HI! Welcome to our community 🤗 You want/need is to create a Bot Connector App, pretty much like this app here, from our good friend @frank.dase 🙂 > **[GitHub - FrankDaze/botpress-connector: Rocket.Chat -\> Botpress Connector](https://github.com/FrankDaze/botpress-connector)** > > Rocket.Chat -\> Botpress Connector. Contribute to FrankDaze/botpress-connector development by creating an account on GitHub. Let me know if you need any assistance while creating this App. A good reference is this Demo.App that I have been crafting: [GitHub - RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Demo.App: The best Rocket.Chat Apps Engine Demo out there.](https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Demo.App/) Please, let me know if this helps! Thanks! ---

thank you so much for replying can i go with this > **[GitHub - RocketChat/rocketchat-botpress-lab-bot: A bot that integrates...](https://github.com/RocketChat/rocketchat-botpress-lab-bot/)** > > A bot that integrates RocketChat and Botpress. Contribute to RocketChat/rocketchat-botpress-lab-bot development by creating an account on GitHub. this also does the same work , rigth? and this application developed by you…🙂 and as far as from my understanding your application not uses rocket.chat app engine… and therefore this one seems easy to understand shall i refer this repo or the one you shared ---

Hi! This lab bot uses the botpress connector App from Luis Hlatki. This botpress connector will only answer for omnichannel chats. So you will be able to use botpress, insted of Amazon Lex Bot. So this will not be enough to integrate Rocket.Chat with Amazon Lex. 🙂 ---

that’s right. You can always use the realtime api as the user you want to answer with Amazon Lex, consume Amazon LEX Apis and send it back. But using Rocket.Chat App Engine will give you a simple way to deploy and use this feature, not depending on external code being run. ---

That’s when the Apps Engine comes into play 😉 If you want to keep your app to a minimum, you can register an API that will send the buttons to the desired room and use your integration with it. But you will not be able to add buttons or any other rich UI element using only Realtime or REST APIs. let me know if this helps 🙂 ---

Sure! There is a demo code here: > **[Simple API Endpoint · RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Demo.App Wiki](https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Demo.App/wiki/Simple-API-Endpoint)** > > The best Rocket.Chat Apps Engine Demo out there. Contribute to RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Demo.App development by creating an account on GitHub. You will need to have an App that will register an endpoint and receive the payload from Amazon Lex. Next, you will need to build up a message that has the buttons you get from the api, and send it with same user that you are configuring. But this approach will land you with 2 moving parts 1 - The external Amazon Lex connector 2 - The App to generate the buttons It’s optimal to run everything in one App. We have a [channel here](https://open.rocket.chat/channel/Demo-App) for the Demo-App discussion, and we can help you if you want to craft the Rocket.Chat Amazon Lex Connector App I am sure a lot of other users from our community can benefit from that. Also, if you want to discuss it further, we do it at our [Open Call](https://open.rocket.chat/channel/Rocket-Chat-Open-Community) next week 😉
