Webex App | Notion bot
Keep teamwork seamless and stay up-to-date with pages in your Notion databases when you link your Notion account. You and your team can interact with the bot in a space to connect a database, then track and share updates to its content. While each space can only be linked to one database at a time, multiple spaces can link to the bot and connect more databases.
Bots in Webex App
Examples of Cisco-developed bots in use.
Bots can help to extend the functionality of Webex App to include a third-party app. You can add bots to Webex App spaces and interact directly with the third-party app from the space. When you've added
the bot to the space, you can send ahelp
message to the bot and the response
includes the commands that the bot supports.
You can add a bot to any type of space; add a bot to your project space with other people and interact directly with the third-party app from your space. Or you can create a space with just you and the bot to interact with the third-party app.
Webex App Hub contains a catalog of bots and apps developed by Cisco and third-party developers.
Cards in Webex App
Bots present information within Webex App in various ways. Bot cards make it easier for users to interact directly with the bot’s response to a command. You can select from drop-down menus, use buttons, and even use text fields to update and gather information.
See Buttons and Cards for your Webex apps.
Report any issues on the bot with cards to devsupport@webex.com.
