Facebook

One Page per connection, with a first comment and up to five images.


Coming soon. The posting code below is built and works against a connected Page. Facebook is not offered to customers yet because it needs Meta's own approval of the developer app behind it. LinkedIn, X, Bluesky, Discord, Telegram and Mastodon are live today.

#Overview

A Facebook connection is one Page, never a personal profile: Meta has not published to a profile through its API in years. Facebook's own consent screen is the Page picker, so you choose there which Pages yeetpost may act for. The first one is connected, and the rest are listed under that connection in the dashboard for you to add with one click, the same way LinkedIn pages work.

Posting to Facebook is free. Each connection counts toward your connection ladder like any other account.

One image is a photo post with the text as its caption. Several images go up unpublished and are then attached to one post, which is how Facebook puts more than one picture on a post. Alt text reaches Facebook as the photo's own description.

The permalink is the Page post's permalink_url, or https://www.facebook.com/<post id> where Facebook does not answer with one.

#When a token dies

A long-lived Meta token lasts 60 days and renews itself: any authenticated use of a connection whose token is more than a week old renews it on the way through, and a connection nobody posts to is renewed by a weekly sweep on the API itself. So a connection does not go stale from sitting idle.

When Meta refuses the token anyway (the account removed the app, or the Page was taken away from it), the post comes back 403 reconnect_required. Reconnect the account in the dashboard. Meta throttling the account comes back 422 platform_rejected: nothing went out, and the same request works later.

#Why it says "coming soon"

Facebook, Instagram and Threads all sit behind one Meta developer app. The posting code above is built and works today against a connected Page; it is not offered to customers yet because that Meta app is waiting on Meta's own approval. Once it lands, Facebook shows up in the dashboard's connection picker with no other change to this page.
