To resolve this, make sure the Facebook App has the pages_read_engagementpermission and Page Public Metadata access. If the app is in Development mode, the connected user must be an admin of both the App and the Page. If the app is in Live mode, these permissions must be approved via Meta App Review. After updating permissions, re-authenticate the Facebook credential in n8n.
I was running into the same problem. Is this the only way? For the App Review I need to supply extra information, create a screencast, etc.
That’s quite some work for ‘only’ creating a connection between n8n and Facebook
Hi @Alpex !
if this is just for your own use, you probably don’t need it at all. Is your Meta App in Development or Live mode? If it’s Development, just make sure your account is Admin of both the App and the Facebook Page, add the pages_read_engagement permission in the app settings, and re-authenticate in n8n. That should do it without any review. App Review only kicks in when you need access for users outside your own team. For personal/internal use, Development mode is enough.
Hi! Thanks for the reply.
It’s just for me indeed. No idea how, but after grinding through all settings for multiple hours, I managed to make it work. Had to do with permissions indeed, and also activating webhooks (I think that was the trick).
