Nesta página, explicamos as diferenças entre mensagens de texto e de card.
Quando os apps de chat enviam mensagens de texto para transmitir informações básicas, elas aparecem em linha, assim como as pessoas escrevem mensagens no Google Chat. Para criar mensagens que contenham mais do que texto ou que permitam a interação dos usuários, os apps de chat podem usar cards.
Os apps de chat também podem anexar uma mensagem de texto com um card. Para
pedir aos usuários que concluam processos de várias etapas, como preencher um formulário,
os apps do Chat também podem criar cards que abrem em uma nova janela como
caixas de diálogo.
Anatomia de uma mensagem de texto
Na API Google Chat, as mensagens são representadas como objetos JSON. Em uma mensagem, uma mensagem de texto é representada como um objeto text.
No exemplo a seguir, um app do Chat cria uma mensagem de texto em um espaço
para uma equipe de desenvolvedores de software informando que um congelamento de código está chegando:
{"text":"Attention <users/all>: Code freeze starts at `11:59 am` Pacific Standard Time! If you need a little more time, type `/moreTime` and I'll push the code freeze back one hour."}
O JSON retorna a seguinte mensagem:
Anatomia de uma mensagem de card
Na API Google Chat, as mensagens são representadas como objetos JSON. Em uma mensagem, um card é representado como uma matriz cardsV2 e consiste no seguinte:

To create messages that contain more than text, or to create\nmessages that users can interact with, Chat apps can use\n[cards](/workspace/chat/create-messages#create).\nChat apps can also append a text message with a card. To\nprompt users to finish multi-step processes such as completing a form,\nChat apps can also create cards that open in a new window as\n[dialogs](/workspace/chat/dialogs).\n\nAnatomy of a text message\n-------------------------\n\nIn the Google Chat API, messages are represented as JSON objects. Within a message,\na text message is represented as a\n[`text`](/workspace/chat/api/reference/rest/v1/spaces.messages#Message.FIELDS.text)\nobject.\n\nIn the following\nexample, a Chat app creates a text message in a space\nfor a team of software developers that a code freeze is approaching: \n\n {\n \"text\": \"Attention \u003cusers/all\u003e: Code freeze starts at `11:59 am` Pacific Standard Time!
