I have successfully created a facebook messenger bot using Graph API by following these two tutorials: https://www.pragnakalp.com/create-facebook-chatbot-using-python-tutorial-with-examples/
The bot works great when I open the page messenger and have a talk with it. But it does not cater anyone other than me. I have also made the application live. I am new to this that's why I cannot really figure out the problem here. What steps am I missing? Why can't it reply to anyone else? This is my code
PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN='EAAO------'
API = "https://graph.facebook.com/v17.0/me/messages?access_token="+PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN
@app.route("/", methods=['GET'])
def fbverify():
if request.args.get("hub.mode") == "subscribe" and request.args.get("hub.challenge"):
if not request.args.get("hub.verify_token")==PAGE_ACCESS_TOKEN:
return "Verification token missmatch", 403
return request.args['hub.challenge'], 200
return "Hello", 200
@app.route("/", methods=['POST'])
def fbwebhook():
data = request.get_json()
print(data)
# Read messages from facebook messenger.
message = data['entry'][0]['messaging'][0]['message']
print(message)
sender_id = data['entry'][0]['messaging'][0]['sender']['id']
print(sender_id)
if message['text']:
# Response from chatbot_handler
response_text = chatbot_handler(message['text'], chat_history)
request_body = {
"recipient": {
"id": sender_id
},
"message": {
"text": response_text # Use the response from chatbot_handler
}
}
response = requests.post(API, json=request_body).json()
return response
Any kind of help will be highly appreciated. Thanks!
