Bot API

The Bot API helps you send a message from a bot, set a menu, and manage bots.

To use the Bot API, you need an access token that you can get by authenticating with a user account or a service account. The API scopes are bot.message, bot, and bot.read.

API scopes

• The bot.message scope can be used for API operations related to bot messages, menus, and message rooms.
• The bot scope can be used for all the API operations. Use this scope to add and manage bots.
• The bot.read scope has read permission only. For more information, see the description of each API operation.
