Client libraries

  • RBM client libraries simplify the creation of RBM agents using Node.js, C#, Python, or Java.

  • The libraries are open source and available in internet repositories for easy use.

  • Before getting started, you need to register an agent and install the required software for your chosen language.

  • Setup involves downloading and extracting a sample agent and configuring your RBM credentials.

  • Further learning resources include RBM agent best practices and samples.
