In order to test out the Financial Object specification between several market data providers, FactSet will build a bot that can convert a simple input of an ID into a financial object.

Bot needs to be invited to the chat/chatroom
Bot looks for cashtags and (due to the current restrictions in cashtag input) also the command /lookup XYZ

The bot then responds with:

<messageML>Here's some info about <b>XYZ</b>:
	<entity type=”org.symphonyoss.fin.security” version="1.0"/>
		<attribute name=”id” type=”com.factset.symphony.security.id.permid” priority="0" value=”123”/>
		<attribute name=”id” type=”org.symphonyoss.fin.security.id.isin” priority="1" value=”456”/>
		<attribute name=”id” type=”org.symphonyoss.fin.security.id.sedol” priority="2" value=”789”/>
		<attribute name=”id” type=”org.symphonyoss.fin.security.id.ticker” priority="3" value=”XYZ-US”/>
		<presentationML><b>XYZ Partners Inc.</b></presentationML>
	</entity>
</messageML>

If you don’t have a renderer it should be shown as:

Here’s some info about XYZ: XYZ Partners Inc.

While a renderer should be able to replace XYZ Partners Inc. with whatever the renderer produces.
