Los diálogos son interfaces basadas en ventanas basadas en ventanas que las apps de Chat abren para interactuar con los usuarios. Para ayudar a los usuarios a completar procesos de varios pasos, las apps pueden abrir diálogos secuenciales.
Los diálogos son útiles para muchos tipos de interacciones del usuario, incluidas las siguientes:
- Recopilar información de los usuarios
- Autenticar usuarios con servicios web
- Configura la app de Chat
En esta guía, se describe cómo implementar diálogos para tu app de Chat.
Requisitos previos
Para implementar diálogos y ejecutar los ejemplos de esta guía, necesitas lo siguiente:
Node.js
- Una cuenta de Google Workspace con acceso a Google Chat
- Una app de Chat. Para compilar una app de Chat, sigue esta guía de inicio rápido.
- Si se abre un diálogo en respuesta a un comando de barra, se configura un comando de barra para la app de Chat.
Apps Script
- Una cuenta de Google Workspace con acceso a Google Chat
- Una app de Chat. Para compilar una app de Chat, sigue esta guía de inicio rápido.
- Si se abre un diálogo en respuesta a un comando de barra, se configura un comando de barra para la app de Chat.
Python
- Una cuenta de Google Workspace con acceso a Google Chat
- Una app de Chat. Para compilar una app de Chat, sigue esta guía de inicio rápido.
- Si se abre un diálogo en respuesta a un comando de barra, se configura un comando de barra para la app de Chat.
Cómo funcionan los diálogos
Cuando un usuario hace clic en un botón de una tarjeta o emite un comando de barra, la app de Chat puede abrir un diálogo para interactuar con el usuario.


El diálogo facilita la interacción del usuario al permitir que ingrese información con widgets, como campos de entrada de texto. Cuando recopilan mucha información de los usuarios, las aplicaciones de Chat pueden abrir diálogos secuenciales.


Cuando finalice, la app de chat recibirá los valores que los usuarios ingresaron en el diálogo como JSON. Infórmeles a los usuarios que su interacción tuvo éxito respondiendo con un mensaje de texto o una tarjeta.
Abrir un diálogo
Tu app de Chat puede abrir un diálogo en respuesta a un usuario:
- Haz clic en un botón de una tarjeta.
- Emitir un comando de barra
Cuando un usuario solicita un diálogo, tu app de Chat recibe un Event
de Google Chat en el que se cumple la siguiente condición:
isDialogEvent
estrue
.DialogEventType
especifica si un usuario abre un diálogo (REQUEST_DIALOG
), hace clic en un botón de un diálogo (SUBMIT_DIALOG
) o cancela un diálogo (CANCEL_DIALOG
).
Por ejemplo, cuando un usuario abre un diálogo, tu app de Chat recibe un Event
como el de Google Chat:
JSON
{
"type": enum (EventType),
"eventTime": string,
"threadKey": string,
"message": {
object (Message)
},
"user": {
object (User)
},
"space": {
object (Space)
},
"action": {
object (FormAction)
},
"configCompleteRedirectUrl": string,
"isDialogEvent": true,
"dialogEventType": "REQUEST_DIALOG",
"common": {
object (CommonEventObject)
}
}
Tu app de Chat puede abrir un diálogo mostrando un ActionResponse
de "type": "DIALOG"
con un DialogAction
que incluya una descripción JSON del diálogo:
JSON
{
"action_response": {
"type": "DIALOG",
"dialog_action": {
"dialog": {
"body": {
"sections": [
{
"header": "Add new contact",
"widgets": [
{
"textInput": {
"label": "Name",
"type": "SINGLE_LINE",
"name": "contactName"
}
},
{
"textInput": {
"label": "Address",
"type": "MULTIPLE_LINE",
"name": "address"
}
},
{
"decoratedText": {
"text": "Add to favorites",
"switchControl": {
"controlType": "SWITCH",
"name": "saveFavorite"
}
}
},
{
"decoratedText": {
"text": "Merge with existing contacts",
"switchControl": {
"controlType": "SWITCH",
"name": "mergeContact",
"selected": true
}
}
},
{
"buttonList": {
"buttons": [
{
"text": "Next",
"onClick": {
"action": {
"function": "openSequentialDialog"
}
}
}
]
}
}
]
}
]
}
}
}
}
}
Abrir un diálogo en respuesta a un clic en un botón en una tarjeta
Cuando un usuario hace clic en un botón de una tarjeta, tu app recibe un Event
en el que:
EventType
estáCARD_CLICKED
.DialogEventType
estáREQUEST_DIALOG
.
Para abrir un cuadro de diálogo, especifica:
onClick.action.function
como el nombre de una función que abre un diálogo Esa función debe mostrar lo siguiente:- Un
ActionResponse
de"type": "DIALOG"
- Un
DialogAction
que incluye una descripción JSON del diálogo.
- Un
onClick.action.interaction
comoOPEN_DIALOG
Esta propiedad le indica a Google Chat que la app quiere abrir un diálogo.
En este ejemplo, una app de Chat responde a un Event
de MESSAGE
con una tarjeta que tiene un botón que abre un diálogo:
Node.js
/**
* Responds to messages that have links whose URLs
* match URL patterns configured for link previews.
*
* @param {Object} event The event object from Chat
* API.
*
* @return {Object} Response from the Chat app
* attached to the message with the previewed link.
*/
exports.onMessage = function onMessage(req, res) {
// Store the Google Chat event as a variable.
var event = req.body;
if (req.method === "GET" || !event.message) {
res.send("Hello! This function is meant to be used in a Google Chat " +
"Space.");
}
// Responds with a card that prompts the user to add a contact
else {
res.json({
"cardsV2": [{
"cardId": "addContact",
"card": {
"header": {
"title": "Rolodex",
"subtitle": "Manage your contacts!",
"imageUrl": "https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/product/2x/contacts_48dp.png",

}

}
]
}
}]
});
}
// Respond to button clicks on attached cards
if(event.type === "CARD_CLICKED") {
if (event.common.invokedFunction == "openDialog") {
res.openDialog(event);
};

Cómo unir varias interfaces de tarjeta
Cuando las interacciones del usuario requieren más de una tarjeta, puede abrir una nueva tarjeta desde el mismo diálogo al mostrar otro.
Cuando los usuarios hacen clic en un botón de un diálogo, tu app recibe un Event
en el que:
EventType
estáCARD_CLICKED
.DialogEventType
estáSUBMIT_DIALOG
.
Dado que un diálogo ya está abierto, no especifiques onClick.action.interaction
como lo haces cuando abres un diálogo desde una tarjeta de conversación. En su lugar, muestra solo onClick.action.function
como el nombre de una función que abre un diálogo.
En este ejemplo, una app de Chat responde a un CARD_CLICKED
Event
desde un clic de botón de diálogo abriendo otro diálogo:
Node.js
// Respond to button clicks on attached cards
if(event.type === "CARD_CLICKED") {
// Open the first dialog.
if (event.common.invokedFunction == "openDialog") {
res.openDialog(event);
}
// Open the second dialog.
if (event.common.invokedFunction == "openSequentialDialog") {
res.openSequentialDialog(event);
}
}

Recibir datos del formulario de los diálogos
Cuando los usuarios hacen clic en un botón de un diálogo, los datos que ingresan se envían a la app de Chat y esta recibe un Event
, en el que ocurre lo siguiente:
EventType
estáCARD_CLICKED
.DialogEventType
estáSUBMIT_DIALOG
.
Los datos que los usuarios ingresan en el diálogo están disponibles en Event
como Event.common.formInputs
, un mapa en el que las claves son ID de string asignadas a cada widget de diálogo y los valores que representan las entradas del usuario para cada widget. Los diferentes objetos representan diferentes tipos de datos de entrada. Por ejemplo, Event.common.formInputs.stringInputs
representa entradas de string.
Cuando un usuario envía un diálogo, tu app de Chat recibe un Event
como el de Google Chat:
JSON
{
"type": enum (EventType),
"eventTime": string,
"threadKey": string,
"message": {
object (Message)
},
"user": {
object (User)
},
"space": {
object (Space)
},
"action": {
object (FormAction)
},
"configCompleteRedirectUrl": string,
// Indicates that this event is dialog-related.
"isDialogEvent": true,
// Indicates that a user clicked a button, and all data
// they entered in the dialog is included in Event.common.formInputs.
"dialogEventType": "SUBMIT_DIALOG",
"common": {
"userLocale": string,
"hostApp": enum (HostApp),
"platform": enum (Platform),
"timeZone": {
object (TimeZone)
},
// Represents user data entered in a dialog
"formInputs": {
// Represents string data entered in a dialog, like text input fields
// and check boxes
"stringInputs": {
// An array of strings entered by the user in a dialog.
"value": [
string
]
}
},
"parameters": {
string: string,
...
},
"invokedFunction": string
}
}
Tu app puede acceder al primer valor ingresado por el usuario en event.common.formInputs.NAME.stringInputs.value[0]
, donde NAME es el campo name
de un widget TextInput
.
Después de recibir los datos del formulario de diálogo, la app de Chat debería responder confirmando la recepción o mostrando un error. Para ello, muestra un ActionResponse
:
- Para confirmar la recepción correcta, responde con un
ActionResponse
que tenga"actionStatus": "OK"
. - Para mostrar un error, responde con un
ActionResponse
que tenga"actionStatus": "ERROR MESSAGE"
.
En el siguiente ejemplo, se verifica la presencia de un valor "name". Si no está presente, la app muestra un error. Si está presente, la app confirma la recepción de los datos del formulario y cierra el cuadro de diálogo.
Node.js

Cómo responder a un diálogo con un mensaje de texto o una tarjeta
Para responder a un diálogo con un mensaje de texto simple o una tarjeta, autentica con una cuenta de servicio y, luego, llama a spaces.messages.create
con la API de REST de Google Chat para enviar una respuesta asíncrona.
Ejemplo completo: Rolodex, el contacto que administra la aplicación de Chat
En este ejemplo, una app de Chat abre un diálogo para que el usuario pueda agregar detalles sobre un contacto, como el nombre, el correo electrónico y la dirección.

Límites y consideraciones
Tenga en cuenta estos límites y consideraciones para los diálogos:
- Las tarjetas v1, que son obsoletas, no son compatibles con los diálogos. En su lugar, use tarjetas v2.
- Algunos widgets y propiedades de tarjetas aún no son compatibles y no se mostrarán si los agregas a una tarjeta de diálogo (pero estamos trabajando para admitirlos pronto). Para ver qué widgets y propiedades aún no son compatibles, consulta Tarjeta en la referencia de la API de REST de Chat. Si un widget o una propiedad no son compatibles, la descripción incluye la frase "No es compatible con las aplicaciones de Chat".
- Los siguientes tipos de datos de entrada de los usuarios no son compatibles con los diálogos (pero estamos trabajando para admitirlos pronto):
- No se admiten sugerencias de autocompletado generadas por el servidor, pero sí sugerencias que se muestran con la respuesta del diálogo.
onChangeAction
: No se admite una propiedad de algunos widgets de tarjetas, comoSwitchControl
, que especifica unAction
para realizar cuando se cambia el widget, como girar un interruptor.
Diálogos de depuración
A medida que implementes diálogos, es posible que debas depurar tu aplicación de Chat si lees los registros de la aplicación. Para leer los registros, visita el Explorador de registros en Google Cloud Console.
