localTimezone missing from Activity in iOS
The localTimezone field is missing from Activity in Bot when using our bot/app in iOS.
Docs for reference:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/api/botframework-schema/activity?view=botbuilder-ts-latest#botframework-schema-activity-localtimezone
Kindly advise if this is a bug or if not, where can we retrieve this information when missing?
Thanks.
- Just checked, not just on iOS. Both Android and iOS. Previously, it was present in Android.

We have tested this using below code and In android we are getting localtimezonevalue.protected override async Task OnMessageActivityAsync(ITurnContext<IMessageActivity> turnContext, CancellationToken cancellationToken) { var localetimezone = turnContext.Activity.Entities[0].Properties.ToString(); ; var reply = MessageFactory.Text(localetimezone); await turnContext.SendActivityAsync(reply, cancellationToken); }Ref Doc: Get context for your Microsoft Teams bot - Teams | Microsoft Learn
Could you please share the code snippet which you are trying? Are you getting localtimezone in Teams web and desktop client?Nivedipa-MSFT The localTimezone is missing from
context received on TeamsActivityHandler.handleTeamsMessagingExtensionSubmitAction (submitAction invoke event: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/messaging-extensions/how-to/action-commands/respond-to-task-module-submit?tabs=javascript%2Cdotnet-1#the-submitaction-invoke-event)
The value is present when message extension is used in Desktop/Web Client, but is missing on mobile.
