POST /getmessage

Available with the Online Chat feature.

A request-notification to Pyrus about a new message from an external system. The message is created as a comment in the task. Pyrus automatically determines in which task to write the comment, depending on the user's settings. At the same time, Pyrus creates an external communication channel in the task to communicate with the sender from the Pyrus interface. When the user writes a comment in the external channel, Pyrus calls the sendmessage method. Thus, the integrations/getmessage request and the sendmessage webhook support online chat and enable creating and processing requests based on inquiries in the account connected to the extension.

Parameters:

  • account_id — string. Unique identifier of the integration account in the external system (group ID in VKontakte, bot name in Telegram, etc.);

  • channel_id — string. Unique identifier of the channel for messages in the integration (chat ID in Telegram, user ID in VKontakte, etc.). Max length 300 characters;
