Hi @dharmendrasha, thanks for asking the question!
We generally don't recommend using dialogs over modals because we won't add any new features to dialogs. That being said, if you have a certain reason to still use dialogs, checking my comment at https://github.com/slackapi/bolt-js/issues/265#issuecomment-537449896 can be helpful. More specifically, something like this should work for you:
app.action({ callback_id: interactiveEnums.TASK_VIEW_SUBMIT }, async ({ ack }) => {
await ack();
});
I hope this was helpful to you.
