CB Bot Dev - External API calls

[phasemaster]

Hi all,

I'm building a detailed all-in-one bot for a model, to help track various insights in a room as well as provide useful features. There's a separate platform that we've build that collects room info from the Events API that already compiles a lot of useful insights as is, although we cant get any specifics like when a private is started / stopped and what the token price it's set to. We were hoping to include this in the bot and provide the useful features that can be fetched from the platform and used in a room using an external api already built.
For example, fetching all the Menu items via the API, and in the platform alerting of the most popular items or goals etc.

Is it possible to make external api calls from a bot, or are we wasting time with this?

If you use a custom browser add-on. There is no way for CB's app/bot API to extend to external calls natively.

You can know when the private has started/stopped by checking the room_status (public or private).
You can access the cost of the private (private_show_tokens_per_minute), with that info and a basic ticker you can easily calculate earnings over time.
There is no way to know who is spying or tokens earned from spying.

Cheers.

External calls are not allowed. The nearest you can come on Chaturbate would be to use Longpoll with which an html page with javascript hooks can react to public chat as well as many triggers such as room entry, tips, etc. There is no indication that the html page has to run on the broadcaster's pc, just that they need to provide a key to make the connection, if that helps.
