I'm working on a bot using the C# Microsoft Bot Framework and I'd like to send messages with action buttons to Facebook Messenger. I've successfully created the bot, deployed it and can communicate with it through Messenger and am now trying to refine the appearance of the bot's responses. I have been able to create single cards and carousels by putting the card info into Message.Attachements but I'd like to also include action buttons. The Messenger Platform docs describe button and "generic" templates in their Send API Reference but for the life of me I can't figure out how to coerce the Bot Connector to send buttons to Messenger. It'd be great if I could just put the Send API json into the Message.ChannelData property but no luck. Has anyone managed to get Messenger to show buttons from the Bot Framework?
