Hi Guys,
I am having trouble getting my desired response when integrating my facebook bot with bubble. I am using a regular Bubble Get API with a parameter specifying the facebook id of the user the bot is chatting with. I want to check whether this user is already signed up with my platform and depending on the outcome (true/false) want to trigger different actions.
However, it seems I cannot access the Facebook ID of a User via the API? It is not on the first level and “Do a Search for” doesnt show neither Facebook, Google nor Stripe fields.
How is it possible to check, wether a user is already signed up with my just by a parameter holding the facebook id?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Best,
Jan
Are you using the Bubble Facebook plugin? If so, you can something like
Current user’s Facebook’s id

Yes I do! Ok, using the ID within Bubble is easy. But how do I access it via API?
Like:
https://myapp.bubbleapps.io/version-test/api/1.0/obj/user/
How do I need to format the URL to query for a parameter fbid=12345 to find the user who has a facebook ID of 12345?
Do you get what I mean?
More specifically:
This is the Workflow API where I would like to send the facebook ID and check/return whether this user exists. However, I can’t choose “Facebook” here, but only fields which are standard or which I created myself.
Is there any workaround?
A workaround is to save the ID in a field.

Alright, this is working perfectly fine! Thought I could go a cleaner way, but good enough! Thanks a lot!
