Please update to latest version of AdaptiveCards (schema 1.4, SDK 2.9)

I started out writing this as a bug, but while gathering documentation connected the dots that the issue I am seeing (below) is due to webchat being on an older version of the AdaptiveCards library.

Version

NPM package 4.12.1

Webchat updated to AdaptiveCards schema version 1.3, but doesn't seem to support the associatedInputs property on Action.Submit, which means in order to cancel out of the form, you have to fill it out first...

FYI, we often bump Adaptive Cards to their latest version immediately after every major release of Web Chat.

Our bump history and strategy:

• The last bump was done in December 2020 (PR Bump adaptivecards@2.5.0 #3630, dated 2020/12/7, after we released Web Chat 4.11)
• Between 2020/10/30 and 2020/12/16, Adaptive Cards 2.5.0 was their latest version
• We will bump to latest Adaptive Cards (probably 2.9.0) in the next few weeks after we release Web Chat 4.13.0
• We skipped bumping after 4.12 because 4.12 and 4.13 was too close to each other in terms of release date
  • We don't have time to fully test Adaptive Cards and schedule appropriately if any issues raised

I am curious if it is a bug in Adaptive Cards 2.5.0 and fixed in later versions.

I looked at their schema about Action.Submit and associatedInputs, the associateInputs property was introduced in schema 1.3, i.e. is in 2.5.0.

Could you share the Adaptive Cards JSON to us to further investigate the issue? I want to make sure when we bump to >= 2.9.0, it will fix the issue you are seeing.

Thanks for the info, here's the JSON:
{ "type": "AdaptiveCard", "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json", "version": "1.3", "body": [ { "type": "Input.Text", "placeholder": "Placeholder text", "label": "Required text input", "isRequired": true, "id": "a", "errorMessage": "Invalid" }, { "type": "Input.Number", "placeholder": "Placeholder text", "id": "b", "label": "Required number input", "isRequired": true, "errorMessage": "Invalid", "min": 5, "max": 8 } ], "actions": [ { "type": "Action.Submit", "title": "Action.Submit with validation" }, { "type": "Action.Submit", "title": "Action.Submit without validation", "associatedInputs": "none" } ] }

To note, updating Adaptive Cards on Web Chat also requires coordination across several teams which makes 'immediate' bumps fairly difficult. However we're very excited about these new features too!

DDEfromOR kindly provided a bot that already has cards testing new behavior we can 'borrow' for Mock Bot 😁

Adaptive Cards has been bumped, but action.execute still needs implementation on Web Chat. Closing in favor of #3844
