[noob issue] Bridge doesn't seem to work

[jakubiakdev]

I don't exactly know how does it all work, but I still tried to configure it. After running python3 fbridge.py it gives me a number of errors.

Login of mymail@mymail successful.

Listening...

Additionally when someone types something I get information for it in the terminal. Also output of matterbridge

Also I don't know if I should make an issue on matterbridge repo

Your matterbridge config needs an 'api' section. This opens the port that fbridge connects to.

Yep, that was the problem. I did an oopsie by thinking api.myapi was a placeholder.
