Use Discourse in Okou
Use the Discourse community API to list forum content, categories, tags, groups, private-message topic lists, user activity and administrative metadata, or publish, edit and remove topics and posts on the connected Discourse site.
Once connected, supported Discourse actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.
What you can do with Discourse
- Publish a topic, reply, or private message; may notify members and consume email/storage allowances.
