Hangouts Chat is more than just a messaging tool for user communication. It features a bot framework allowing developers to build bots that can retrieve information, automate tasks, or perform other heavy-lifting for users. While bots can respond synchronously to user requests, there are situations where asynchronous messages are needed. These include notifying users when long-running jobs have completed, alerts such as when a server goes down or when a new customer is added to the database. In this video, engineer Wesley Chun shows viewers the different ways the framework supports asynchronous messages and shows you how to use them.

This video is also subtitled in Chinese, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish.
