Frequently asked questions

No. This integration only supports Facebook Pages. The Meta API restricts automated access to personal profiles to protect user privacy and prevent spam. To use Ceven, you must be an admin or have a designated role on a professional Page. Personal profiles do not have the same API endpoints as Pages, so the agent cannot post to your personal wall or read your private friends list. If you have a personal account, you can easily create a Page for your business or brand and connect that to Ceven to start automating your social workflows.
Ceven uses an intelligent queuing system to stay within the limits set by Meta. Facebook applies rate limits based on the number of calls made relative to the number of users who have authorized your app. If a workflow triggers a massive burst of requests, such as pulling thousands of comments, Ceven will automatically pace those requests and retry with exponential backoff. This prevents your access token from being temporarily throttled or revoked. You will see a pending status in your workflow logs if the agent is slowing down to respect the API constraints.
When you connect via OAuth, you will be asked to grant permissions such as pages show list, pages read engagement, and pages manage posts. These are standard Meta permissions required to read your feed and publish on your behalf. You can choose specifically which Pages from your account the agent can access. Ceven only requests the minimum scopes necessary to perform the actions you trigger in your workflows. You can review or revoke these permissions at any time through the Business Integrations section of your Facebook account settings.
Yes, but we recommend a human in the loop. You can build a workflow where Ceven monitors for new comments, uses an AI model to draft a response based on your brand voice, and then sends that draft to a Slack channel for approval. Once a team member clicks approve, the agent calls the Create Comment action to post the reply. This prevents the AI from hallucinating or posting inappropriate content while still removing the manual work of typing every single response to common customer questions.
Yes. The integration includes a specific action for video posts. You can provide a direct URL to a video file or a hosted asset, and the agent will handle the upload and captioning. Note that video processing on the Facebook side can take several minutes before the post actually appears live on the Page. Ceven will confirm when the API call is successful, but you may need to wait a short while for the video to finish rendering on the platform before it is visible to your followers.
The batch upload action uses the Meta Batch API to group multiple upload requests into a single HTTP call. This is significantly faster and more reliable than uploading photos one by one, which often triggers rate limits. You can send up to 50 photos in a single batch. The agent ensures that each photo is correctly associated with the target album or the Page wall. If one photo in the batch fails due to a file size or format issue, the agent will report the specific error while successfully posting the remaining images.
Ceven can pull public data from other Pages if that data is accessible via the public API. However, Meta has significantly tightened permissions around reading data from Pages you do not manage. For your own Page, you have full access to insights and messages. For other Pages, you are limited to basic public information. You cannot use Ceven to read private messages of other Pages or access their private insights. We recommend focusing your workflows on managing your own community and analyzing your own performance data.
Ceven uses OAuth 2.0 with refresh tokens to ensure your connection stays active. When the short lived access token expires, the agent automatically uses the refresh token to request a new one from Meta. You should not experience any downtime in your workflows. However, if you change your Facebook password or manually revoke the app permissions in your account settings, the refresh token becomes invalid. In that case, you will receive a notification from Ceven asking you to reconnect your account to restore the automation.
