Chat Bots

We made available a new set of API, namely the Chat API, to allow developers to create apps that interact with other users through chat messages.

Bot users have the same qualities as their human counterparts: they have profile photos and names, they exist in the FACEIT userbase, they can be direct messaged or mentioned, they can post messages, and they can be invited to and kicked out of public and private channels.

Tokens and Authentication

Access to the Chat APi happens using the OAuth2 flows on behalf of the user (access code e implicit flow). You must implement a valid OAuth2 application that will run you or your users through the authentication process in order to obtain a valid User Token. With that Token you can then use the Chat API.

Reading and Posting messages

We provide REST-ful endpoints to use the Chat API. Please check the latest documentation and API reference here.
