How to choose a bot template when creating a bot using Azure Web App Bot?
I'm trying to create a bot using the Azure Portal, trying to follow some tutorials from the documentation. Specifically, these:
Microsoft Docs https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/abs-quickstart?view=azure-bot-service-4.0
Azure 4 Everyone https://youtu.be/-FHc_lZ6jJY
When I got to the Azure portal and try to create a Web App Bot however, I am unable to choose a template. It seems to assume I want to create a QnA Bot, which is not the case. I've been doing tutorials and research for a few days; I'm pretty sure I recall this was not the case as of yesterday.
Did something get updated? Is using the Visual Studio template my only option now? I was hoping to use VS Code for the development once I downloaded the basic bot template.

I am not familiar with the link you posted, but Azure Web Bot services have changed a bit in the last 10-12 months. But the aforementioned links have step by step (12 steps) that have been actually updated as of TODAY. So! you can follow them to deploy your bot on:
