Questions
- Can HumDay updates a message. there's a difference between patch in Google Chat?
- Yes. This operation is published in Google Chat's own API description, so HumDay can use it without a hand-built connector — once you have approved it for your automation.
- Will this change my Google Chat data?
- Yes — this is a PUT operation, so it changes something in Google Chat. HumDay holds anything that writes behind an approval you grant explicitly, and the contract you approve says what it may touch.
- Do I need to write code?
- No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a proof run before anything touches your Google Chat account.
