Abstract
A system for integrating messaging network and external service providers includes: a messaging server connected to a network; and an integration server connected to the messaging server via the network. The messaging server routes messages between client devices, and autonomously generate responses to messages received from the client devices, by selecting content based on the messages and sending the content to the client devices. The content identifies a web page hosted at the integration server. The integration server receives a request for the web page from a client device, and sends the web page, including at least one selectable element, to the client device. Responsive to receiving a selection of the selectable element from the client device, the integration server transmits a message command to the client device, for causing the client device to transmit a message to the messaging server containing a web page identifier.
