I want to add check boxes in chat room of facebook messenger. I have been searching but could not find any helpful material! Any suggestions?
You can get check boxes via Chat Extensions.

I have a referral page with a modal where users can send a share link to their friends. I need to implement the following flow:
a user clicks on facebook messenger icon and their messenger opens up where the user can choose someone of their contacts to send a share link to.
Looks like this is a solution for me but I can't clarify some questions https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/discovery/m-me-links/
I don't have an app and a page, I just need a user to open their messenger and paste and send a text to their friends.
Is this the same flow for web, iOS, Android?
Can I preload the text I want the user to share so that it will appear in the dialog with the contact the user has chosen (in some messengers it is possible)?
FB has 2 different APIs for solving this issue: for web and for mobile. They are very similar and described here:
web https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/send-dialog/
mobile https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/messenger/web
In two words, you need to add a FB script to activate FB JS SDK and then call a method to share a link.
I have published my Facebook app (related to messaging) and it was confirmed, however, users cannot find it in Facebook's search bar and in apps category. Is there anything I am missing? I tried to search for the solution in Facebook's documentations and etc, but did not succeed.
Thank You in advance.
Messenger bots/apps don't show up in the search, but the Facebook Page you linked your app to. For Messenger bots and businesses there's the Discover section in the Messenger app itself.
I have a functioning chatbot that I've developed. Only on facebook website (i.e. not on messenger site or app), when I click on the bot to begin a conversation for the first time, I get these default options, as show in the image.
I was wondering if there's some way to remove these?
Go to
Your Page->Settings->Messaging-> Turn off 'Help people start a conversation with your Page'
I saw the following screenshot on this page.
From the look of it, it sent order details to a customer upon completion of her order to her facebook messenger. I can't find any of the facebook messenger plugins capable of doing this. Can you please help me find out how did they actually did it? I want to replicate it for my site. Thanks
Send to messenger plugin and checkbox plugin could be used to create this type of functionality.
I'd like to build a feature similar to Envolve's chat plugin on my site that would allow users to chat (no webcams) around specific topics, using Facebook Connect. Users must also be able to see present users that are not connected to them so the XMPP option is out. The live stream social plugin isn't sufficient because there doesn't seem to be tag filtering so having 5 different chats about 5 different topics for instance doesn't seem viable.
Can't you specify an xid... "If you have multiple live stream boxes on the same page, specify a unique xid for each."
