clarification on where to get app developer keys about bootbot

[johannpinson]

Hi @awitherow

This is some help : https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/guides/quick-start

The verify_token is created by yourself (a string with at least around 50 characters) and asked on facebook in the step 2, when you setup the webhook

For the access_token, facebook give it to you in the step 3, when you generate the token for the page who will receive the bot.

Hope it can help you 😃

developer.facebook > on the app page > Settings > Basic > show [enter password when challenged]

Thanks @johannpinson ! It took some digging around to figure it out. Would be great to have what you just explained as a PR in the setup part.

Thanks for the suggestion! I've added a note to the getting started guide in the README file that links to Facebook's guide and to this issue.

Awesome @Charca thanks man.

what is the appSecret ?

is this the add id?

in other facebook apps I've only used and seen mention of the accessToken & verifyToken.
