Karma bot supports webhooks which allow you to assign karma by making outside API requests from your services.

P.S.: We enjoy using the Postman for testing such queries.

Try it within Karma bot Demo environment

Get on Karma bot Demo slack

Channels for testing

Channel names are optional. They use plain text channel names rather than channel IDs.

Desired output
