I'm stuck these days with a google chat API and I try to make my bot look like the cool ones so I add the card feature. But I'm experiencing this problem I can't mention a user. in my old bot (before adding the card) I had this JSON
"text":" hello there my friend"
and I always got a response that says
@Theodosis hello there my friend
but now that I switched to the card I can't mention a user now I have this JSON
{
"cards" : [ {
"sections" : [ {
"widgets" : [ {
"textParagraph" : {
"text" : "<users/USER_ID> hello there my friend"
}
}, {
"buttons" : [ {
"textButton" : {
"onClick" : {
"openLink" : {
"url" : "some Method"
}
},
"text" : "this is a button"
}
} ]
} ]
} ]
} ],
"thread" : {
"name" : "a link here"
}
}
and my response is
hello there my friend
it completely ignores everything in inside this <> I have also tried to do an HTML hack and removed this with <users/USER_ID> but that didn't work as well I get a response like this
hello there my friend
but I expect this
@Theodosis hello there my friend
and I can't seem to find any solution on the internet
