Chat Advanced Service

Interact with the Google Chat API via AppsScripts.

Getting Started

• Create a service account that has access to Chat API
• Add ChatService to your project with Library ID 1XDYAGcUoblJ073Kjveni2WOZHpKLYE8qlYMkeHViavLXvsKnBIl1DR2A
• Send the privateKey and issuerEmail to the ChatService.init method
• The returning object has Spaces, Members, and Messages namespaces, which themselves have methods that match the reference documentation.

const Chat = ChatService.init('<privateKey>', '<issuerEmail>');
const rooms = Chat.Spaces.list();
Logger.log(rooms);

• Use the provided documentation for learn how to use all of these methods.

Motivation

AppsScript doesn't have a native advanced service to interact with the Chat API. And I need one, so I made one!

Possible Use Cases

• A Google Form that opens a new thread on a Google Chat room on submission
• Poll your domain for Chat room activity
