How to respond to a message from the Bot Framework (Direct Line Client)?

Question

I want to create a dialogue with the base of bots. My steps:

• Create a new dialog using the straight line API (works without problems) (Clientside)

• In the Bot (Serverside) structure, the following dialog starts:

  bot.dialog('*:notification', [
  function (session, args) {
    builder.Prompts.text(session, args)
  },
  function (session, results) {
    logger.info('Results', results)
  }])
  

• I want to send a response to an incoming message (Clientside)

  method:'post',
  url:'conversations/' + conversationId + '/activities',
  headers:{
      'Authorization': 'Bearer' + token
  }
  body:{
      replyToId: replyToId,
      type:'message',
      from: { 
          id:'myId'
      },
      text: 'Some simple text',
      textFormat: 'plain'
  }
  

talkId: I use the one that was received when creating the conversation

token: I use the one that was received when creating the conversation

replyToId: one of the Activity object

Actual result:

4. Botframework does not recognize that it is a response to the send message and starts the default handler.

Expected Result:

4. The Bot platform launches the second step of the dialogue.

-, '*:notification' triggerAction, , , :

bot.dialog('*:notification', [
    function (session, args) {
      builder.Prompts.text(session, args)
    },
    function (session, results) {
      logger.info('Results', results)
}]).triggerAction({matches: /^notification/i});

DL :

method:'post',
url:'conversations/' + conversationId + '/activities',
headers:{
    'Authorization': 'Bearer' + token
}
body:{
    type:'message',
    from: { 
        "id": "1234",
        "firstname": "fname",
        "lastname": "lname"
    },
    text: 'notification',
    textFormat: 'plain'
}
