Updating the Manifest schema

If you began any of the "Extend" path labs prior to October 27, 2024, you may be using a developer preview schema. A new, supported schema, v1.19, is now available and all preview applications need to update. The new schema also reflects the new Copilot agent naming.

To update your project, open the appPackage/manifest.json file.

First, replace the first two lines with these:

  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/teams/v1.19/MicrosoftTeams.schema.json",
  "manifestVersion": "1.19",

If you see a packageName property like this one in your manifest.json file, remove it as it is no longer necessary or supported.

  "packageName": "com.microsoft.teams.extension",

Then replace the copilotExtensions property with this:

  "copilotAgents": {
    "declarativeAgents": [
      {
        "id": "treygenie",
        "file": "trey-declarative-agent.json"
      }
    ]   
  }, 

Finally, rename trey-declarative-copilot.json to trey-declarative-agent.json to match the lab instructions.
