Error installing driver "Facebook"

The cause of question may be facebook api spec that was changed.

Trying to access array offset on value of type null

• BotMan Version: 2.6.1
• PHP Version: 7.4.25
• Messaging Service(s):
• Cache Driver:
• FacebookDriver: 1.11.0

Description:

Error when calling chatbot with FacebookDriver:

local.ERROR: Trying to access array offset on value of type null {"exception":"[object] (ErrorException(code: 0): Trying to access array offset on value of type null at .......vendor/botman/driver-facebook/src/FacebookDriver.php:516)

So in FacebookDriver:
$facebookResponse->getContent() return nothing
$facebookResponse->getStatusCode() = 500

protected function throwExceptionIfResponseNotOk(Response $facebookResponse)
{
    if ($facebookResponse->getStatusCode() !== 200) {
        $responseData = json_decode($facebookResponse->getContent(), true);
        throw new FacebookException('Error sending payload: '.$responseData['error']['message']);
    }

Handover Protocol

Does botman support facebook handover protocol? I have seen this code in driver-facebook but i don't know how to use this.

/** * Pass a conversation to the page inbox. * * @param IncomingMessage $message * @param $bot * @return Response */ public function handover(IncomingMessage $message, $bot) { return $this->http->post($this->facebookProfileEndpoint.'me/pass_thread_control?access_token='.$this->config->get('token'), [], [ 'recipient' => [ 'id' => $message->getSender(), ], 'target_app_id' => self::HANDOVER_INBOX_PAGE_ID, ]); }

If this is supported how do i use this? thank you

Upcoming messaging type flag requirement

Starting today, we’ve created a “messaging_type” property which is required in all requests to the send API. This property identifies the messaging type for the message being sent. This is a more explicit way to ensure developers and businesses are complying with policies for specific messaging types and respecting people’s preferences.

See: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/send-messages#messaging_type_flag

getUser not working

Hello,

I'm trying to use getUser to eventually get the user id, but I always have this error;

[2018-07-30 06:29:37] local.ERROR: Error sending payload: Unsupported get request. Please read the Graph API documentation at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api {"exception":"[object] (BotMan\\Drivers\\Facebook\\Exceptions\\FacebookException(code: 0): Error sending payload: Unsupported get request.

I also tried using the dev-master of botman/driver-facebook, still the same result.

Anyone got an idea?

Thanks,

Framework repeatingly sending messages to Facebook Messenger

I've got the following problem: In some cases the framework does not stop sending messages to the Facebook messenger for some User. I know this problem, if there is an error in the code.

We could not find the problem during testing. I assumed the problem occurs if the user denies access to some information or tries to ignore the bot.

The Version in which the Problem was occuring was:

Laravel Framework 5.6.39
Botman Version 2.4.1

Facebook Driver
"name": "botman/driver-facebook",
"url": "https://github.com/botman/driver-facebook.git",
"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/botman/driver-facebook/zipball/8071f777388de7cde8122a340acdab01694d517b",
"homepage": "http://github.com/botman/driver-facebook",
"facebook",
"facebook messenger"
"botman/driver-facebook": "dev-master" (2.0-dev)

We have done an update to the system, the current version in test is:

Laravel Framework 5.6.39
Botman Version 2.5.0

Facebook Driver
"name": "botman/driver-facebook",
"version": "1.10.0",
"source": {
"type": "git",
"url": "https://github.com/botman/driver-facebook.git",
"reference": "a02096c5b9dafddc3353e8c5eff060fcb004985f"

If it is possible to get a hint for the cause of the problem it would be great.

Also if there is a setting to stop botman to repeatingly sending the same message over and over again this would be got to know.

Error sending payload: Unsupported get request. Object with ID 'XXX' does not exist

I am having an issue with the Facebook driver in production:

Error sending payload: Unsupported get request. Object with ID '1278886878901311' does not exist, cannot be loaded due to missing permissions, or does not support this operation. Please read the Graph API documentation at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api

This error doesn't surface in development and even in production, the bot seemed to work OK. I've had my entire team try it and everything looks ok. I am storing users first name, last name and PSID and also able to properly respond to the PSID's I've tested.

Yet my error log is full of thousands of errors like the one below.

My code is a simple conversation with $bot->getUser();

A stripped back version of my class:

class MyConversation extends BotMan\BotMan\Messages\Conversations\Conversation 
{
    public function conversation()
    {
        $question = Question::create('...')
            ->fallback("...")
            ->callbackId('...')
            ->addButtons([
                Button::create('Yes')->value('1'),
                Button::create('No thanks')->value('0')
            ]);

        $this->ask($question, function(Answer $answer) {

            $this->response = $this->getYesNoAnswer($answer);

            if ($this->response === true) {
               $this->saveResponse();
            }
        });
    }

    public function saveResponse()
    {
        $user = $this->bot->getUser();
        $id = $user->getId();
        $forename = $user->getFirstName();
        $surname = $user->getLastName();

        // Save id, forename and surname to DB.
    }
}

Essentially a simple conversation which runs a saveResponse() method which attempts to get the user via $this->bot->getUser();

Finally, the error:

How to get an attachmentId for an image

The Media Template code example for an image in the documentation is:

$bot->reply(MediaTemplate::create()
    ->element(MediaAttachmentElement::create('image')
        ->attachmentId('1543527005693234')
        ->addButton(ElementButton::create('Tell me more')
            ->type('postback')
            ->payload('Tell me more')
        )
        ->addButton(ElementButton::create('Documentation')
            ->url('https://botman.io/')
        )
    )
);

But how do I get an attachmentId for an image?

getText returns Value instead of text in Question Answer for quick replies

After "if $answer->isInteractiveMessageReply()",
the selected quick reply button's value can be accessed by $answer->getValue,
and the selected button's text should be accessed by $answer->getText. (this worked in the old version)
This is not the case with the new botman version. The $answer->getText returns the value of the button instead of the actual text.
So in a nutshell, both methods return the same value! for $answer->getValue!
@mpociot may you please look into that, thank you.

Bot not answering custom questions

Hi,

All the suddens some week ago the bot stopped to answer typed messages of customers.
Bot works fine only while using the FB menu, if i try to call the same actions typing is not working. Tinker is working fine.
I am using the latest botman and driver versions.

@mpociot I reopen this here hopefully is the right place, if you could help would be great.

Thanks!

Adding new user information(field - division) for WORKPLACE (Facebook for companies)

Line 440 in 3345db2

$fields = 'first_name,last_name,email,title,department,employee_number,primary_phone,primary_address,picture,link,locale,name,name_format,updated_time';

It would be great if this field was added into new version.

Bot facebook not respond

PHP 7.1
Botman installed with BotMan Studio
"botman/driver-facebook": "^1.3",

Hello, I'm having problems with my bot. (Facebook).
I was not able to validate though I read botman/botman#593 and changed the verifyRequest method to echo $ request->get('hub_challenge'); and I was able to validate.

However the return log
\Log::info('verification:'.$request->get('token'). 'hub_mode:'.$request->get('hub_mode').' - hub_verify_token: ' . $request->get('hub_verify_token') );

log laravel
[2017-11-15 21:17:26] local.INFO: verification:hub_mode:subscribe - hub_verify_token:
[2017-11-15 21:18:53] local.INFO: verification:hub_mode:subscribe - hub_verify_token:

it is always empty.
I do not know if this can have any relation, but my bot does not respond

verifyRequest issue

Hey @mpociot @christophrumpel

I went over with more debug to figure out my issue, i am working on a base botman version with nothing, i see that the bot is receiving and logging the messages however is not sending replies.

I have done more and more debug i believe the script stops on FacebookDriver "verifyRequest" method, the response of that method is not returned because the IF is not satisfied, all the fields in the IF are empty.

The request however is not empty, heres the raw $request variable logged from inside "verifyRequest" method, seems fine to me.

Is this due to changes on FB apis ?
Could you check this out? Would love to make this work again one day.

Thanks!

I can't attach PDF files to a reply

• BotMan Version: v2.6.1
• PHP Version: 7.4.12

Description:

this is the code:

<?php
use BotMan\BotMan\BotMan;
use BotMan\BotMan\Messages\Outgoing\OutgoingMessage;
use BotMan\BotMan\Messages\Attachments\File;

$botman = resolve('botman');

$botman->hears('Send PDF', function ($bot) {

    $attachment = new File('/pdf/example1.pdf', [
        'custom_payload' => true,
    ]);
    $message = OutgoingMessage::create('This is your PDF')
    ->withAttachment($attachment);
    $bot->reply($message);

});

It shows the message "This is your PDF" but without attachment, I tried with the full url, but doesn't work either. The pdf folder is located in the public folder. I'm using Facebook Driver.

Error when the bot subscribes to "message_echoes"

driver version: 1.0.2

If in the facebook bot developer console you subscribe the bot also to the "message_echoes", after the first message the bot will sto working since the driver does not support the echoes.

The error returned is:
Error sending payload: (#100) Tried accessing nonexisting field (first_name) on node type (Page) (500 Internal Server Error)

in order to reproduce simply subscribe the bot to "message_echoes" and than send a couple of messages, the bot will never answer the second message. Note: subscribing to a new field has a lag (few mins), keep in mind in case the bot will continue working.

Allow Attachment Reuse

Hello!

Once a month, we send a message and an image to 10,000 people. What would be nice is that Botman supports Attachment-Reuses:

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/reference/send-api#request
See section "Attachment Reuse"

Do you know if that would be possible?

verifyRequest gets everything, but response is empty (when setting up webhook)

I can't seem to get the webhook between Messenger and Botman working. I tried it on localhost with ngrok USING THE EXACT SAME SCRIPT and it works, but I need it on my webserver.

I logged the hub_verify_token, hub_mode, and hub_challenge in the verifyRequest method and it gets the right token, hub_mode and hub_challenge, but I always get the "Response does not match challenge, expected value="468366090", received="" " error.

I'm using it without BotMan Studio.

Message Added to an attachment does not go!

Consider the code below. The message "This is a video is not sent out, though the video is".
$attachment = new Video('video_url'); $message = OutgoingMessage::create('This is a Video')->withAttachment($attachment); $this->say($message);
