I have a simple message bot that was set up according to the Messenger Platform guide. It has been working fine for the last few months, with about half a dozen messages sent a day. I have not touched it at all, but suddenly, sending a message, ie calling https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/messages?access_token=...
, returns:
{"message":"(#230) Requires pages_messaging_subscriptions permission to manage the object","type":"OAuthException","code":230,"fbtrace_id":"DVs...."}
This was out of the blue. Things were working fine, I did not even log on to Facebook during this time, and I haven't even looked at my webhook callback website. But some time from Aug 17 onward, this exception was returned for every attempted message send.
Has something changed? Anyway, I could not find a subscription field by the name pages_messaging_subscriptions
in the Webhooks Page Subscription page.
What do I need to get my message bot to work again?
