Facebook Messenger
Follow these steps to install your bot on your Facebook Messenger page.
You absolutely need to be admin of a Facebook Page.
- get your intro bot surveyID on your Vizir dashboard
- go to botchimp.herokuapp.com
- login with Facebook (you need to be admin of a page)
- add a new list
- connect to your page
- click on settings
- add this: &vizir_survey=true in the URL. Here's an example of the final URL you should get: https://botchimp.herokuapp.com/#/dashboard/settings/160970277792747?s=welcome&vizir_survey=true
It unlocks the SurveyID input field on the top of your card
Paste your intro bot surveyID here
Save
Next step
It might do nothing on the front, but it should work. To test is, go to your Facebook page, add a button (bot button) and start talking to it. The bot should be live.
If not, repeat the previous steps (save / next / ...) until it works.
If it still doesn't work, contact [email protected]
Useful stuff to test your bot
If you are working on your bot, you may want to check your latest updates.
To reboot your bot, type => USER_START at any time (in capitals, or it wont work).
Facebook bots bonuses
There are 2 things you still cannot edit in Vizir:
Promoting your Facebook Messenger bot
Facebook provides you with a unique Messenger URL.
To get your Messenger URL, just replace facebook.com by m.me in your Facebook Page URL.
So if your Facebook Page URL is: https://www.facebook.com/techcrunch
Then your Messenger URL is: https://m.me/techcrunch
NEVER USE THIS URL: https://www.messenger.com/t/techcrunch (as it does not redirect to the Messenger app when opened on Facebook mobile app)
