[windgo1019]

I usw win10 and download drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe
When I get a secret and token
I use this command to start webhook
drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe --secret secret_key --token token_key webhook
then i use this command to send message

drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe --secret secret_key --token token_key --to windgo --message "test"
or
drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe --secret secret_key --token token_key --to @nle4159v --message "test"

then i got a error mesage
"2016/12/19 11:21:57 linebot: APIError 400 The property, 'to', in the request body is invalid (line: -, column: -)"

could you give me a suggest?

Your user ID is the wrong format. Please follows the following steps:

1. Setup webhook service.

drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe --secret secret_key --token token_key webhook

2. Add bot account to your friend list.

3. Send message to bot account

You can see the following screen shots to show your personal ID

Please Note User ID format.

4. Send message:

drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe --secret secret_key --token token_key --to U772346xxxxxxxx --message "test"

Thank for your reply!

I find the different point
I run the drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe then the program just stop in
"Line Webhook Server Listin on 8088 port"

so I cant get the User ID to go next step
I try it in 2 PC ,drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-amd64.exe and drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-386.exe ,but i get the same result

below is my run command:
drone-line-v1.4.0-windows-amd64.exe --secret e27bfd26c58c279b24eebea7f23b69b3 --token HkCs4ouXy5x1FPxU5DrbMpLPH5Uz9rV6Ek9D8aHDLktos3SKr//V4pgi+H7ijV1MfBqLdIbhsJBwbQgtogr4aZRWyjv8tBjLi8SRTELG+2NmMu4ZVGOZLOE/3LRXUtolkZSE4kfRojR0XscLybJckAdB04t89/1O/w1cDnyilFU= webhook

You are missing some steps. Please get User ID first.

After running webhook service. You need to run ngrok command as following:

$ ngrok http 8088

Then you will get ngrok URL and put it into Webhook URL field on Line developer admin console.
