06/20/2023, 3:41 PMYou can create config variables, which act like env vars in your bot's settings

06/20/2023, 3:44 PMthough it seems pretty straightforward

06/20/2023, 3:45 PMI'm pretty sure this is the bot ID

06/20/2023, 3:46 PMalso from the README:
Copy code
To figure out your bot id as a user, open any conversation and go to the developer console. You will see a MESSAGES: [...] log. Open the list and look for the first message sent by the bot. Grab its userId and paste it in the .env file. This will be used for sending messages and for differentiating the bot from other users.w

06/20/2023, 3:51 PMpretty sure you need to open the inbox console first to see the bot_id_as_user. Guihermy, the dev on that project, hangs around the server a lot. He can help, too

06/20/2023, 4:00 PMHey @worried-plumber-65401. You can see the bot id by starting the project, entering any conversation with messages and opening your browser's Developer Tools.
Look for the MESSAGES: [...] log, and find the first message sent by the bot, grab its userId and paste it in the .env file (not in the Botpress variables settings as you were trying before).
This is the id of the bot in the conversation, it's the same for all conversations, so you can use it to differentiate the bot from other users in the conv.
It's not mandatory no set the variable though, you can start the project without it. I will update the instructions to make that clearer!
