Hi,

I am the author of a xmpp chatbot that uses HipChat. I am trying to send a custom stanza using xmpp to create an application card (https://developer.atlassian.com/hipchat/guide/sending-messages) instead of using the rest api. I cannot find any documentation on how to do this. I see that HipChat supports xhtml-im (per https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/38838139) but I do not know what the server expects to create an application card.

I am able to create the application card through the rest api with the following json payload:

{
  "color": "purple", 
  "message_format": "text", 
  "message": "my message",
  "notify": false,
  "card": {
    "style": "application",
    "format": "compact",
    "url": "https://www.atlassian.com",
    "id": "c253adc6-11fa-4941-ae26-7180d67e814a",
    "title": "My Title",
    "description": "My description",
    "date": 1453867674631,
    "thumbnail": {
      "url": "https://www.atlassian.com/docroot/wac/resources/wac/img/social-icons/atlassian_logo.jpg",
      "url@2x": "https://www.atlassian.com/docroot/wac/resources/wac/img/social-icons/atlassian_logo.jpg",
      "width": 400,
      "height": 200
    },
    "attributes": [
      {
        "label": "swapv3",
        "value": {
          "label": "test",
          "url": "https://answers.atlassian.com"
        }
      },
      {
        "label": "console",
        "value": {
          "label": "link2",
          "url": "https://answers.atlassian.com"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

 

I can see my xmpp client receiving the following stanza after sending the above:

<message from="a_jabber_channel_id" type="groupchat" to="other_jabber_channel_id">
  <body>my message</body>
  <x xmlns="http://hipchat.com/protocol/muc#room">
    <type>system</type>
    <notify>0</notify>
    <color>purple</color>
    <message_format>text</message_format>
    <card>
      <raw>{"style": "application", "description": "My description", "format": "compact", "url": "https://www.atlassian.com", "title": "My Title", "id": "c253adc6-11fa-4941-ae26-7180d67e814a", "date": 1453867674631, "attributes": [{"value": {"url": "https://answers.atlassian.com", "label": "test"}, "label": "swapv3"}, {"value": {"url": "https://answers.atlassian.com", "label": "link2"}, "label": "console"}], "validation": {"safehtmls": ["activity.html"], "safeurls": ["url", "images.image", "images.image-small", "images.image-big", "icon.url", "icon.url@2x", "icon", "thumbnail.url@2x", "thumbnail.url"]}, "thumbnail": {"url": "https://www.atlassian.com/docroot/wac/resources/wac/img/social-icons/atlassian_logo.jpg", "width": 400, "url@2x": "https://www.atlassian.com/docroot/wac/resources/wac/img/social-icons/atlassian_logo.jpg", "height": 200}}</raw>
    </card>
    <notification_sender type="user" id="jabber_id" />
  </x>
</message>

The question is.. how can I construct a valid xmpp stanza to mimic the rest api?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, generating card-style messages is only possible through the API interface. The XMPP interface is limited to text/html formats. In order to generate a card message, clients can either call the API directly, or perform some kind of interaction with an addon, which then sends the card message on behalf of the client.
