The URL couldn't be validated. Response does not match challenge, expected value="1158435612", received="Error; wrong verify ..."

When I try to add webhooks in app page. This throws above error. But I have entered correct vefiy_token in both app and facebook webhook setup page. What might be the problem. VERIFY_TOKEN: 'ramro-sathi-varification-code'

Hi @prdpspkt - I had this difficulty as well. It turns out that facebook-messenger requires that the validation code env variable is named VERIFY_TOKEN. They have some code that references it, and it is not configurable. Once I changed my env variable from facebook_verify_token to VERIFY_TOKEN I was able to get the validation to pass.

That's right, @lbain! You can make it to use something else (either a different environment variable or another source of configuration altogether) by implementing a different configuration provider, but the default configuration provider looks to VERIFY_TOKEN, APP_SECRET and APP_TOKEN.

Hi, You can solve this problem checking Facebook credentials from app.js and web hook. Also, I made sure the workspace URL "url: 'https://gateway.watsonplatform.net/assistant/api'," it has to be the same as my workspace, it didn't say it in the manual

Hi, I encountered a similar issue: Here is the solution : firstly turnoff your server, type in your verify_token in the main file. Then restart the server. NOw type that verify token in the webhook. It's done. cheers
