Send an image attachment in Microsoft Azure Chatbot

问题

I have a created a Chat bot using Microsoft Azure bot service and LUIS. With my bot which was trained on LUIS, I'm able to receive text messages. I have connected the bot to Skype channel.

I don't know how to return a image attachment as an answer to a message.

I heard some of the Microsoft bot framework can send image as an attachment and I'm not sure about Azure bot service.

Sample code:

var recognizer = new builder.LuisRecognizer(LuisModelUrl);

var intents = new builder.IntentDialog({ recognizers: [recognizer] })
    .matches('**Greetings**', (session, args) => {session.send('**Hi! Welcome**');});

bot.dialog('/', intents);

My Case:

I want to attach the below URL image with 'Hi! Welcome' message when it matches with my Intent 'Greetings'.

ContentURL:"https://img.clipartfest.com/13e01fd74f423c39c4af7dcc8a7b8455_animated-welcome-sign-animated-welcome-clip-art-images_1300-899.jpeg",

ContentType = "image/jpeg"

I don't know how & and where to add the above content URL in my code to send attachment to the message.

Can someone help me with it?

RAS is right, although his code has errors in it. You need to define the reply message inside the function you pass in the matches method, or else you'll get a ReferenceError, since session is not defined. Also, use text() instead of setText(), which is depreciated.

var recognizer = new builder.LuisRecognizer(LuisModelUrl);

var intents = new builder.IntentDialog({ recognizers: [recognizer] })
    .matches('**Greetings**', (session, args) => {
        var reply = new builder.Message(session)
            .text("Hello!")
            .addAttachment({contentType: "image/jpeg", contentUrl: "https://img.clipartfest.com/13e01fd74f423c39c4af7dcc8a7b8455_animated-welcome-sign-animated-welcome-clip-art-images_1300-899.jpeg"});
    });

bot.dialog('/', intents);

Another way to add images is with Hero Cards or Thumbnail Cards. You can see example usages of these in the Bot Framework Samples github.

Thanks RAS and mgbennet.

It works with below code:

.matches('Greetings', (session, args) => {
            var reply = new builder.Message(); 
            reply.setText(session, "![Greetings](http://aka.ms/Fo983c)");
            session.send(reply);
  })

What about using something like this?

var reply = 
    new builder.Message()
        .setText(session, text)
        .addAttachment({ fallbackText: "Hello!", contentType: 'image/jpeg', contentUrl: picture });
session.send(reply);

Using your example it will be something like this:

var recognizer = new builder.LuisRecognizer(LuisModelUrl);

var reply = 
new builder.Message()
    .setText(session, "Hello!")
    .addAttachment({ fallbackText: text, contentType: 'image/jpeg', contentUrl: "https://img.clipartfest.com/13e01fd74f423c39c4af7dcc8a7b8455_animated-welcome-sign-animated-welcome-clip-art-images_1300-899.jpeg"});  

var intents = new builder.IntentDialog({ recognizers: [recognizer] })
.matches('Greetings', (session, args) => {session.send(reply);});
