AutoPost publishes product photos and videos to the Facebook Pages you manage, with copy built from your catalog and a link back to the product — on a schedule instead of on a whim.
The post type follows the media on your product, so you do not have to choose per post.
| Type | Built from | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Photo post | A single product image | Everyday catalog posts and announcements |
| Video post | A product video | Demonstrations and richer product stories |
| Product link in copy | The {PRODUCT_URL} variable | Sending Page visitors directly to the product |
These are the scopes the authorisation screen will show you. AutoPost asks for nothing beyond them.
| Scope | What it allows | Why AutoPost needs it |
|---|---|---|
pages_manage_posts | Create and manage posts on Pages you administer. | The core function: publishing the scheduled photo or video post to your Page. |
pages_read_engagement | Read a Page's own content and engagement data. | To confirm a post was created and to display its state back in the app. |
pages_show_list | List the Pages you manage. | So you can choose which Page an automation publishes to, instead of guessing. |
business_management | Read the Business Manager assets your account has access to. | To resolve Pages that are owned by a Business Manager rather than by a personal profile. |
| Account type | A Facebook Page you administer |
|---|---|
| Page selection | Chosen in the app; switchable at any time |
| Caption | Up to 2,200 characters |
| Media | Product images and video from your Shopify gallery |
| Business Manager | Supported, including Pages owned by a business |
Go to Accounts in the app and find the Facebook card.
Log in on the platform's own screen and approve the permissions listed above.
AutoPost lists the Pages you manage. Pick the one this store should publish to; you can change it later or refresh the list if you add a Page.
Tick Facebook in an automation's publishing targets, pick a template and a schedule.
Statuses and any platform errors appear on the Posts page — including the rarer policy-related rejections, explained in plain language.
You choose the Page per connection. If you manage several Pages for the same store, connect and target them through separate automations.
Many Pages are owned by a Business Manager rather than by a personal profile. Without that scope the app cannot resolve those Pages, and your Page would simply not appear in the list.
No. It reads the list of Pages you manage and the engagement state of its own posts. Inbox, ad accounts and audience data are not requested and not accessed.
The post is marked failed and the message the platform returned is shown. Facebook occasionally blocks posting temporarily; in that case the fix is to wait rather than to retry immediately.
AutoPost stores the encrypted authorisation tokens, the account identifier and the profile details shown in the app, plus the posts you scheduled and their results. Disconnect the account in AutoPost, or revoke access on the platform, and the tokens are deleted. See the Privacy Policy and data deletion pages.
