Hi sowmyaseetha,
To change the app icon in your manifest file, you need to update the icons property. The icons property is an object that contains two properties: color and outline. The color property is the URL of the bot's icon in color, and the outline property is the URL of the bot's icon in outline.
To change the bot app icon, you need to replace the color.png and outline.png files with your desired images. The images should be in PNG format and should be 256x256 pixels.
Once you have replaced the images, you need to update the icons property in your manifest file to point to the new images. For example:
"icons": {
"color": "https://example.com/my-bot-icon.png",
"outline": "https://example.com/my-bot-icon-outline.png"
}
Once you have updated the manifest file, you need to save it and deploy it to your bot.
It may take some time for the changes to propagate to all Teams clients.
Here are some additional tips for changing the bot app icon:
- Make sure that the images you use for the bot icon are in PNG format and are 256x256 pixels.
- Make sure that the images are accessible to all Teams clients. This means that you should host the images on a public website or use a CDN.
- If you are sideloading the bot, you will need to clear the Teams cache after deploying the new manifest file.
