Use Matrix in Okou

Use the official Matrix protocol on the matrix.org homeserver to inspect rooms, profiles, memberships, synchronization data, and message history.

Once connected, supported Matrix 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.

  • Read the Matrix user ID that owns the configured access token.
  • Read the capabilities advertised by the matrix.org homeserver.
  • Read public rooms and resolve room aliases and directory visibility.
  • Read room timelines, events, relations, threads, and event context.
  • Read Matrix profile fields for a user ID.
  • Read joined rooms, room state, membership, aliases, and room hierarchy.
  • Read incremental Matrix synchronization data for the configured account.
  • Read the Matrix protocol versions supported by the matrix.org homeserver.
