overlane bot map-user

Link a person on the bot's platform to a team member

Updated View as MarkdownOpen in ChatGPTOpen in Claude

Links the bot platform’s ID for a person to a team member, so the project assistant answers that person with the member’s role. The member must already be on the team. Linking again replaces the earlier link.

Usage

overlane bot map-user bot-id --external-user ID --user USER_ID [--service URL] [--team TENANT_ID] [--dry-run]

Arguments

Argument Required Description
bot-id yes The bot ID from overlane bot list

Flags

Flag Type Required Default Description
--external-user string yes The person’s ID on the bot platform
--user string yes The team member’s user ID from overlane team members
--service string no The service address (default: OVERLANE_SERVICE_URL, then the project’s binding, then the hosted service)
--team string no The team (tenant) to act on (default: the one your token belongs to)
--dry-run boolean no Print the requests and file changes this command would make, then stop. Needs no credentials.

Examples

overlane bot map-user bot_ab12cd34ef --external-user U024BE7LH --user usr_ab12

  • Effect: write (changes local or hosted state).
  • Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
  • Supports --dry-run: yes. Accepts --force: no.
  • Machine-readable description: overlane schema bot map-user.
