Node.js Teams botbuilder package: Message extension - Responding with a card inserted into the compose message area, inserts card in compose area for all chat windows within teams app

[sanasz91mdev]

Describe the bug Node.js Teams botbuilder package: Responding with a card inserted into the compose message area inserts card in compose area for all chats within teams app

sample code

export async function processExtensionSubmit(context: any, action: any) {
    try {
        var cardTemplate = require('../adaptiveCards/submit-ticket-msg-extension.json');
        var member = await Utils.getMemberInfo(context);
        var ticket = new Ticket();
        var ticketResponse = await ticket.submitTickets(action.data, member.email);
        if (ticketResponse.result == true) {
            var parameters: any = {};
            parameters.ticketId = { ticketId: ticketResponse.data.id, title: ticketResponse.data.title, type: action.data.internalCategory == "true" ? "Internal" : "External" };
            const card = Utils.renderAdaptiveCard(cardTemplate, parameters.ticketId);

            //send noti to channel

            await sendNotificationToChannel(context, card);

            //send a composition extension
            return Promise.resolve({
                composeExtension: {
                    attachments: [card],
                    attachmentLayout: "list",
                    type: 'result'
                }
            } as MessagingExtensionActionResponse);
        }
        else {
            return {
                task: {
                    type: "message",
                    value: "Could not process request. An Error occurred."
                }
            } as MessagingExtensionActionResponse;

        }
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
        return ({
            task: {
                type: "message",
                value: "Could not process request. An Error occurred."
            }
        }) as MessagingExtensionActionResponse;
    }
}

Expected behavior Card sent as a Message Extension response with in composeExtension should appear in compose area Only in chat where message extension action was clicked, not in every chat window

Screenshots see how performing a n action via message extension creates a ticket in compose message area of ALL chat windows rather than creating in only the compose area of chat window where message extension action was clicked

• OS: Windows 10 Enterprise
• tool Visual Studio Code
• Teams app development using BotBuilder package on : Node.js

I reffered the documentation below

Respond with a card inserted into the compose message area The most common way to respond to the composeExtension/submitAction request is with a card inserted into the compose message area. The user submits the card to the conversation. For more information on using cards, see cards and card actions.

Microsoft docs - Build message extensions)**

Is there something wrong with the code? Why is response appearing in compose area of all chat windows? what should i do to get rid of it?
