Publishing a bot to a website

Most of the time, you’ll create bots that target either internal or external users—since those categories of users have different needs.

In this section, we’re going to switch the authentication method for the bot we just built so that it can be used on a public channel (such as a website or Facebook). In the real world, you’ll likely be building different bots for different scenarios.

No website? No problem

If you don’t have a developmental website to work with—that’s okay! You can go to https://www.wordpress.com and sign up for a free hosted website. We’ll be using a WordPress site in this example.

To publish the bot to a website, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Copilot Studio (https://copilotstudio.microsoft.com) and select your bot.
