08/11/2023, 7:35 PMHi,
I'm trying to create a private integration to connect my custom UI to my bot. I've designed the bot via the Studio, and pushed and connected my integration to my bot.
The idea is to send some messages via the bot framework and have a human handoff.
I don't see any options to send messages from the bot in the Studio to my integration. I had expected a card would show up that I could add to nodes. Is this not how this works?

08/11/2023, 8:49 PMThe second option is to have an action, that allows the bot to send some data to your 3rd party service, via the integration

08/11/2023, 8:50 PMCan you give me additional context on what does your integration look like and what are you trying to do with it in the studio?

08/12/2023, 4:41 AMYes I do have it set up with a channel. But is there a way for me to trigger the integration at a particular node?

08/12/2023, 5:13 AMI was following the code of the webchat integration, thought that was the closest to my use case. I didn't need a messaging server in my implementation, have swapped out those parts for a call to my backend that takes care of delivering the message client-side
