Conversation Start Properties not being passed to the PVA Bot about botframework-directlinejs

[stevengum]

@kaust-technovert are you using Web Chat or are you directly using Direct Line JS in your client?

The ConversationStartProperties have a specific shape for the Start Conversation API, so it might be that what you're trying to achieve is not possible via this approach.

If you are using Web Chat, I recommend checking this sample: 04.api/a.welcome-event for sending an Event activity to the bot with relevant data before other activities begin to appear in Web Chat.

I am using DirectLineJS directly in my client, and there is also some custom implementation which I cannot mess with. So I cannot use WebChat.
Is there any example for passing ConversationStartProperties to the bot and be able to use it?

@stevengum Are you aware of any way to pass ConversationStartProperties?

@timenick should know more about this topic.

@kaust-technovert like Steven said "The ConversationStartProperties have a specific shape for the Start Conversation API, so it might be that what you're trying to achieve is not possible via this approach." We do not support passing customized parameters and value for now.
