Why need to have BOT?
You can create as many BOT as you want and make it work for you as our robot.
In my case I create one to alert me once something went wrong,
I integrated with Nagios with the bot API as mentions above.
1. Create new bot, I named it: Nagios_Alert
2. Add bot to a group (what ever you want and add other member as you want to)
3. Integrated with Nagios, by send the message as bot user to post the message,
So all the members will see the message in the group.
