In-Meeting Chat & Visuals

Read the chat, post messages, and show images through your bot
View as Markdown

MeetStream bots are participants, not just recorders — they can post in the chat, show visuals, and hand you the full chat log afterwards.

Send a chat message (live)

$curl -X POST "https://api.meetstream.ai/api/v1/bots/<BOT_ID>/send_message" \
>  -H "Authorization: Token <YOUR_API_KEY>" \
>  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>  -d '{ "message": "The summary will be in #sales-notes after the call." }'

Response: { "status": "accepted", "bot_id": "...", "command": "sendmsg" }. CLI: meetstream bot send-message <id> <text>.

Show an image or GIF (live)

send_image displays a publicly reachable image as the bot’s video frame — animated GIFs included. Great for QR codes, “recording in progress” cards, or a bit of personality:

$curl -X POST "https://api.meetstream.ai/api/v1/bots/<BOT_ID>/send_image" \
>  -H "Authorization: Token <YOUR_API_KEY>" \
>  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>  -d '{ "img_url": "https://your-cdn.com/recording-notice.gif", "display_duration": 30 }'

display_duration (seconds) is optional. The URL must be public — raw base64 is rejected.

Set the bot’s presence at join time

Two create_bot fields shape how the bot shows up:

  • bot_message — a chat message posted automatically when the bot joins (“Hi! I’m recording this call for notes.”)
  • bot_image_url — a public image used as the bot’s avatar

Read the chat afterwards

$curl "https://api.meetstream.ai/api/v1/bots/<BOT_ID>/get_chats" \
>  -H "Authorization: Token <YOUR_API_KEY>"

The response includes session metadata (total messages, unique speakers, meeting id) plus the per-speaker message log — ready for sentiment analysis, question extraction, or CRM notes.
