[Bug]: Adaptive cards not sending payload data from iOS Teams Mobile app #9330
Description
Target Platforms
iOS
SDK Version
3.1.0
Application Name
Microsoft Teams (IOS mobile)
Problem Description
I have a MS Teams chat bot that utilises adaptive cards for visualisation and data collection.
The feature having the issue is a subscription configuration card that recently started writing null values to the database for fields that should not be null as the are required.
These null values started appearing from December 16th.
No change in the card payload or data model occurred prior to the issue being noticed.
Desktop version in Windows and Mac OS works as expected with no null values
