Facebook Messenger API: Trouble setting up a webhook

Question

I am trying to set up a web hook for the new Facebook Messenger bot platform on my PHP webserver and am receiving this error:

The URL couldn\'t be val

Answer 1

@shane

webhook: function(req, res) {

   if (req.query['hub.verify_token'] === 'tokentoken') {
      res.send(req.query['hub.challenge']);
   } else {
      res.send('Error, wrong validation token');    
   }
}

Note sure what exactly you're doing. but this is what I did and it's working.

I've tested using ngrok server as I don't have a domain name and the callback URL is https://werwrwetwtw.ngrok.io/webhook

Hope this helps!
