Viva Connections: Create Bot-powered Adaptive Card Extensions

Adaptive Card Extensions (ACEs) are a SharePoint Framework component type, which enables developers to build rich, native extensions to Viva Connections' Dashboards and SharePoint Pages. Usually, ACEs are developed using SPFx and front-end development. But what if you have existing service that powers Microsoft Teams bots or Task modules that you want to reuse in ACEs?
