title: How to user Direct Line to create a real-time messaging in MVC
body: <p>Is there a way to use direct line from a bot framework to create a real-time messaging application? I need call my Bot directly from a custom MVC application.</p>
  
  <p>The Microsoft Bot Connector Direct Line REST API allows me to do this, but not in real time. Currently I have to make a post action to refresh the screen and get these messages, and it requires a client post action. Do you know a way to achieve this real-time?</p>
