# META

Our solution allows you to easily integrate your bot on 3 popular messaging platforms: Messenger, WhatsApp, and Instagram, so you can be present where your end users are.

To do this, you will need to have a Meta account. Once created, you can, from this application, configure the channels you want to use.

### Create and configure the Meta application from your Meta for Developers portal[​](https://dev.docs.dydu.ai/docs/Channels/meta#create-and-configure-the-meta-application-from-your-meta-for-developers-portal) <a href="#create-and-configure-the-meta-application-from-your-meta-for-developers-portal" id="create-and-configure-the-meta-application-from-your-meta-for-developers-portal"></a>

1. Login to your portal [Meta for developers](https://developers.facebook.com/) using your Facebook credentials.
2. Click on “My apps” in the navigation bar on the right.

6. Choose a name for your app.

> As stated on the Meta for Developers portal, this is the app name that will be displayed on your My Apps page and will be associated with your App ID. You can change it later in the settings.

7. Provide the email address of the contact person for your application.

> This is the email address that Meta will use to contact you regarding your application.

8. Add a business account to your application.
9. Click **Create an app**. You may be required to enter your password again to validate the creation of your application.

Your Meta application has been created! To use it to its fullest potential, you must now configure its general settings.

10. Click on "Settings" in the left-side menu, then click "General".

11. Check the name entered for the application. This name will be displayed on your messenger bot.
12. Add a link to your privacy policy.
13. Add an icon to your application respecting the constraints given by Meta.
14. Select the “Bot messenger for companies” app category.
15. Click “Save Changes”.

You can now configure your application to be available on one of the following channels:

* [Messenger](/integration/channels/connector/meta/messenger.md)
* [Instagram](/integration/channels/connector/meta/instagram.md)
* [WhatsApp](/integration/channels/connector/meta/whatsapp.md)

To add your application to a channel, you need to add one or more products to it.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs-en.dydu.ai/integration/channels/connector/meta.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
