Additional information

The documentation could need some more guidance how to setup the Facebook developer side, or a link to a good guide.

• The Facebook App is in development mode
• I have not configured the Facebook App Webhooks, (cant find anything in the HA instructions if this is needed or not)
• I have not Published the Facebook App Page (cant find anything in the HA instructions if this is needed or not)

I have the same issue, can anyone help?

Hi, same here.
waiting for some advice.

Same problem here.

After reading https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/issues/26132 I understand that FB don't accepts phone numbers anymore as target. We will have to use PSID instead.

But to obtain PSID, it needs a good amount of coding from what I can see there : https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/identity/id-matching

I'm wondering how we can implement all this in HA.

I'm wondering how we can implement all this in HA.

Other components setup webhooks, so I don't see why this couldn't be done. I think the trickier part is how to represent that information in Home Assistant when a message comes in
