Usage

Send API

from meta.api.api import Api
from meta.api.messages.text_message import TextMessage



api = Api(page_access_token=<page_access_token>)

text_message = TextMessage(text="Hi, How are you?")
response = api.send_messages(to= <recipient_id>, messages=text_message)

Note: From Facebook regarding Receipt IDs

These ids are page-scoped. These ids differ from those returned from Meta Login apps which are app-scoped. You must use ids retrieved from a Messenger integration for this page in order to function properly.

Sending a generic template message:

Generic Template Messages allows you to add cool elements like images, text all in a single bubble.

from metapython import Api

from metapython.api.consts import ButtonType
from metapython.api.messages import ElementMessage, ElementsMessage, ButtonMessage, ButtonsMessage


api = Api(page_access_token=<page_access_token>)

# Generic Message
elements = ElementsMessage()

web_link_button = ButtonMessage(button_type=ButtonType.WEB_URL, title="Visit Diyo Website")
web_link_button.set_url(<url>)

element1 = ElementMessage(
    buttons=[web_link_button],
    image_url="https://moneymitra.com/static/image/moneymitra-logo.png",
)
elements.add_element(element1)

phone_number_button = ButtonMessage(button_type=ButtonType.PHONE_NUMBER, title="Call me")
phone_number_button.set_payload("XXXXXXXXXXX")
element2 = ElementMessage(
    buttons=[phone_number_button],
    image_url=<image_url>,
)
elements.add_element(element2)

response = api.send_messages(to= <recipient_id>, messages=elements)
