I can't find any strict information about two requests with are made by Nexmo to "answer" end "event" services. I'm confused.
When I make a call to my virtual number first is my "answer" URL is called. Question is how JSON body of that request looks like? Can you provide me some example of that request to "answer" URL?
Then after welcome speach user make a choise and "event" service is called. As I understand JSON body for that POST request looks like that:
{
"dtmf": "2",
"timed_out": false,
"uuid": "cwa3126675f721esueedc762c9ft94b7",
"conversation_uuid": "CON-w4e9ae1-28ka-1234-ic63-65d022433343",
"timestamp": "2018-01-27T17:59:39.963Z"
}
Am I right?
Best regards,
Radek
The webhook to your answer event contains 4 values:
to: The endpoint being called.
from: The endpoint you are calling from.
conversation_uuid: The unique ID for this Conversation.
uuid: The unique ID for this Call.
By default this request is a GET and those will be query params, you can change the method to POST if you need it in that format and you will get JSON like this:
{
"from": "447700900001",
"to": "447700900002",
"uuid": "CON-9faebf2c-6609-40e2-adaa-95444b6ca352",
"conversation_uuid": "CON-9faebf2c-6609-40e2-adaa-95444b6ca352"
}
The 'Call Progress Events' reference is here, generally there are 2/3 different categories of events:
Call progess which is things like when the call is started answered & completed and then 2 other events which are in response to an input action or a record action.

I must apologize it's currently not as easy as it should be to find this in our docs, but we've just started a rewrite of these pages and hopefully it will be much clearer soon.

how're you feeling today ?
Well I'm here because I've created a trading bot in NodeJs/Express which is receiving alerts from TradingView and then sending trades to Binance. Everything's working fine when I am sending requests with Postman but when I have requests from TradingView the request.body is always empty. Whatever I put in the alert message doesn't appear in the request.
I changed from bodyParser to express.json because I saw bodyParser was depreciated, I also changed the message several times in TradingView without any result. Just one time I tried with a test message : { "message": "test" } and I received it, but that's the only message I was able to get in my req.body
This is the message I'm trying to send :
{
"passphrase": "IJKYJS47",
"exchange": "0BINANCE_TEST",
"ticker": {{ticker}},
"strategy": "TEST_STRATEGY",
"side": "sell",
"order_price": {{close}},
"leverage": "3",
"req_type": "exit",
"order_size": "50",
"stop_loss": "1",
“tp_size”: “0.2”
}
I tried to reduce the message and not to send the variables (ticker and close) but that doesn't change anything to my issue.
Thank you for your help,
Have a great day !
I'm stuck in trying to figure this out and I hope someone out there can help me out. I am using the Dialogflow console to create a bot that requests a user to report "something" by providing his/her location and describing the incident. The bot is integrated with Facebook Messenger. One of my intents has a follow up intent which also has a follow up intent like:
intent 1
|
intent 2
| intent 3
Intent 1 requests for the user's location, intent 2 retrieves the user's location and asks the user to describe the location. Intent 3 SHOULD have all the data in context as it's fulfilled by the a webhook. All the data SHOULD be posted to my server. The problem is that I have failed to get the location data (maybe lat and long) I notice that the data comes back in the following format after the fired event FACEBOOK_LOCATION:
{
"originalDetectIntentRequest": {
"source": "facebook",
"payload": {
"postback": {
"data": {
"lat": 14.556761479425,
"long": 121.05444780425
},
"payload": "FACEBOOK_LOCATION"
},
"sender": {
"id": "1588949991188331"
}
}
}
My question is how to I carry that payload data into my Dialogflow Intent Parameters so that they are carried in context until my webhook is fired? I hope i've explained it well. Thanks for the help guys.
You can use the output contexts to save the parameters.
{
"fulfillmentText":"This is a text response",
"fulfillmentMessages":[ ],
"source":"example.com",
"payload":{
"google":{ },
"facebook":{ },
"slack":{ }
},
"outputContexts":[
{
"name":"context name",
"lifespanCount":5,
"parameters":{
"param":"param value"
}
}
],
"followupEventInput":{ }
}
Once you save the parameters, in the subsequent requests, you can access the parameters by accessing saved context. The lifespanCount will decide how many subsequent calls this context is valid. So in the above, eg. parameters saved in intent 1 will be available till intent 5 (if you have 2 more follow up intents)
You can follow more details here.
I personally like to use the client library to develop webhooks as they are easy to use, featureful and reduces JSON manipulation errors. If you like to use NodeJs based client, you can follow this link.
To expand on Abhinav's answer (and point out what caught me up on this issue). You need to make sure that the entities you extracted have the lifespan to make it to your webhook fulfillment call.
You can adjust the count by editing the number and saving.
The lifespanCount will decide how many subsequent calls this context is valid. - Abhinav
If your parameters are not showing up in your output context they probably don't have the appropriate lifespan.
I have an intent named "intent.address" with the action name "address_action" and the training phrase "My address". When this intent is triggered, response comes from my webhook saying "Alright! your address is USER_ADDRESS".
Used app.ask() here
What I want is, when this response comes from the webhook then another intent named "intent.conversation" (event name "actions_intent_CONFIRMATION")(here also webhook enabled) gets triggered, which will ask for user confirmation to continue or not?
For example :
Alright your address is USER_ADDRESS
then next
Do you want ask address/directions again?
Intents do not reflect what your webhook says, it reflects what the user says. Intents are what the user intends to do - what they want.
So no, you can't just trigger another Intent this way. There are a few ways to do what you're asking, however.
Using the Confirmation helper with the actions-on-google v1 node.js library
If you really want to use the Confirmation helper, you need to send back JSON, since the node.js v1 library doesn't support sending this helper directly. Your response will need to look something like:
{
"data": {
"google": {
"expectUserResponse": true,
"systemIntent": {
"intent": "actions.intent.CONFIRMATION",
"data": {
"#type": "type.googleapis.com/google.actions.v2.ConfirmationValueSpec",
"dialogSpec": {
"requestConfirmationText": "Please confirm your order."
}
}
}
}
}
}
If you're not already doing JSON in your responses, then you probably don't want to go this route.
Using the Confirmation helper with the actions-on-google v2 node.js library
If you've already switched to v2 of this library, then you have the ability to send a Confirmation with something like this
app.intent('ask_for_confirmation_detail', (conv) => {
conv.ask("Here is some information.");
conv.ask(new Confirmation('Can you confirm?'));
});
Or you can just use the Dialogflow way of doing this
In this scenario - you don't use the Confirmation helper at all, since it is pretty messy.
Instead, you include your question as part of the response, and you add two Followup Intents - one to handle what to do if they say "yes", and one if they say "no".
I want to clear all pending_update_count in my bot!
The output of below command :
https://api.telegram.org/botxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/getWebhookInfo
Obviously I replaced the real API token with xxx
is this :
{
"ok":true,"result":
{
"url":"",
"has_custom_certificate":false,
"pending_update_count":5154
}
}
As you can see, I have 5154 unread updates til now!! ( I'm pretty sure this pending updates are errors! Because no one uses this Bot! It's just a test Bot)
By the way, this pending_update_count number are increasing so fast!
Now that I'm writing this post the number increased 51 and reached to 5205 !
I just want to clear this pending updates.
I'm pretty sure this Bot have been stuck in an infinite loop!
Is there any way to get rid of it?
P.S:
I also cleared the webhook url. But nothing changed!
UPDATE:
The output of getWebhookInfo is this :
{
"ok":true,
"result":{
"url":"https://somewhere.com/telegram/webhook",
"has_custom_certificate":false,
"pending_update_count":23,
"last_error_date":1482910173,
"last_error_message":"Wrong response from the webhook: 500 Internal Server Error",
"max_connections":40
}
}
Why I get Wrong response from the webhook: 500 Internal Server Error ?
I think you have two options:
set webhook that do nothing, just say 200 OK to telegram's servers. Telegram wiil send all updates to this url and the queque will be cleared.
disable webhook and after it get updates by using getUpdates method, after it, turn on webhook again
Update:
Problem with webhook on your side. You can try to emulate telegram's POST query on your URL.
It can be something like this:
{"message_id":1,"from":{"id":1,"first_name":"FirstName","last_name":"LastName","username":"username"},"chat":{"id":1,"first_name":"FirstName","last_name":"LastName","username":"username","type":"private"},"date":1460957457,"text":"test message"}
You can send this text as a POST query body with PostMan for example, and after it try to debug your backend.
For anyone looking at this in 2020 and beyond, the Telegram API now supports clearing the pending messages via a drop_pending_updates parameter in both setWebhook and deleteWebhook, as per the API documentation.
Just add return 1; at the end of your hook method.
Update:
Commonly this happens because of queries delay with the database.
I solved is like this
POST tg.api/bottoken/setWebhook to emtpy "url"
POST tg.api/bottoken/getUpdates
POST tg.api/bottoken/getUpdates with "offset" last update_id appeared before
doing this serveral times
POST tg.api/bottoken/getWebhookInfo
had a look if all away.
POST tg.api/bottoken/setWebhook with filled "url"
If you are using webhook, you can follow these steps
On your web browser, enter the following url with your right value of bot
https://api.telegram.org/bot/getWebhookInf
You will get a result like this on your screen
{"ok":true,"result":{"url":"url_value",...}}
On the displayed result, copy the entire url_value without quotes and replace it on this second url
https://api.telegram.org/bot/setWebhook?url=url_value&drop_pending_updates=True
Enter the second url with right bot and url_value in your web browser then press ENTER
Done!
i solve it by Change file access permissions file - set permissions file to 755
and second increase memory limit in php.ini file
A quick&dirty way is to get a temporary webhook here: https://webhook.site/ and
set your webhook to that (it will answer with a HTTP/200 code everytime, reseting your pending messages to zero)
I faced the same issue for my tele bot after user edited existing message. My bot receives update with editedMessage continuously, but update.hasMessage() was empty. As a result number of updates rocketly increased and my bot stack.
I solved this issue by adding handling for use case when message is missing - send 200 code:
public APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent handleRequest(APIGatewayProxyRequestEvent event, Context context) {
update = MAPPER.readValue(event.getBody(), Update.class);
if (!update.hasMessage()) {
return new APIGatewayProxyResponseEvent()
.withStatusCode(200) // -> !!!!!! return code 200
.withBody("message is missing")
.withIsBase64Encoded(false);
}
... ... ...
I use apiary for my REST service definitions and I will response a request parameter - in the case at the bottom I will resonse the {area} request parameter. Is there any syntax in the a.piary editor to do this? ({area} and $area does not work)
## StandbyService Phone API [/standby/phone/{area}]
### Phone[GET]
+ Response 200 (application/json)
[
{
"number": "00436760815",
"area": "{area}"
}
]
I am sorry to disappoint you, but it's currently not possible. Nevertheless, it's interesting idea, so we would be happy if you could share it on https://github.com/apiaryio/api-blueprint/issues with some details about your use case.
