NEW

Are you building Copilot, Teams or Outlook scenarios powered by Adaptive Cards?

The Adaptive Card Documentation Hub is the new one-stop-shop for all your Adaptive Card needs! It has all the resources you're looking for, including complete documentation for many new features, such as Responsive layout, Icon, Badge, Carousel, Charts, and much more!

Important note about accessibility: In version 1.3 of the schema we introduced a label property on Inputs to improve accessibility. If the Host app you are targeting supports v1.3 you should use label instead of a TextBlock as seen in some samples below. Once most Host apps have updated to the latest version we will update the samples accordingly.

TextRun

Defines a single run of formatted text. A TextRun with no properties set can be represented in the json as string containing the text as a shorthand for the json object. These two representations are equivalent.
