# send message to Chat
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]"})

: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/")
