I think that perhaps the entire javascript_es6 directory should be removed? If not, at least sample 70.styling-webchat is not longer applicable since the change to Direct Line impacts how secrets/tokens are used, This sample needs to be removed.
Note sure about sample 01.browser-echo.
@corinagum thoughts?
01.browser-echo probably is one of the least popular samples, but it does demonstrate some interesting functionality: hosting the bot entirely in the user's browser.
Agree with @mdrichardson :)
Not sure what you mean about sample 70... can't it just be updated? Web Chat samples already document this extensively.
@axelsrz, FYI: I am removing labels since @WashingtonKayaker is part of the docs team.
The Web Chat samples request a token from Mock Bot to initiate the conversation, but 70.styling-webchat just uses a Web Chat secret. Neither are wrong, but I think we should encourage our users to use a token instead of their secret on their client sites.
The web chat sample, if it needs updating, should be updated. I'm still of the opinion that the es_6 folder demonstrates concepts that have customer interest. @corinagum does Web Chat sample need an update?
@sgellock, yes. Previously @compulim and I didn't make changes to Web Chat looking for the secret because of the ongoing secret/token discussion, but since it sounds like we are officially promoting token retrieval we can emulate this sample to look like Web Chat. I'm happy to make those edits. :)
@sgellock and @corinagum I've labeled this for 4.6 and with a P2 label for now.
@corinagum I updated the title as well with where I _think_ we want to be, but can you determine if we want to keep sample 70 and update it, or if we want to remove it and update 01.browser-echo?
~I think the plan is to update both. Updated title accordingly :)~
Updating this: I don't know why I thought 01.browser-echo needed to be updated. It does not. My PR will only update sample 70.
