Short answer

Can I manage Gotify users with my AI?

Yes. Your AI can create new users, change passwords, and pull user lists or current account details. You can handle these administrative tasks directly in your chat window.

Where every action lands.

Administrative outcomes

The AI handles the technical execution of these four management tasks.

USER SETUP

New account creation

The AI uses the creation tool to set up new users in your Gotify instance immediately.

SECURITY

Password resets

You can trigger password changes for existing users without logging into the web UI.

AUDIT

User list retrieval

The AI pulls a full list of registered users so you can see who has access.

HUMAN

Manual oversight

You still need to manually review permission levels or delete users since the AI lacks those tools.

The workflow

What your AI does when a request arrives.

The AI translates your natural language into specific API calls to your Gotify instance.

  1. Identify users

    The AI scans your instance to find specific accounts or list everyone currently registered.

    get_users

  2. Add new accounts

    When you ask to add someone, the AI registers the new user with the provided details.

    create_user

  3. Update credentials

    The AI updates the password for a specific user upon your command.

    change_password

  4. Verify identity

    The AI checks the details of the user currently making the connection.

    get_current_user
