Hi,

I was trying to integrate Rocket.chat into my own app and I am wondering if there is any way to access the chat data like message/room data. I am assuming there is a dashboard or console for this but I didn’t find any entrance. Could anyone please help me? Thank you.

Hi @shifengh ! Welcome to our community!

Rocket.Chat is **very flexible** you can certainly add Rocket.Chat into your projects, get and change all kind of informations.

For that you will have two options:

> **[REST API](https://developer.rocket.chat/reference/api/rest-api)**

and

> **[Realtime API](https://developer.rocket.chat/reference/api/realtime-api)**

Based on that APIs, we had a lot of development around a [Google Summer of Code project this year](https://docs.rocket.chat/contributors/annual-contribution-programs/google-summer-of-code/google-summer-of-code-2022) that may be what you are looking for:
