Quick Replies node

Quick Replies node provide a way to present buttons to the user in response to a message in Facebook Messenger.

Quick Replies appear prominently above the composer, with the keyboard less prominent. When a quick reply is tapped, the message is sent in the conversation with developer-defined metadata in the callback.

After the user taps one, they are dismissed, which prevents the scenario where users could tap on buttons attached to old messages in a conversation.

Only three types of buttons can be specified here:

• quick-reply: very similar to postback (see Buttons node for more details), has a label and value (which is the text sent back to the chat when the button is pressed). The button can also have an icon with specified by the url field
• email: allows the user to share his email
• phone: allows the user to share his phone number

The text message can be passed through the payload by the upstream node:

return { 
  ...msg,
  message: 'Select one',
  buttons: [
    { type: 'quick-reply', label: 'Test 1', value: 'test1' },
    { type: 'quick-reply', label: 'Test 2', value: 'test2' }
  ]
 ;
