Zulip's APIs allow you to integrate other services with Zulip. This
|
|
|
|
|
guide should help you find the API you need:

|
|
|
* First, check if the tool you'd like to integrate with Zulip
|
|
|
|
|
[already has a native integration](/integrations).
|
|
|
|
|
* Next, check if [Zapier](https://zapier.com/apps) or

|
|
|
[IFTTT](https://ifttt.com/search) has an integration;

|
|
|
Zulip's native integrations with Zapier and IFTTT often allow
|
|
|
|
|
integrating a new service with Zulip without writing any code.
|
|
|
|
|
* If you'd like to send content into Zulip, you can
|
2018-07-04 02:08:27 +02:00
|
|
|
[write a native incoming webhook integration](/api/incoming-webhooks-overview)
|
2018-04-17 00:15:26 +02:00
|
|
|
or use [Zulip's API for sending messages](/api/stream-message).
|
|
|
|
|
* If you're building an interactive bot that reacts to activity inside
|
|
|
|
|
Zulip, you'll want to look at Zulip's
|
|
|
|
|
[Python framework for interactive bots](/api/running-bots) or
|
|
|
|
|
[Zulip's real-time events API](/api/get-events-from-queue).

|
|
|
|
And if you still need to build your own integration with Zulip, check out
|
|
|
|
|
the full [REST API](/api/rest), generally starting with
|
|
|
|
|
[installing the API client bindings](/api/installation-instructions).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In case you already know how you want to build your integration and you're
|
|
|
|
|
just looking for an API key, we've got you covered [here](/api/api-keys).
