Interaction with the application

If the script is difficult or inconvenient to implement in correspondence, connect to the bot mini-application . For example, in a mini-app, you can arrange a section of bot settings or organize the filling of an application instead of messaging.

Features of work

• •
  For data exchange, the mini-application must be established in the community .
• •
  The bot must be configured to receive events via Callback API or Long Poll API .
• •
  The bot cannot send data to the mini-application directly. If the mini-application needs to receive data from the bot, use its own API.

Transferring data from mini-application to bot

Data from the mini-application can be passed via an event VKWebAppSendPayload The VK Bridge Library.

After calling the method, the bot will receive an event message_new . Data from the mini-application will come as a JSON string in the field payload .

Запуск мини‑приложения из бота

In order for the user to immediately get into the desired section when launching the mini-application, pass the parameter hash .
