Interaction
An enum type that specifies what to do in response to an interaction with a user, such as a user
clicking a button in a card message.
Only available for Google Chat apps. Not available for Google Workspace add-ons.
To call an enum, you call its parent class, name, and property. For example,
CardService.Interaction.OPEN_DIALOG.
Properties
| Property | Type | Description |
INTERACTION_UNSPECIFIED | Enum | Default value. The action executes as normal. |
OPEN_DIALOG | Enum | Opens a dialog, a card-based interface that Chat apps use to interact with users. |
