I started developing a bot for kik based on the official kik documentation. When configuring, it returned an error C400 Bad Request`. I used the following entity:
{
"webhook": "http://172.22.105.160:8080/kik/message",
"features": {
"manuallySendReadReceipts": false,
"receiveReadReceipts": false,
"receiveDeliveryReceipts": false,
"receiveIsTyping": false
}
}
Surprisingly, it did not fail when I replaced the webhook with http://example.com:8080/kik/message. Based on the different variations I tested, I believe it expects a string ending with a dot and at least two letters.
The API does not check whether the webhook really exists. The variant 172.22.105.160.com was accepted, but as soon as it does match the regular expression \.[A,z]{2,}, it will be rejected.
Did anyone have similar experiences? I would like to use the IP as the webhook since it will be hosted on AWS. Do you have any suggestions to avoid this issue? Is it a bug in the API?
