Instant game EntryPointData always empty

Hi!

We're trying to use the EntryPointData Expression to get a payload sent from a bot message, but it's always empty. We tried reading the entrypointdata directly by calling FBInstant.getEntryPointData() with a Execute Javascript call and that works like it should.

Has anyone gotten the EntryPointData Expression to work?

Thanks!

The plugin calls FBInstant.getEntryPointData() on startup and returns that from the expression. I don't know why that wouldn't work, it seems to work for everything else. Maybe it's not set until later on? I didn't know that was possible. Try checking with Facebook about exactly when it's set, it might be an Instant Games bug.

Thanks! I think the getEntryPointData is only available after FBInstant.startGameAsync() resolves and not in FBInstant.initializeAsync(). But if that's where it's set in the plugin it might be something else.

Thanks!

This function should be called after FBInstant.startGameAsync() resolves.

I checked and both runtimes do only call that method after startGameAsync() has resolved.
