What does "Enable Streaming Endpoint" on an Azure Bot Framework Registration do?

Question

I was modifying the messaging endpoint URL for one of the Bot Framework bot registrations that I have on Azure, and noticed a new checkbox option that is titled "Enable Streaming Endpoint". I don't see any documentation yet what this option does, can anyone explain what it is and why you would enable it?

Answer 1

It is a new feature, related to Direct Line Speech channel.

You can see docs here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/bot-service-channel-connect-directlinespeech?view=azure-bot-service-4.0#enable-the-bot-framework-protocol-streaming-extensions
