unable to handle button click via payload

How to handle payload?

First of all get the payload value

I prefer without foreach and switch statement

$special_command = $input['entry'][0]['messaging'][0]['postback']['payload'];

now do something like this

if(!empty($special_command)) { $bot->send(new Message($sender, 'You said ' . $special_command)); // or if($special_command === 'unique_payload_text_for_button_a') { // do the required } else if($special_command === 'unique_payload_text_for_button_b') { // do the required } else if($special_command === 'unique_payload_text_for_button_c') { // do the required } }

I guess i missed the doc and here how you have to set the payload text

$bot->send(new StructuredMessage($message['sender']['id'], StructuredMessage::TYPE_BUTTON, [ 'text' => 'Choose category', 'buttons' => [ new MessageButton(MessageButton::TYPE_POSTBACK, 'A Button','unique_payload_text_for_button_a'), new MessageButton(MessageButton::TYPE_POSTBACK, 'B button','unique_payload_text_for_button_b'), new MessageButton(MessageButton::TYPE_POSTBACK, 'unique_payload_text_for_button_c') ] ] ));

** here is how you have to handle them **

what is payload
payload is just like html id, works same, nothing special but has to be unique for every button or where ever you are using

hope this helps anyone who had this issue, i learned this in 3 days so you don't have to :)
