My bot keeps failing on the following line of code with the error in Skype, WebChat, and FB chat. I've tried entering the MS App ID and password via the app settings and the web.config. This works fine in the emulator without any errors. When I ran remote debugging I found that this fails on Webchat, Skype, and FB messenger at this line of code:
await connector.Conversations.ReplyToActivityAsync(reply1);
My bot is integrated with SmartThings so the smart accessories are turning on and off as expected but the response back that should be returned in the chat seems to be failing. I've tried creating a new bot service app but it fails as well.
Update including all code:
