Migrate all Activity-derived classes from Teams.Api to Microsoft.Bot.Core

[Copilot]

Migrates all Activity-derived classes from Libraries/Microsoft.Teams.Api/Activities to core/src/Microsoft.Bot.Core/Activities as standalone classes without Teams.Api dependencies.

Changes

Base Infrastructure

• Created simplified Activity base class with core serialization-relevant properties
• Added supporting types: Account, Conversation, ConversationReference, ChannelData, Entity, Error, InnerHttpError
• All properties nullable, no interface implementations

Activities Migrated

Phase 1:

• TypingActivity
• EventActivity + subtypes: MeetingStartActivity, MeetingEndActivity, MeetingParticipantJoinActivity, MeetingParticipantLeaveActivity, ReadReceiptActivity
• InstallUpdateActivity
• CommandActivity
• CommandResultActivity

Phase 2:

• ConversationUpdateActivity
• EndOfConversationActivity
• MessageActivity (simplified without Teams.Api dependencies)
• MessageDeleteActivity
• MessageReactionActivity (with MessageReaction, ReactionUser types)
• MessageUpdateActivity

Phase 3 - Invoke Activities:

• InvokeActivity (base)
• ExecuteActionActivity, FileConsentActivity, HandoffActivity, SearchActivity
• AdaptiveCardActivity, AdaptiveCardActionActivity
• ConfigFetchActivity, ConfigSubmitActivity
• TabFetchActivity, TabSubmitActivity
• TaskFetchActivity, TaskSubmitActivity
• SignInTokenExchangeActivity, SignInVerifyStateActivity
• MessageSubmitActionActivity
• 9 MessageExtension activities: MessageExtensionAnonQueryLinkActivity, MessageExtensionCardButtonClickedActivity, MessageExtensionFetchTaskActivity, MessageExtensionQueryActivity, MessageExtensionQueryLinkActivity, MessageExtensionQuerySettingUrlActivity, MessageExtensionSelectItemActivity, MessageExtensionSettingActivity, MessageExtensionSubmitActionActivity

StringEnum → String Constants

• ActivityType → ActivityTypes static class (Typing, Event, Command, Message, MessageDelete, MessageUpdate, MessageReaction, ConversationUpdate, EndOfConversation, Invoke, etc.)
• EventActivity.Name → EventNames static class (ReadReceipt, MeetingStart, MeetingEnd, etc.)
• InvokeActivity.Name → InvokeNames static class (comprehensive constants for all invoke operation names)
• InstallUpdateAction → InstallUpdateActions static class (Add, Remove)
• EndOfConversationCode → EndOfConversationCodes static class (Unknown, CompletedSuccessfully, UserCancelled, etc.)
• ConversationUpdateActivity.EventType → ConversationEventTypes static class (ChannelCreated, TeamArchived, etc.)
• Role → Roles static class (Bot, User)
• InputHint → InputHints static class (AcceptingInput, IgnoringInput, ExpectingInput)
• TextFormat → TextFormats static class (Plain, Markdown, Xml)
• Importance → ImportanceLevels static class (Low, Normal, High, Urgent)
• DeliveryMode → DeliveryModes static class (Normal, Notification, Ephemeral, ExpectedReplies)
• ReactionType → ReactionTypes static class (Like, Heart, Laugh, Surprise, Sad, Angry, PlusOne)
• UserIdentityType → UserIdentityTypes static class (AadUser, OnPremiseAadUser, AnonymousGuest, FederatedUser)

Removed

• Interface implementations (IActivity, IEventActivity, IInvokeActivity)
• JsonPropertyOrder attributes throughout
• JsonConverter attributes throughout (including custom polymorphic converters)
• Abstract base classes (simplified ConfigActivity, TabActivity, TaskActivity, MessageExtensionActivity to concrete classes)
• Streaming-related methods (TypingActivity.AddStreamUpdate(), MessageActivity.AddStreamFinal())
• Complex Teams.Api dependencies (e.g., Attachment, SuggestedActions from MessageActivity)

Example Usage

// Before: StringEnum with required
public class InstallUpdateActivity : Activity
{
    public required InstallUpdateAction Action { get; set; }
}

// After: nullable string with constants class
public class InstallUpdateActivity : Activity
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Gets or sets the action. See <see cref="InstallUpdateActions"/> for common values.
    /// </summary>
    public string? Action { get; set; }
}

public static class InstallUpdateActions
{
    public const string Add = "add";
    public const string Remove = "remove";
}

Total: 30 activity files migrated to core/src/Microsoft.Bot.Core/Activities/

Original prompt

Move the following Activity-derived concrete classes from Libraries/Microsoft.Teams.Api/Activities to core/src/Microsoft.Bot.Core/Activities:

• TypingActivity
• EventActivity (+ any directly associated subtypes like MeetingStartActivity, MeetingEndActivity, etc.)
• InstallUpdateActivity (and InstallUpdateAction as a string constants class)
• CommandActivity
• CommandResultActivity

Do not move or edit Invoke-related activities at this stage.

Migration rules:

• Preserve their original base class from the Teams.Api source (do not integrate with CoreActivity, do not implement or reference interfaces).
• Remove any interface implementations, keep only concrete serialization-relevant members.
• Replace all StringEnum (or enum-like) fields with string? fields, and for each such logical enum, provide a static string constants class in the same folder. Update XML docs to reference the new constants class.
• Make all properties string? or nullable/reference type where relevant; remove JsonConverters and [JsonPropertyOrder].
• Add or preserve XML documentation for all public members, and in particular call out former StringEnum fields with references to the associated constants class.

Move any directly needed dependent types (such as subtypes of EventActivity) with the same rules.

@copilot continue with the rest of activities

Completed migration of all remaining non-Invoke activities:

Phase 2 Activities Added:

• ConversationUpdateActivity (with ConversationEventTypes constants)
• EndOfConversationActivity (with EndOfConversationCodes constants)
• MessageActivity (simplified, with InputHints, TextFormats, ImportanceLevels, DeliveryModes constants)
• MessageDeleteActivity
• MessageReactionActivity (with MessageReaction/ReactionUser types, ReactionTypes, UserIdentityTypes constants)
• MessageUpdateActivity

All activities follow the same migration pattern: removed StringEnum, replaced with string? and static constants classes, removed JsonPropertyOrder/JsonConverter, made properties nullable.

Total: 19 activity files in core/src/Microsoft.Bot.Core/Activities/

@copilot great. now continue migrating all the other activities, includes Invokes, AdaptiveCards, Configs, Tasks and Message Extensions

Completed migration of all Invoke-related activities including AdaptiveCards, Configs, Tasks, Tabs, SignIn, and Message Extensions.

Invoke Activities Added (20 activities):

• Base: InvokeActivity (with comprehensive InvokeNames constants)
• Simple: ExecuteActionActivity, FileConsentActivity, HandoffActivity, SearchActivity
• AdaptiveCard: AdaptiveCardActivity, AdaptiveCardActionActivity
• Config: ConfigFetchActivity, ConfigSubmitActivity
• Tab: TabFetchActivity, TabSubmitActivity
• Task: TaskFetchActivity, TaskSubmitActivity
• SignIn: SignInTokenExchangeActivity, SignInVerifyStateActivity
• Message: MessageSubmitActionActivity
• MessageExtension: 9 activities (AnonQueryLink, CardButtonClicked, FetchTask, Query, QueryLink, QuerySettingUrl, SelectItem, Setting, SubmitAction)

All activities simplified by removing custom JsonConverters, abstract base classes, and Teams.Api dependencies. Using same migration pattern with string constants.

Total migration: 30 activity files in core/src/Microsoft.Bot.Core/Activities/
