I'm getting a weird error while configuring welcome message for my Messenger bot. I've been using the same code (as shown below) and it has just been working fine until last night. I tried it with both cURL and Postman . Neither of them works. curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ "setting_type":"call_to_actions", "thread_state":"new_thread", "call_to_actions":[ { "message":{ "text":"Welcome to My Company!" } } ] }' "https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/<PAGE_ID>/thread_settings?access_token=<PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN>" Error message when executing the code above: {"error":{"message":"(

I'm trying to create a Messenger Web View ( https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/messenger-extension ) by using the Messenger Extensions Javascript SDK. The page opened by the Web View has the following JS code <script> (function(d, s, id){ var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;} js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.com/en_US/messenger.Extensions.js"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); }(document, 'script', 'Messenger')); window.extAsyncInit = function () { // the Messenger Extensions JS SDK is done

In Facebook's documentation they refer to wit.ai Bot Engine, but I can't find anywhere online where its explained how to connect the Story that you build in Wit with your Facebook Messenger App? Wit.ai needs an input - user input. Sentence, phrase, word - to give you back the analysed results. So first when you say "your Facebook Messenger app" - you need to make sure you are handling the messenger part by itself: have a code in your language of preference running on the server\your laptop which can receive the text which is sent to the messenger account on Facebook. When you get that working,

What is the best way to authenticate with an external API from a conversation with a bot on the facebook messenger platform? For a broad example, I would like a user of my bot to create items on their own profiles of an external website. Is there a way to get login information from the user, or connect my bot to the external website, without the user explicitly sending a message to the bot with their username and password? What I found in the documentation under User Profile API : You can personalize the conversation using the person's name or profile pic from the User Profile API. In order to

I am trying out the new Facebook Messenger Platform and have hit a bit of a problem. When a user first chats with my Bot, I want to use the sender.id to lookup the user in my DB and verify whether they're a customer or not and offer a more tailored UX. User's sign up to my service using Facebook Login, but unfortunately it appears my App's Facebook ID & my Bot's Facebook ID are different due to IDs being limited to App-scopes. Is there any way associate the 2 IDs to allow me to find a user in my DB? UPDATE (4/20/2016): We got around this by asking users on first contact via messenger to click

I have been trying to fix this error for a week now, but still cannot find the problem. The LogIn is working, but for some reason the share to Messenger Crashes. I cannot really understand what the problem is. Basically I save a text to speech to my device and then I attempt to share it. The file saves to the device (I checked), but messenger does not share. Here is my code for sharing: public void shareFile(View view) { String sayWhat = "This is what you sound like when you write to me, thanks to the app Messenger Say it! Available now at Google Play"; HashMap hashmap = new HashMap(); hashmap

I am trying to share different type of images using UIActivityViewController to facebook messenger. I am facing no problem while sharing the images (.png), but I am not able to send gif images (.gif), it is giving error "Couldn't load content". I am converting the image to data & then sending the data in array through UIActivityViewController. Here, I am firing a notification with the details & extracting the gif path & then processing it. NSDictionary *dictAsset = [notification userInfo]; NSData *imageData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:dictAsset[@"path"]]; NSArray *imageToShare = [NSArray
