flow.push_to_chat(:content => "Hello!", :tags => ["cool", "stuff"])

Posting to Team Inbox

# create a new Flow object with target flow's api token and sender information for Team Inbox posting
flow = Flowdock::Flow.new(:api_token => "__FLOW_TOKEN__",
  :source => "myapp", :from => {:name => "John Doe", :address => "[email protected]"})

# send message to Team Inbox
flow.push_to_team_inbox(:subject => "Greetings from Flowdock API Gem!",
  :content => "<h2>It works!</h2><p>Now you can start developing your awesome application for Flowdock.</p>",
  :tags => ["cool", "stuff"], :link => "http://www.flowdock.com/")
