Set HTTP callback to be called on group events.

Variables

The following table shows input values (you send them with the API call) and returned output values.

Variable Required Description
Input base:
action yes = set_http_callback
apikey yes Your personal developer's API key.
secret yes Security code of the group you are using.
secret_sha1 optional The same as "secret" but hashed using SHA1 (useful if you don't want to keep plain customer's passwords)
Input:
group yes the group name (must be listed with SmartBots!)
app_name yes The application name (provided by developer, visible to the user)
app_uuid yes The application UUID (provided by developer, not visible)
url yes The URL to be called on group events
Output (JSON formatted):
OK command completed successfully
anything else Request failed, the fail reason is returned

Comments

This API call required information both from developer of an application (which received the callback) and from a customer.

The developer should provide the following data:

  • apikey - see SmartBots docs
  • app_name - developer gives a readable name for his app. User can see the list of connected apps while checking his group security settings
  • app_uuid - the UUID of the app. Developer generates this UUID on its own
  • url - the URL to deliver callbacks to

The user should provide by developer's request:

  • group - the group name
  • secret - the Group Security Code

Callback persistence

All callbacks are being REMOVED when user changes the Group Security Code. Once removed, you should ask customer to re-add callback by providing a new Security Code.

Callbacks

Your URL gets POST request when following events occur:

  • callback_set - when callback has been set up
  • group_chat - when group chat message is received
  • callback_removed - when callback is removed by user's request
