title: Bot Framework SDK4 C# - send proactive message to a user in Teams / REST response timeout
body: <p>Based on a GitHub sample, I created a dialog bot in Teams that collects information from a user and sends that to a Flow (Microsoft Flow/Power Automate) with a HTTP POST call. </p>
  
  <p>After that the Bot waits for a response and sends it back to the user. This generally would be sufficient if the timeout for the call wasn't limited to 2 minutes - sometimes it takes longer to get the complete actions in Flow and get the response. </p>
  
  <p>My question is how I could accomplish the same without getting the timeout. REST seemed the easiest as I'm not a programmer..</p>
  
  <p>I checked the GitHub sample for proactive messaging (<a href="https://github.com/microsoft/BotBuilder-Samples/tree/master/samples/csharp_dotnetcore/16.proactive-messages" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/microsoft/BotBuilder-Samples/tree/master/samples/csharp_dotnetcore/16.proactive-messages</a>), and that worked in the Emulator when I enter <em><a href="http://localhost:3978/api/notify" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://localhost:3978/api/notify</a></em>, but I have no idea how to use it published to Azure. What would be the endpoint and how I could pass the message text?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
