Is it possible to have a Slack bot that passes information to and from a Bubble app, such that replying to the bot serves as data input for the database, and the bot can retrieve information from the database to answer queries in the Slack channel. Possibly with Zapier?
Reading the info on Slack website about how to build a slack bot: https://api.slack.com/authentication/basics
Knowing Bubble has a database to store and retrieve data AND can receive API calls (webhooks) and call API's it should be possible to use Bubble and Slack to create a functioning Slack Bot.

I would like to know that we are having a lead generation campaign running on Facebook but few of the times our staff isn't available to answer the query on Facebook messenger, so based on that short-coming I am thinking to devise a mechanism that "If within 1 hour of user's message no one replies to him then an automated BOT message should get sent to him."
Please don't deprecate this question as it is based entirely on knowledge. And if perhaps someone has hints or links on how to achieve this thing then I will really appreciate it.
Thanks.
Some options:
You can query your /conversations edge every X minutes to detect when there is a message from a user which has not been replied to, then you would send the automated message using Send API.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v10.0/conversation
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/reference/send-api/
You can use webhook data for incoming messages to create a task that will run at received_time + 60 minutes, find the thread in your conversations edge based on PSID and then check if there has been a reply
Alternatively you can check out Handover Protocol which allows a Page to simultaneously use a Messenger Bot and Live chat agent to handle messaging

I created a function in azure functions that is triggered by http request.
Also I have a web app that used for clients to subscribe to my app.
My app and web app is written in .net.
My goal is to set a subscription button in the web app, so when the user subscribe it would allow me to get push notifications about new mail in his outlook inbox folder and send http requests to my azure function that includes the content of the newly received mail.
I read the doc about this API but couldnt understand it and what should I do to get my goal. Also I didn't find any examples for this.
How can I achieve my goal?
There are two options you can try for your scenario :
Option 1: you can create Function APP with Outlook connector and Microsoft flow ( you can listen for new emails using Office 365 API -> "When New Email arrives" and also can be posted the payload using http trigger function
Option 2:
Creating Push notification in your app when you received, you can push the payload to
Azure by a wehbook using Webjobs or Functions
Documentation Outlook REST API V2.0 : Push Notification
To play around with REST API use this URL :https://oauthplay.azurewebsites.net
good luck
I was trying to built a bot which interacts with multiple users.
The Microsoft Bot Builder seems nice to me.
I followed their examples and tried them out.
Bot Builder Restify and so on
There are few things which are not clear to me.
How can I post a message to bot rest endpoint?
The emulator seems to have been taking care of such details. But in a real application, in which format i should sent a message?
How does the bot interacts with multiple users? In the emulator, there is only one user, what happens if there are several persons talk to the bot at the same time in a real application?
I think "chatconnector" somehow doing the job, but I am not sure.
I hope someone could point out examples or give answers below to clarify these to me.
Thanks in advance!
1) Messages are sent using industry-standard REST and JSON over HTTPS. Although you can call the bot's endpoint directly, this would bypass channels and security. In the Microsoft Bot Framework architecture, clients communicate with a channel connector and the channel connector calls the bot. When the bot responds, it sends a message to the channel connector and the connector calls the client. The channel connectors transform messages from the channel's specific schema to the Bot Framework's generic activity schema and back. They also verify that callers are authorized using JWT tokens.
This documentation on Authentication might help clear things up some: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/bot-framework/rest-api/bot-framework-rest-connector-authentication
2) Group conversations are handled differently, depending on the channel. This sample demonstrates some of the group conversation features in the Bot Builder Node sdk: https://github.com/Microsoft/BotBuilder-Samples/tree/master/Node/core-GetConversationMembers
we have built a very simple bot that simply passes any message onto our own application. (we want to answer questions asked from our customers to be handled straight from our CRM application for customer service purpose)
Now, the bot is declined with message:
Thank you for your submission. We tested the messenger experience on your associated page and received either no response from your messenger bot or received a human response. Please resubmit with the new, improved version of your bot.
Which raises the question for me: is it even allowed to do human assistance via the messenger API? Or is it bot only? I have read through all the platform policies, use case examples, etc.
So, how do I create the simplest integration? (send message straight through to one of our customer service users?)
Making a bot is easy if you use Wit.ai which is an NLP and speech API. It can integrate with the messenger/graph API. Basically, you send text to wit.ai and it returns the intent. For example: you send "get me a large pizza" to Wit and it returns something like (intent = pizza, size=large, time = now) You could also try api.ai but in my opinion, it is not as good yet.
I am using sendgrid api to send various email(s) my user(s). At sendgrid portal they have give us statistics in a limited way. I can't search my queries as i want. thats why I want that data in my own database. so, I can query as per my need.
My question is, Is there any way to get data/statistics my of account? any service of sendgrid which is provide my data?
thanks
If you enable our event webhook, your application can consume all the data/statistics itself and store that in your db. So for example, SendGrid will post info on the following types of events back to your site (Processed, Dropped, Delivered, Deferred, Bounced, Opened, Link Clicked, Marked as Spam, or Unsubscribed)
You can get more info on our event webhook here:
Event Webhook Docs
Those docs show examples on the data we post to your site as well as the parameters we send for each type of event.
