Hi.
I implement a street Dropdown width data from Api good in Emulator. But in Messenger Facebbok not Show the dropdown?
Some where implement Dropdown in Facebook Messenger?
Tanks.
Jose.
Hi @joseo,
Unfortunatly, this is normal. I assume you have created your “street” dropdown using custom content types?
If this is the case, you’ll need a different JSON payload for the webchat (the emulator) and for facebook messenger.
For an example, checkout our dropdown implentation here. Look for renderElement function which calls a different renderer for each channel.
Hope this information helps,
François
How can I have different JSON payloads to consume in an NodeJS app? I made a question that need this clarification.
Could you help me on this? @frank_levasseur ???
Hi @LuizCesarLeite,
I’m not sure I really understand your question, but just look at the example:
function renderElement(data, channel) {
if (channel === 'web' || channel === 'api') {
return render(data)
} else if (channel === 'slack') {
return renderSlack(data)
} else if (channel === 'smooch') {
return [data]
} else if (channel === 'teams') {
return [{ ...data, type: 'dropdown_choice' }]
}
return []
}
renderSlack and render both return different JSON payloads.
If this doesn’t answer your question, can you try to ask it differently?

I want to use the values that I setted in Delay action outside Botpress, let’s say, a NodeJS app.
I can retrieve the JSON with the Dropdown info in my app, but how can I have the action’s values that is showed in the raw JSON at emulator?
Thanks in advance, @frank_levasseur !
