Connecting a Facebook page

Brolly captures your Facebook page's posts, comments and replies — including edits and deletions — from the moment you connect it.

Before you start

• You must have admin or editor access to the Facebook page, through your personal Facebook login.
• A brand-new page can take a little while before Facebook allows third-party tools to connect — see this troubleshooting guide if yours won't appear.

Connect the page

• Go to Settings → Accounts and click Add accounts.
• Select the group the page belongs to (most organisations use Organisation (default) — see groups).
• Choose Facebook pages, then sign in with the Facebook account that administers the page. Facebook walks you through granting Brolly read-only access.
• Pick the page(s) to connect and confirm.

Afterwards

The page appears under Settings → Accounts with status Active, and records start landing in your Feed. Facebook expires access tokens periodically — if the page's status later shows On hold, reconnecting takes a minute.
