If people says "Info" my BOT will reply "We are a software firm. We develop web application.”

Thanks for your kind review.

  • Hi Xeroneit, I think your screencast video sample is outdated already. Can you create a new one so we can follow? Because I already create video as your screencast video but Facebook still not approve my apps.

    Hope to get reply from your team as soon as possible. Thank you.

  • Dear author,

    Thank you for your effort.

    However I faced rejection on app submission:

    Developer Policy 1.9 - Build a Quality Product
    We determined that your app's use case for the requested permission or feature is invalid or is not needed to support its core functionality.
    Your app should only request for permissions and features that help enhance the experience for your business and the end user. Please resolve this issue by removing or revising your app content for compliance before submitting for review.
    If you believe your use case is valid, please submit a revised screencast or notes that explain the following items:
    1. Which functionality of your app requires the permission or feature.
    2. How the permission or feature will enhance your app's functionality and how the integration functions.
    3. How the permission or feature will enhance end user's experience.
    Visit our App Review Rejection Guide to learn more.

    I followed exactly the demo screencast and record with my own installation (own URL, own logo, own credential.....etc)
    What can I do?

  • Your submission instructions for pages_read_user_content, pages_manage_engagement is no longer valid. My submission is being rejected over and over again. Please UPDATE your instructions. TIA.

  • You missing PLATFORMS and Webhooks videos in your video. Which platforms t oadd and how to apply settings?

  • Where can I download verification footage?

    Is there any way that I can Import my shops too in xerochat?

  • I think something is missing in your discription videos regarding app submission. Shall we provide admin credentials for app review or shall we create a test user and provide the test user details. if yes what kind of permissions for test users shall we provide?
    Otherwise , i created a user but it gives the error
    " App not set up: This app is still in development mode, and you don't have access to it. Switch to a registered test user or ask an app admin for permissions."
    Kindly guide

      Please check our Video instruction how to submit, that give all the details for submission.

      You will need to create user account in XeroChat with app access & give that account credential to the reviewer. Reviewer will be able to import their own account. No problem.

  • Hello,
    I am interested in xerchat but i tried to submit the app as your video instruction and they rejected both times.
    I just followed your instruction but did not get approval.

      Have you purchased XeroChat ? Without purchasing & installing the full system , you can't submit APP. It will be simply rejected. You need to follow all the instruction as given here , and also need to provide them demo login credential of your system & screencast video from your own system.

      Sorry for late response. Make sure you have enabled four messenger event in webhook settings for that page for first time. Then it should work for admin before getting approval & APP goes live.

      If you still face problem, please feel free to contact our support desk by creating ticket & give access to your system to check the matter for you.
