Features
OAuth 2.0 support for Custom Endpoint and Amazon Lex connector
With this release, the Third-Party Bot connectors for custom endpoints and Amazon Lex support the OAuth 2.0 authentication flow against external IDPs. The generated token will be attached to requests to the respective vendors and can there be used for authentication.
For configuration instructions, please refer to the updated developers documentation.
Enhancements
Latency improvements to bot responses
Messaging bots are configured to await the UMS acknowledgment signal before continuing to process further messages. A bug in this procedure resulted in unnecessary latency. With this fix, the processing of a message should only be delayed for less than 100ms waiting on the ACK, instead of up to one second.
