There are a few limitations when using Facebook Messenger in Zendesk.
Firstly, messages sent through Facebook Messenger have a 2000-character limit. If a message exceeds this limit, it won't be delivered. Additionally, when an agent responds to a direct message via Facebook Messenger, the response doesn't sync back to Zendesk. Agents must post messages directly in Zendesk to see their responses.
