LocalChat Autoresponder (add-on)

Revision as of 15:38, 1 February 2019

Overview

LocalChat Autoresponder allows your Personal Bot to auto-respond in Local Chat using rules you create

Your bot can perform several tasks while auto-responding:

1. Respond with text to match messages
2. Send group invitation and/or inventory offers
3. Respond to several messages at once

Creating rules & examples

To create a new rule, visit LocalChat Autoresponder page and click Add rule.

Each rule comes with following options:

• Match - acts as a trigger message for every rule
• Case sensitive - defines if your Match message is case-sensitive or not
• Say to chat - A message that bot sends out
• Show variables - Shows variables: "%SL_NAME%" and "%FIRST_NAME%"
• Invite to group - Sends a group invite
• Give inventory - Sends an inventory offer
• Stop if rule matches - Read more below

Rules with text replies

Rules with text replies will trigger when bot hears a Match message in chat. When Match message is "Hi", bot will reply "Hello!" (view screenshot)

You can also create a next rule with "Stop if rule matches" enabled - in this case, when someone sends "Hi how are you" - bot will reply to both rules.

Rules with invitation/inventory offer

Bot can send invitations and/or inventory offers. For example, if bot hears "invite and landmark" in chat, it will send group invitation, landmark and a message!

Examples

1. Simple reply-to-all

2. Multiple variants with a default reply

3. Matching several rules

This ruleset shows how multiple rules can match one message (saying "hi" or "hello" and then "Welcome")

Rule 1
Match: hi
Say to chat: Hi there %FIRST_NAME%!
Stop if matches: NO

Rule 2
Match: hello
Say to chat: Hello %FIRST_NAME%!
Stop if matches: NO

Rule 3
Match: -- empty --
Say to chat: Welcome to our office! You can find more info on boards
Stop if matches: YES

Useful hints

• If you leave Match message blank, that will be your default rule
• There is no limit on how many rules you can create
• The rules on top take priority over the one on the bottom, eg if you have a rule that says "if: hi" the bot will say "hello" and another that says "if: hi how are you" the bot will say "i am fine thank you", the one on top will occur i.e the bot will say hello.
• If you are using give inventory feature, make sure the object has copy + transfer permissions
