conversation-messages-inbound-example

This application allows you to receive inbound messages from Facebook users to your Facebook Page and persists the events in a conversation named my_conversation.

Capabilities

Adds Messages capability to your nexmo application and configures the Inbound URL and Status URL webhooks (messagesInbound and messagesStatus in index.js).

Linking a Facebook page

Currently the conversation-api-function cli tool doesn't support linking a facebook page to your nexmo applications, so this step has to be done manually via the vonage dashboard.

To link a FB page to your application:

• Link your FB page to your vonage account https://dashboard.nexmo.com/messages/social-channels/facebook-connect
• Go to your application (Application information can be found by running conversation-api-function config)
• Click Link social channels tab and link your FB page

To run the server

Pre-requisite: node version >= 14 nvm use 14

npm start | bunyan

Endpoints

The application exposes two endpoints:

• GET /conversations: Lists all the conversations associated with your nexmo application
• GET /conversationEvents: Lists all the events of the conversation name my_conversation
