring that the prompt doesn't exceed the context window or include irrelevant information.
+
+## Augmentation
+
+Efficiently enhance and direct your AI modelΓÇÖs responses with Augmentation. Using different augmentation modes, you can tailor your model to your needs, increasing its accuracy and desired outcomes.
+
+* **Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)**: Automatically incorporates real-time, dynamic, and specified external data sources into your modelΓÇÖs responses enabling up to date and contextually accurate results without fine-tuning or re-training your model. Answer questions about todayΓÇÖs sales numbers or customize to a specific userΓÇÖs data; with RAG your model is no longer stuck in the past.
+
+* **Monologue**: Create AutoGPT-style agents capable of performing multi-step actions independently and reliability with full schema validation and automatic repair included.
+
+* **Sequence**: Enable your AI assistant to return a sequence of actions for execution with schema validation increasing reliability.
+
+* **Functions**: Produce structured responses from your model by employing user-defined Functions. These functions are customizable using JSON schemas to define the parameters and their format. The ActionPlanner assesses model responses against the schema, making repairs as needed increasing response reliability and consistency.
+
+### Vector data sources
+
+Vector databases are a new type of database designed to store vectors and enable efficient search over them. They return the most relevant results for a user's query. The vector search feature in a vector database allows retrieval-augmented generation to use LLMs and custom data or domain-specific information. This involves extracting relevant information from a custom data source and integrating it into the model request through prompt engineering. Before sending a request to the LLM, the user input, query, or request is transformed into an embedding, and vector search techniques are used to find the most similar embeddings in the database.
+
+## Enhanced reasoning
+
+Teams AI Library offers an integrated fact-checking system to tackle bot hallucinations. When a user interacts with your AI assistant, the system prompts the bot to engage in a process of self-reflection critically evaluating its potential responses before sending. The introspection allows the bot to identify inaccuracies and correct its answers, which improves accuracy, quality, and contextual relevance. Advanced reasoning ensures that your AI assistant becomes a dependable source of information and judgment, building trust in your product and drawing users back every day.
+
+## Feedback loop
+
+Feedback loop allows the bot to validate and correct the output of the language model. It checks the structure and parameters of the plan or monologue that the model returns and provides feedback on errors or missing information. The model then tries to fix its mistakes and returns a valid output. The feedback loop can improve the reliability and accuracy of the AI system and reduce the chances of hallucination or invalid actions.
+
+The following table lists the updates to the Teams AI library:
+
+|Type |Description |.NET|JavaScript|Python|
+||||||
+|OpenAIModel |The OpenAIModel class lets you call both OAI and Azure OAI with one single component. New models can be defined for other model types like LLaMA2. | ✔️ |✔️|✔️|
+|Embeddings | The OpenAIEmbeddings class lets you generate embeddings using either OAI or Azure OAI. New embeddings can be defined for things like OSS Embeddings. | ❌ |✔️|✔️|
+|Prompts | A new object-based prompt system enables better token management and reduces the likelihood of overflowing the model's context window. | ✔️ |✔️|✔️|
+| Augmentation | Augmentations simplify prompt engineering tasks by letting the developer add named augmentations to their prompt. Only `functions`, `sequence`, and `monologue` style augmentations are supported. | ✔️ |✔️|✔️|
+|Data Sources | A new DataSource plugin makes it easy to add RAG to any prompt. You can register a named data source with the planner and then specify the name[s] of the data sources they wish to augment the prompt. | ❌ |✔️|✔️|
