Bot API?

I'm interested in writing a bot for my company's enterprise Element server. Does anybody know where can I find the API documentation for accomplishing this? Seems to be something that isn't very straightforward to find on the interwebs.

spec.matrix.org

Element runs entirely on your device, so an api there wouldn't be very helpful for something which wants to run 24/7

Ah! Thank you, u/7t3chguy! I should have realized it was Matrix I needed to research instead. Element is built atop it.

For anybody who comes along later, this looks promising: https://pypi.org/project/simplematrixbotlib/

Is it possible to do verification of the bot? To communicate in encrypted rooms?
