Does the URL needs to be HTTPS for a messenger webview?

I tried putting a HTTP URL in a Messenger Webview and the bot is crashing.

Solution

  • Yes, per Facebook Messenger's documentation, Webviews have to be HTTPS and they have to be whitelist in the Page Settings. For more details, take a look at Facebook Messenger's documentation on Whitelisting URLs.
