Facebook API for Posting to Pages

The official Facebook API

Facebook Page posts are created with POST /{page-id}/feed on the Graph API, using a Page access token. The request takes a message, an optional link, and a published flag for immediate or unpublished posts. Publishing for someone else also means an app that Meta has reviewed and a token that stays valid.

What posting requires

1. Create a Meta app in the Meta developer dashboard.
2. Request pages_manage_posts, which depends on pages_read_engagement and pages_show_list.
3. Get a Page access token for a user who can perform the CREATE_CONTENT task on that Page.
4. Submit the permissions for App Review if people outside your app's roles will connect Pages they manage. Meta requires review for access to data you do not own or manage.
5. Pin a Graph API version and plan upgrades: each version works for at least two years after the next version ships, then calls fall back to the oldest usable version.

Cost: Meta's Pages API documentation lists no per-call fee for publishing. The cost is building and maintaining the app, review, token handling and version upgrades.

Common gotchas

• Personal profiles cannot be posted to by apps, and group posting is gone since the Groups API was deprecated in v19.0.
• The Page rate limit scales with engaged users, so a small or new Page gets a small budget.
• User tokens, Page tokens and their lifetimes are easy to mix up; a scheduled job fails when a token quietly expires.
• A single post cannot mix images and a video; Facebook rejects the combination.
• Every Graph API version eventually expires, so an integration needs a version upgrade at least every couple of years.
