[Messenger] Messenger connector is not compliant with last Facebook API #1520

Closed ebsmarttribune closed 2 months ago

ebsmarttribune commented 1 year ago

Current version of the messenger connector is not compliant with latest Facebook API (v17.0). When creating a new application on facebook developer console , you can't choose an older version of the API and are restricted to the latest version . Messenger connector is not working with api version above v14.0

Currently the Tock connector for Messenger is built for the Facebook API version 5.0 (end 2019): see https://github.com/theopenconversationkit/tock/blob/master/bot/connector-messenger/src/main/kotlin/MessengerClient.kt#L62

The FB API is regularly updated and, when a version gets deprecated then expires, clients are automatically switched to the next API version. This way, chatbots built with the connector for 5.0 actually consume the 14.0 in production without any known problem.

The 14.0 API will expire next september the 17th according to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/changelog/versions. This means, we have to upgrade the connector to version 15.0 or above (not compatible anymore) before the 09/17/24.
