I'm planning some kind of Google Hangouts bot/integration which is not following premises from code samples at: https://developers.google.com/hangouts/chat/concepts/
This won't be a "reply-bot" for incoming messages, it will start conversation-chats or rooms proactively to get people in contact.
From my application, I expect to make questions to users like: "Hello! John Doe has requested access to your server. Do you allow him to get access? (Allowed responses: yes/no)"
So, they guy might reply: "yes" And all the devops mechanism will be triggered.
Similar use-case for many people (chat room for i.e. the unix team): (Here no response is expected, just to start room chat) "Critical incident at our main router detected All of you where identified as responsible to solve this issue."
I would really appreciate any suggestion or whatever on how to approach this.
Best regards to everyone! :)
Hangout Chat bots are currently not allowed to proactively contact people. They will need a person to add them first before being able to make interactions.
