Getting Credentials

How to set up Rocket.Chat:

  1. Create a user that will be used to post messages, and set its
    credentials at credentials file.
  2. Create a Rocket.Chat outgoing webhook by logging in as admin to
    Rocket.Chat and going to
    Administration > Integrations > New Integration.
  3. Select Outgoing Webhook.
  4. Set Event Trigger section to value Message Sent.
  5. Fill out the details, including the channel you want the bot
    listen to. Optionally, it is possible to set the
    Trigger Words section with @yourbotname so that the bot
    doesn’t trigger on everything that is said.
  6. Set your URLs section to the Rasa URL where you have your
    webhook running in Core or your public address with
    /webhooks/rocketchat/webhook, e.g.
    http://test.example.com/webhooks/rocketchat/webhook.

For more information on the Rocket.Chat Webhooks, see the
Rocket.Chat Guide.

Running on RocketChat

If you want to connect to the Rocket.Chat input channel using the run
script, e.g. using:

  rasa run

you need to supply a credentials.yml with the following content:

rocketchat:
  user: "yourbotname"
  password: "YOUR_PASSWORD"
  server_url: "https://demo.rocket.chat"
