My pack of nerds will be using Zoom and Arkenforge to run our D&D games because we don’t want to die. Does the API provide hooks that could be triggered by someone typing β€˜/roll d20’ in the chat and I could return a die roll value? ---

Hey @loydb, Sounds like a [Chatbot App](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/getting-started/app-types/create-chatbot-app) will be perfect for your D&D! Checkout the [slash command docs](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/chatbots/slash-commands-and-ui-elements). Thanks, Tommy ---

Oh heck yeah we support that! Use the docs Tommy mentioned to learn about the properties and features of chatbots and our API you can use! I ran a D&D game last Friday night, not many showed…I would \<3 to join yours if you will have me? πŸ˜ƒ ---

This is above my paygrade, but my nonprofit would _love_ it if something like this existed – we run creative writing workshops, and have a few instructors who would like to play writing games that involve randomization. Any chance this (or the source it points to) would be helpful to someone? [http://roll.diceapi.com/](http://roll.diceapi.com/) ---

Hi guys, We are in the processing of developing this and HOPEFULLY will have it working properly this evening. How long will it take to have the app approved once submitted? I am playing a game of DnD tomorrow and it would be good to have this available for my players. Thanks, David ---

Hey @DoomsDave, Thanks for creating this! The app submission process operates on a first in first out basis and we have seen a huge increase of app submissions so we will approve it as quickly as we can. To make sure it is approved as quickly as possible, [please follow the submission checklist.](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/guides/app-lifecycle-management/submitting-an-app/submission-checklist) Thanks again for building on the Zoom developer platform! -Tommy ---
