The results of automation

What your automation achieves

These are the direct outcomes of letting your agent manage Sendbird channels.

BOTS

New bot identities

Your agent creates unique bot profiles in Sendbird. You get specific handles for different automated tasks.

MESSAGES

Programmatic delivery

The AI sends messages to any channel you specify. This keeps your communication flowing without manual typing.

CHANNELS

Targeted updates

Direct your AI to hit specific channels. You can route different types of bot messages to different groups.

The workflow

What your AI does when the command arrives.

Your agent translates your natural language requests into Sendbird API actions.

  1. Register a bot

    The agent sets up a new bot identity within your Sendbird account.

  2. Send bot updates

    Your agent uses a bot identity to post content to a channel.

    send_bot_message

  3. Send user messages

    The AI can also send standard messages as a user to any channel.

    send_message

  4. Target channels

    The agent identifies the correct channel to receive the message.
