API

[schedules000]

I'm told that my chatbot needs to pull information from an API in order to answer questions about meetings. Does code4recovery have an API, and if so, how do I give the chatbot access to it? We use the Jotform Chatbot. Thanks.

Hi schedules000,

Technically speaking, no we don't provide an API to facilitate others using the data from sites where our 12 Step Meeting List is used. That being said, many sites do expose a JSON feed for other applications to use. You could use #this specification document to possibly import the site data and use as you see fit.

Hope this helps...

hi @schedules000 thanks for following up on your earlier discussion about training the jotform plugin

sounds like it still hasn't been cracked yet. to connect what @kiyote33 said to your problem, your own site should ideally be able to function as an API for the plugin, since that's where the data is. your meeting data feed is available here: https://ct-aa.org/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=meetings - is there a way to use that to train the jotform chatbot? please see the spec doc that @kiyote33 linked above for how to decode that format
