Kakao Talk: REST API

This document describes how to integrate Kakao Talk Messaging APIs into your service with a REST API.

You can test the features described in this document in [Tools] > [REST API Test].

Before you begin

Choose an API to use

According to your service's purpose and requirements, you need to decide which API to use first by considering their characteristics and difference.

1. Select a type of Messaging API

There are two types of messaging APIs: Kakao Talk Sharing API and Kakao Talk Messaging API. You need to understand the differences between the two messaging APIs completely by referring to Concepts, and decide which API to use to implement the function to send a message.

REST API: Not supported for Kakao Talk Sharing

You cannot use the Kakao Talk Sharing APIs with a REST API. To apply the Kakao Talk Sharing on a web page, use the JavaScript SDK.

2. Select a message type and configuration method

Decide which message template to use by referring to Message template > Types.

You can configure a message according to the default template in JSON format or create a custom template in person for your service. Refer to How to use for more details.

3. Select a target

Note that the Kakao Talk Messaging APIs are categorized according to the message targets:

  • Send to me (MyChatroom): Provides a feature to send a message to the currently logged-in user through Kakao Talk that is linked to the user's Kakao Account. This API is only allowed to send a message to the currently logged-in user, not to the user's friends.
  • Send to friends: Provides a feature to send a message to user's friends through Kakao Talk that is linked to the Kakao Account of the currently logged-in user. You need to implement a process to get information about the message recipients through the Friends picker or the Retrieving a list of Kakao Talk friends API. Users can send a message to up to 5 friends at a time. The Kakao Talk Messaging API provides daily and monthly quotas. Refer to the quota.
Note

To send a Kakao Talk message to friends, 1. Get permission. Before permission is granted to your app, you can only retrieve the list of the team members. 2. Enable the 'Send message in KakaoTalk' scope in [My Application] > [Kakao Login] > [Consent items]. A user must also consent to the scope. To see more about the conditions for providing friend information, refer to Usage policy.

APIs by conditions

According to the desired message type, the required components of the message and the API to call are different. Refer to Message template components and samples.

Message type Configuration method Target API to call
Feed, List, Location, Commerce, Text, Calendar Default template Me (MyChatroom) /v2/api/talk/memo/default/send
Feed, List, Location, Commerce, Text, Calendar Default template Friends /v1/api/talk/friends/message/default/send
Feed, List, Commerce Custom template Me (MyChatroom) /v2/api/talk/memo/send
Feed, List, Commerce Custom template Friends /v1/api/talk/friends/message/send
Scrape Default template Me (MyChatroom) /v2/api/talk/memo/scrap/send
Scrape Default template Friends /v1/api/talk/friends/message/scrap/send
Scrape Custom template Me (MyChatroom) /v2/api/talk/memo/scrap/send
Scrape Custom template Friends /v1/api/talk/friends/message/scrap/send

Send message with default template

This API enables you to configure a message in JSON format according to the default template type to use.

Add the issued access token to the request header, and send a POST request. According to the template type to use, you must pass template_object configured in JSON format.

To send a message to friends, obtain the receiving users' uuids through the Friends picker or the Retrieving list of friends API, and then pass the uuids as the receiver_uuids parameter. You can send a message to up to five friends at once.

If the message is successfully sent to all friends, successful_receiver_uuids including an array of uuids of the receiving users is returned. If the message is sent to some friends only, failure_info including the failure cause and an array of the users failed to deliver the message to is returned with successful_receiver_uuids.

Send message with custom template

Unlike the Sending message with default template, you can customize a template in [Tools] > [Message Template Builder] to send a message.

Add the issued access token to the request header, and send a POST request. Also, you must set template_id to the template ID of the custom template registered in [Message Template Builder]. If you use user arguments for some components when you configure a custom message to input variable information, you must also pass key and value pairs as the value of template_args. Otherwise, the defined argument is displayed to users as raw data, such as ${key}.

To send a message to friends, obtain the receiving users' uuids through the Friends picker or the Retrieving list of friends API, and then pass the uuids as the receiver_uuids parameter. You can send a message to up to five friends at once.

If the message is successfully sent to all friends, successful_receiver_uuids including an array of uuids of the receiving users is returned. If the message is sent to some friends only, failure_info including the failure cause and an array of the users failed to deliver the message to is returned with successful_receiver_uuids.
