Facebook Messenger Location in nodeJs

I have setup the facebook bot, and everything except the location sending. I am unable to receive the location of a user either through the quick_reply button, or the normal sending location through messenger. I am getting this as my output in my heroku logs:

"attachments":[{"title":"Attachment Unavailable","url":null,"type":"fallback","payload":null}]

But, the location is sent properly, and I can click on it and it opens up and shows the right location. How do I fix this?

facing the same issue @Soccergods. if u resend the same location as attachment to the bot, it works interestingly. – Sri
For me, it sometimes sends the right location. But 95% it is attachment unavailable. Did you figure out any work around? – Soccergods
Not yet ! Is there any forum for messenger developers to raise this ? – Sri
There is facebook developers community. I posted there, and will tell you if I get it fixed. – Soccergods
Raised it here - developers.facebook.com/bugs/2185120575045712 – Sri

This was just a recognised bug by Facebook itself, and they said that they resolved it and that the patch should be out ASAP(they said this on 22/12/2016). There was no error in code :)
