Types of cards

Adaptive, hero, list, connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups, receipt, sign in, and thumbnail cards and card collections are supported in bots for Microsoft Teams. They're based on cards defined by the Bot Framework, but Teams doesn't support all Bot Framework cards and has added some of its own.

Before you identify the different card types, understand how to create a hero card, thumbnail card, or Adaptive Card.

Create a hero card, thumbnail card, or Adaptive Card

To create a hero card, thumbnail card, or Adaptive Card from Developer Portal for Teams:

  1. Go to Developer Portal for Teams.

  2. Select Design and build Adaptive Cards.

  3. Select New card.

  4. Enter card name and select Save.

  5. Select one of the cards from Hero Card, Thumbnail Card, or Adaptive Card.

    Screenshot shows an example of the configuration options for a hero card in the Adaptive Card editor in the Developer Portal.

  6. Select Save.

  7. Select Send me this card. The card is sent to you as a chat message.

Card examples

You can find additional information on how to use cards in the documentation for the Bot Builder SDK v3. Code samples are also available in the Microsoft/BotBuilder-Samples repository on GitHub. Following are a few card examples:

Card types

You can identify and use different types of cards based on your application requirements. The following table shows the types of cards available to you:

Card type Description
Adaptive Card This card is highly customizable and can contain any combination of text, speech, images, buttons, and input fields.
Hero card This card typically contains a single large image, one or more buttons, and a small amount of text.
List card This card contains a scrolling list of items.
Connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups This card has a flexible layout with multiple sections, fields, images, and actions.
Receipt card This card provides a receipt to the user.
Signin card This card enables a bot to request that a user signs in.
Thumbnail card This card typically contains a single thumbnail image, some short text, and one or more buttons.
Card collections This card collection is used to return multiple items in a single response.

Note

  • For Adaptive Cards in Incoming Webhooks, all native Adaptive Card schema elements, except Action.Submit, are fully supported. The supported actions are Action.OpenURL, Action.ShowCard, Action.ToggleVisibility, and Action.Execute.

  • Adaptive Card supports only Incoming Webhook connectors for Microsoft 365 groups type. For these connectors, you can send the Adaptive Card using the following format.

Common properties for all cards

You can go through some common properties that are applicable to all cards.

Note

Hero and thumbnail cards with multiple actions are automatically split into multiple cards in a carousel layout.

Inline card images

The card can contain an inline image by including a link to the publicly available image. For performance purposes, it's highly recommended you host the image on a public Content Delivery Network (CDN).

Images are scaled up or down in size to maintain the aspect ratio for covering the image area. Images are then cropped from center to achieve the appropriate aspect ratio for the card.

Images must be at most 1024 × 1024 and in PNG, JPEG, or GIF format. Animated GIF isn't supported.

The following table provides the properties of inline card images:

Property Type Description
url URL HTTPS URL to the image.
alt String Accessible description of the image.

Note

If a card includes an image URL that is redirected before the final image, the redirect in image URL is not supported. This occurs for images shared on the public cloud.

Buttons

Buttons are shown stacked at the bottom of the card. Button text is always on a single line and is truncated if the text exceeds the button width. Any additional buttons beyond the maximum number supported by the card aren't shown.

For more information, see card actions.

Card formatting

For more information on text formatting in cards, see card formatting.

After identifying the common properties for all cards, you can now work with Adaptive Cards, which help you increase engagement and efficiency by adding your actionable content directly into the apps you use.

Adaptive Card

An Adaptive Card is a customizable card that can contain any combination of text, speech, images, buttons, and input fields. For more information, see Adaptive Cards.

Adaptive Cards best practices

Adaptive Cards must not display a horizontal scroll. To avoid horizontal scrolls, don’t specify a fixed width.

  • ColumnSets

    • Avoid defining ColumnSets with more than three columns.
    • Don’t use explicit pixel width on more than one column in the set.
    • When using an explicit width, don’t specify a value that would make the column use more than one-fourth of the narrowest possible card width (for example, the width of a card in the meeting chat pane or in Microsoft 365 Copilot).
    • In general, 48 pixels is about the maximum explicit width you’d want to use, although there may be exceptions depending on the scenario.
  • Sizing images

    • When using an image inside a ColumnSet with more than one Column, prefer specifying the size of the column that contains the image rather than the image itself (set the image’s size to “auto” or “stretch”).
    • If your image isn’t in a ColumnSet, it’s generally advisable to set its size to “auto” or “stretch”.
    • If using an explicit width in pixels, make sure it doesn’t exceed 3/4 of the narrowest card width.
    • When using explicit sizing in pixels, either set the width or the height, but not both. Setting only one will ensure your image has the proper aspect ratio.
    • In general, only set the width of the image, not the height, although there might be exceptions depending on the scenario.

Connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups

You can work with a connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups that provides a flexible layout and is a great way to get useful information. The connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups is supported in Teams, not in Bot Framework. This card provides a flexible layout with multiple sections, fields, images, and actions. This card contains a connector card so that it can be used by bots. For differences between connector cards and the connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups, see Connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups.

Properties of the connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups

The following table provides the properties of the connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups:

Property Type Description
title Rich text Title of the card. Maximum two lines.
summary Rich text Required if the card doesn't contain a text property, otherwise optional. The summary property is typically displayed in the notification pop-up in Teams, as a way to quickly determine what the card is all about.

Do always include a summary.
Don't include the details in the summary. For example, for a Twitter post, a summary might read **New tweet from @someuser** without mentioning the content of the tweet itself.
text Rich text Text appears under the subtitle. For formatting options, see card formatting.
themeColor HEX string Color that overrides the accentColor provided from the application manifest.

For more information on the properties of the connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups, see card fields.

Additional information on the connector card for Microsoft 365 Groups

Connector cards for Microsoft 365 Groups function properly in Microsoft Teams, including ActionCard actions.

The important difference between using connector cards from a connector and using connector cards in your bot is the handling of card actions. The following table lists the difference:

Connector Bot
The endpoint receives the card payload through HTTP POST. The HttpPOST action triggers an invoke activity that sends only the action ID and body to the bot.

Each connector card can display a maximum of 10 sections, and each section can contain a maximum of five images and five actions.

Note

Any additional sections, images, or actions in a message do not appear.

All text fields support Markdown and HTML. You can control which sections use Markdown or HTML by setting the markdown property in a message. By default, markdown is set to true. If you want to use HTML instead, set markdown to false.

If you specify the themeColor property, it overrides the accentColor property in the app manifest.

To specify the rendering style for activityImage, you can set activityImageType as shown in the following table:

Value Description
avatar Default, activityImage is cropped as a circle.
article activityImage is displayed as a rectangle and retains its aspect ratio.

For all other details about connector card properties, see actionable message card reference. The only connector card properties that Teams doesn't support are as follows:

  • heroImage
  • hideOriginalBody
  • startGroup always treated as true in Teams
  • originator
  • correlationId
