Thank you for reaching out! To help diagnose why you receive an empty message in webchat, could you please share what the webhook payload looks like when it's sent to the webchat (for example, the JSON or message content you expect to receive)?

Hi Lucky Man, To test webhooks locally using the
vapi listen
command with a tunnel service like ngrok, follow these steps: 1. Set Up Tunnel: Start ngrok to create a public URL:
Copy code
bash
   ngrok http 4242
2. Start Listener: Run
vapi listen
to forward webhooks to your local server:
Copy code
bash
   vapi listen --forward-to localhost:3000/webhook
3. Configure Vapi Dashboard: Update your webhook URLs with the ngrok public URL, e.g.,
https://abc123.ngrok.io
. 4. Trigger Webhooks: Perform actions that would cause Vapi to send a webhook, and monitor the output in your terminal. Make sure to adjust the port if needed and check that your local server is accessible. For more details, you can refer to the [local webhook testing guide](https://docs.vapi.ai/cli/webhook).
