Workflow

Request: the code to send to the API

Send an API request to the following endpoint to update a post published on a Facebook page:

PUT /update/identities/<identity_token>/facebook/page/<page_id>/post/<post_id>.json

The <identity_token> is obtained whenever one of your users connects using Facebook. The <page_id> must be part of the pages that the identity is currently configured to be an administrator of and the <post_id> must be the identifier of a post published on that page.

In order to use this endpoint the permissions Manage Pages and Publish Pages must be enabled in the Facebook settings in your OneAll account and the user must have granted these permissions when he logged in with Facebook. You can use our Push API to publish a post on a Facebook page.
