JIRA Updates to slack DMs - jira

We use Slack and JIRA, and the Slack connector to push JIRA updates into a #jira-updates Slack channel.
I'm wondering if anyone knows if the connector (or another tool) can post updates to Slack as a direct message to the watcher list for an issue? It owuld be really good if my DM feed had updates from JIRA which were applicable to me, rather than having to trawl the whole channel looking for my name.
Any ideas?

How to call Google Assistant API from the Dialogflow webhook?

In webhooks from Dialogflow, is there a way to trigger Google Assistant APIs, get back the result and display in Dialogflow?
Thanks.
Short answer: no. The Assistant API currently only takes voice input, and there is no way to get the user's voice in Dialogflow. In theory, you could run it through a TTS, feed that to the API, get the response back, and feed that through STT, but that seems like a pain.
What are you actually trying to do?
Google Assistant webhook will not make your bot more intelligent. You need to create right intents in your Dialogflow Agent to make it intelligent enough to do Natural Language Processing and trigger the right intent. Whatever webhook you create (Google Assistant or other) they will just work as you have coded.
In short, Dialogflow is doing the NLP stuff and making your bot intelligent and webhook will do tasks based on the identified intent or action.
To integrate GA with Dialogflow, best way would be to use NodeJS client for Action-on-Google and add it to your webhook project like require('actions-on-google').DialogflowApp
Follow the documentation and understand how to create a GA webhook for Dialogflow.
It would be better if you can explain exactly what you want to do. That way, the community members can answer your question in a better way.

Can I create alerts on document folders using MS Graph API?

When you view document folders in a SharePoint online site you have the ability to configure email alerts on folders based on when items are added or deleted. Can I do the same thing via the Microsoft Graph API? If this is not possible now, is there any plan to add this to the API in the near future? The only workaround I have been able to come up with involves using the Delta API to poll for changes periodically, but that requires a lot of processing as the Delta API is not very granular.
You do this using webhooks and registering a subscription against the resource you want to monitor.
See Using webhooks to receive service-to-service notifications for details and examples of how this works.

How to customize context menu of Slack windows client?

Im trying to build custom context menu for slack. But, the Slack API page doesn't contain any information about customizing user interface.
Currently Slack displays only 2 options:
Is it a known restriction? If not can anyone please let me know where to start to build the custom context menu for Slack windows client?
No, that is not something you can do to my knowledge. Slack is made to run on many different platform incl. mobiles, so I would not expect them to ever provide this feature.

Utilizing Twilio with Filemaker 15

Looking for the best way to deploy Twilio as a SMS send tool within a Filemaker script to notify of order status updates. Nothing too complex. Has anyone successfully achieved this
Twilio is API, try using it with "Insert from URL" and FileMaker Post, although the best way would be using one of the plugins, like free BaseElements, which has curl, proper get and post functions.

Does Slack provide API access to Slack's avatars?

Where do the Slack default avatars come from? Is it their own service or a 3rd party one?
In either case, is there a possibility for others to use the avatar creation service / system e.g. via the slack API?
I asked Slack directly, and they don't currently offer this in their API:
We don't have an API method or service for it, so there isn't a way to do this, sorry!
They've heard the suggestion, though.
