1. Post was not published (or is Failed)
Reconnect the account:
Your connected Facebook Page or Group access token might have been expired. To fix that, reconnect your accounts.
Set up two factor authentication:
You should have two-factor authentication set up for your Facebook account. Facebook requires this extra security to help protect your assets if your Page is in Business Manager. In some cases, besides two-factor authentication, you also need to confirm your location to be able to publish posts. Learn more about two-factor authentication and location confirmation requirements as well as how to enable them.
Reset Hookle in your Facebook Business Integrations:
Sometimes just reconnecting accounts is not enough, and you need to remove Hookle from your Facebook Business Integrations (Facebook -> Settings -> Business Integrations -> Hookle -> Remove). Then go back to Hookle and (re)connect your Facebook account(s) again to Hookle.
Facebook links:
Facebook does not allow some facebook links (such as facebook.com, fb.watch, etc) to be published to their platform.
ERROR CODE: This post is identical to the last one you published. Try posting something different, or edit and retry this post.
You have published an identical post to the Facebook. Please try posting something different, or edit and retry the post. You can also delete the post on a native Facebook platform, and then try publish your failed post again.

Unfortunately, there is a bug at Facebook side that sometimes causes post to Facebook Groups fail. Facebook has dedicated an engineering team to fix this issue. Fixing the issue will probably take a while, and we'll let users know as soon as it has been fixed.

2. Cannot connect Facebook to Hookle (or change credentials)
The browser might remember credentials of your previously logged accounts. Thus, make sure you authenticate and reconnect accounts with right credentials if you connect multiple different Facebook accounts to Hookle.
If there is wrong credentials while you authenticate, open your browser to logout from your Facebook and then try authentication again in Hookle.
See instructions how to connect Facebook Page to Hookle.
3. Pages are not appearing when you are trying to select it
Try following if the Facebook Page you want to add is not appearing in Hookle:
- Ensure you have adequate permissions on the Page itself before you add it to Hookle. See what to do before you connect your Facebook Page to Hookle.
- Verify in your Facebook account's Business Integrations that Hookle has access to manage all of your Pages. Use this link to go to your account’s business integrations. If you see any lists of Facebook Pages that you own in the Hookle integration settings, make sure they are all selected, and then click save. If there are no lists, it means all your Pages are already selected.
4. Have you done changes to your Facebook settings?
Changes to settings might result in token expiration. To fix that, reconnect your accounts. Make sure you accept all the required permissions while reconnecting accounts to Hookle.
