Dialog context not showing up in Power Bi report

[tomSauret847]

What project is affected?

Power Bi report for Virtual Assistant and skills

What language is this in?

TypeScript

What happens?

We are unable to get any dialog context to show up in the power Bi dashboard. We have updated the telemetry logger to record PII but are still not getting any dialog context in the report. All other tabs are populating correctly we are just unable to see any output on the dialog tabs

What are the steps to reproduce this issue?

Create Virtual Assistant,
Add the Boolean value "true" to the telemetry logger
const telemetryLoggerMiddleware = new TelemetryLoggerMiddleware(telemetryClient, true);
const telemetryInitializerMiddleware = new TelemetryInitializerMiddleware(telemetryLoggerMiddleware, true);
check the "All Dialogs Overview" and "Dialog Overview" tabs in the power Bi report

What were you expecting to happen?

Dialog information to be populated in the report

Can you share any logs, error output, etc.?

No errors are present

Any screenshots or additional context?

Hi @tomSauret847 - we successfully reproduced the issue.

Also, we tried to reproduce this issue in the TypeScript Skill as well as in a C# Virtual Assistant/Skill but they correctly worked, so this seems to be related to the TypeScript Virtual Assistant only.

We would like to validate with you the repro steps that we followed to accomplish this:

Repro steps

1. Install Power BI Desktop

2. Download the Virtual Assistant analytics Power BI template

3. Deploy a TypeScript Virtual Assistant

4. Modify the index file adding true the following two constructors, as seen in the image:
   

5. Open the Virtual Assistant analytics template file in Power BI application

6. Obtain from your Application Insights resources, the Application Insights id

7. Add the previous data in the Power BI configuration

8. Start the bot

9. Check that the Power BI is correctly receiving the metrics

10. Verify that the all dialogs overview page it's not receiving any kind of information

We used as a guide the Power BI documentation to configure and obtain the Virtual Assistant Insights metrics.

As soon as we have any update, we will back to you 😊.

Issue reproduced using TypeScript Virtual Assistant

Thank you @Batta32 for looking into this. I did follow the steps you listed above and received the same result. it seems that this started after the upgrade to the published NPM package as the first version we had built before it went GA was populating the the dialog context in the Power BI report.
