LINE Official Notifications (One-way)
LINE Official Notifications (LON) is a service that allows customers to send notification messages to users by specifying their mobile numbers, without knowing their User IDs. Even though the end user has not added the business' LINE Official Account (sender) as a friend (subscribed to the channel or opted in), business can send notification messages to customers via their LINE Official Account (sender).
LINE Official Account (Two-way)
The Messaging API enables data to be passed between the Infobip Contact Center as a Service (Conversations), the chatbot building platform (Answers), the customer engagement platform (Moments), and the LINE platform.
Requests are sent over HTTPS in JSON format.
The process works as follows:
- The customer sends a message to your LINE Official Account, which is on the LINE platform.
- The LINE platform sends a webhook event to the webhook URL of the Infobip platform.
- Depending on the webhook event, the Infobip platform responds to the customer through the LINE platform.
