    Enable Native Image Support in Bot Conversations (Beyond iFrame Rendering in MS Teams)4. Future Consideration

    I would like to propose enhancing the bot experience by enabling native image support within bot conversations, rather than rendering images through an iFrame in MS Teams.Key Benefits: Improved User Experience for IT Support Use-Cases Allowing images within conversations will help visually guide users through resolution steps especially useful for IT-related issues where screenshots can simplify instructions and reduce confusion. Support for Image Generation via LLMs Enabling image rendering would unlock use-cases such as internal branding or design content creation, where images are generated based on user input using integrated LLMs. Downloadable Visual Assets Native support would allow users to download images directly from the chat, which is currently not possible with the iFrame-based rendering. This also adds better control over image formatting and display. Proven Feasibility This is technically achievable, as seen in the current implementation of “Employee Communications” messages, where the bot can display images alongside text. Extending this functionality to AAE plugins, Paths, Events, FAQs, etc., using HTML formatting or inline support, would bring consistency across all bot experiences. This enhancement will make bot interactions more intuitive, visually engaging, and functional across a broader range of enterprise use-cases.

    Enable Graph and Tabular Data Rendering in Bot Conversations4. Future Consideration

    I’d like to propose a feature enhancement to allow bots to natively render graphs and tabular data within conversations, rather than returning plain text responses. This would significantly improve the clarity and usefulness of data-centric interactions.Key Benefits: Improved Data Visualization Displaying charts, graphs, and tables directly in the chat would allow users to better understand trends and summaries, making responses more actionable and insightful. Dynamic Output from Excel or Backend Data When bots fetch data from Excel files or backend databases, having the ability to render that data visually can greatly enhance comprehension and reduce the need to switch between tools. Support for Business-Critical Use-Cases Functions like Sales, Finance, and Operations often rely on structured data. Rendering information visually within the conversation can boost productivity and reduce interpretation errors. Modern and Intuitive User Experience Providing rich, visual responses aligns with evolving user expectations from conversational platforms and makes data interactions more intuitive and engaging. Suggested Areas of Application: Response generation based on uploaded spreadsheets Output from API calls or internal dashboards KPI or metric summaries within structured workflows This feature would open up a wide range of data-driven automation and support scenarios, making chatbot interactions far more powerful and user-friendly.
