# Facebook Messenger

## General

Have Homey send messages to your own preferred messenger service. You can add multiple services and numbers for everyone in your family.  
You need to get a personal APIkey from [callmebot.com](http://callmebot.com) before using the API. Keep this key secret so only you can send messages to yourself!

## Prerequisite ⚙

- Creat a [Facebook Messenger apiKey](https://www.callmebot.com/blog/free-api-facebook-messenger/)
  - Start a Facebook Messenger conversation with @api.callmebot. [Or click here](https://m.me/api.callmebot)
  - Send “create apikey” to @api.callmebot (using Facebook Messenger of course)
  - The bot will answer you with your personal apikey.

- When you have the apiKey from CallMeBot, go directley into Homey
