Webhook cURL error

ladiesman1792 opened this issue 7 years ago · 10 comments

Hi, I did everything as instructions(https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/getting-started/webhook-setup) but I keep getting this error!
What did I do wrong?

Requesting side>>>

curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST "localhost:1337/webhook" -d '{"object": "page", "entry": [{"messaging": [{"message": "TEST_MESSAGE"}]}]}'

Same issues as this post: #73

Answer 2 · 2017-12-05T03:19:48.000Z

@ladiesman1792 Can you provide a link to your webhook code, either in a repo or gist?

Answer 3 · 2017-12-05T03:46:28.000Z

@amuramoto https://gist.github.com/ladiesman1792/2b88213bab00056ed07fbdb5e545fb2b.

Answer 4 · 2017-12-05T03:47:59.000Z

Those are the files created following the manual. And there is node_modules directory created by Node.js promt with "npm install express body-parser" command.

@ladiesman1792 What are you using to send the cURL request? It appears that an unexpected character is being added.

Answer 6 · 2017-12-06T01:01:19.000Z

@amuramoto

I enter this on cmd. Just like in the manual.

curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST "localhost:1337/webhook" -d '{"object": "page", "entry": [{"messaging": [{"message": "TEST_MESSAGE"}]}]}'

@ladiesman1792 Can you try typing it out instead of copy/paste?

Answer 8 · 2017-12-14T19:13:22.000Z

Closing due to no response in 8 days.

Answer 9 · 2018-01-28T22:50:51.000Z

any chance to reopen, I"m getting the same error

Answer 10 · 2021-12-29T07:57:13.000Z

Yo!
Just delete the ' from the command line like this:
curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST "localhost:1337/webhook" -d '{"object": "page", "entry": [{"messaging": [{"message": "TEST_MESSAGE"}]}]}
