I am confused with a webhook trigger for a Telegram Bot

(Augusto Vera) #1

I had a perfectly working demo of a FB Chatbot sending a webhook to another chatbot using webhook trigger and worked like a charm, Today I took both flows to make another proof of concept, but the second chatbot just does not let me set up a plain message because it asjs for a Response Path in the Facebook Only section, I am guessing this changed recently, but ¿what should I configure in order to put this thing to work?. Before that any bot subscriber to the telegram bot received triggered messages without problem now I just cannot go past the config screen of a simple message.

Hi @Augusto_Vera

A response path (RP) has always been needed to send messages to a user and isn’t exclusive to Facebook. The RP is a unique link between the user and the bot which lets you route messages to them.

On your webhook trigger are you passing in the response path for the user?

This case works like this: there are facebook users who report manitenance urgencies, then via Webhook the FB flow triggers another flow to the maintenance team, this team will have Telegram, and everyone who is subscribed to the maintenance team bot, will receive the report and then decide who will atend it. I did a rehearsal and worked fine, but now it asks me the famous response path, and I dont remember putting this in my previous rehearsal.

@DanielBeckett I found out my error, I placed a webhook to trigger a flow instead of using the webhook broadcast. Thanks!
