Webex App | Smartsheet bot
Users of Smartsheet are better able to maintain organization and maintain communication over the duration of projects. You’ll be able to keep current and make changes to a sheet fast and easily right from the Webex App thanks to the Smartsheet bot.
Bots in Webex App
The functionality of Webex App may easily be extended to integrate a third-party app with the assistance of bots. You have the ability to add bots to Webex App spaces, giving you the capability to communicate directly with third-party apps without leaving the area. After you have added the bot to the space, you will be able to send it a helpmessage, and the answer will include a list of the instructions that the bot is able to understand.
You have the ability to add a bot to any kind of place. For example, you might add a bot to the space where you are working on a project with other people and then interact directly with the third-party app from within your space. Alternately, you have the option of establishing an area in which only you and the bot may communicate with the third-party application.
Cards in Webex App
Within the Webex App, information may be presented by bots in a variety of formats. Users are able to interact more easily and directly with the bot’s answer to a command when cards are used. You may gather and update information by selecting options from drop-down menus, using buttons, or even typing directly into text fields.
