Chatbot → Create a Chatbot Line

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation creates a new chatbot line in a specified chat within a Basecamp project. It is useful for automating the addition of chatbot messages to a chat, supporting HTML content formatting including tables and other tags. This can be applied in scenarios such as sending automated updates, notifications, or chatbot responses within a project chat environment.

Use Case Examples

Automatically post a chatbot message to a project chat when a task is completed.
Send formatted chatbot lines with tables or structured content to a chat for reporting purposes.

Properties

Name	Meaning
Chatbot Key	The key for the chatbot, used in the API endpoint path to identify the chatbot.
Project ID	The ID of the project (bucket), used in the API endpoint path to specify the project.
chatId	The ID of the chat/campfire, used in the API endpoint path to specify the chat where the line will be created.
Content	The body content for the chatbot line, supporting HTML formatting including additional tags like table, tr, td.
Content Parameter Name	Modifies the name of the required 'content' parameter to support webhooks from third-party sources.
Return Full Response	Whether to return the full HTTP response (status code, headers, body) instead of only the response body.
Request Options	Additional request options such as batching, ignoring SSL issues, proxy settings, and timeout configuration.

Output

JSON

response - The response from the API call, which can be either the full HTTP response or just the response body depending on the 'Return Full Response' setting.

Dependencies

Requires an OAuth2 API credential for Basecamp authentication.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the chatbot key, project ID, and chat ID are correct and correspond to existing resources in Basecamp.
If the request fails due to SSL issues, consider enabling the 'Ignore SSL Issues' option if appropriate.
Check the API rate limits and use batching options to avoid throttling errors.
If the response is unexpected, enable 'Return Full Response' to get detailed HTTP response information for debugging.
