I’m a beginner in using Web Api Component, I want to create an app that can integrate facebook messages; specifically send and receive facebook messages through that app and I found that Web Api Component is a way to do it and after researching I’m still a bit confuse on how to use it specifically to send and receive message. I also found that to send a message you’ll need this request URL [https://graph.facebook.com/me/messages?access\_token=](https://graph.facebook.com/me/messages?access_token=)\ but also you need to attach the person’s App ID and message ID and how can I do it? please help me ---

I’m trying to build an app that can receive and send facebook messages, I’ve been trying to do this for a week now but I still get a bit confuse on how to use API specifically to read a facebook message. Is there a way to do this? If not is there another way to send and receive facebook messages through your app? ---
