title: Facebook - How to send automated private messages to friends now (Oct. 2015)?
body: <p>I was researching this topic and I found that <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2574431/send-private-messages-to-friends">there was an answer</a> in StackOverflow in 2013. It uses <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/docs/sharing/reference/send-dialog" rel="nofollow noreferrer">"send dialog" api</a> of Facebook. </p>
  
  <p>However it couldn't send automated/pre-filled message on behalf of the user. Is it still true now as of Oct. 2015? </p>
