Videos → Stop Live Video
AI-generatedOverview
The "Stop Live Video" operation in the Videos resource of this Facebook Enhanced node allows users to stop an ongoing live video broadcast on a Facebook Page. This is useful for workflows that automate managing live streams, such as ending a live session programmatically after a certain event or time.
Practical scenarios include:
- Automatically stopping a live video after a scheduled duration.
- Integrating with other systems to end live broadcasts based on external triggers.
- Managing multiple live videos across different pages without manual intervention.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Live Video ID | The unique identifier of the live video to stop |
Output
The output JSON contains the response from the Facebook API related to stopping the live video. Typically, this will confirm whether the live video was successfully stopped or provide details about the operation's result.
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires a valid API key credential for the external N8N Tools API service used for validation.
- Requires Facebook API credentials (OAuth2 or API token) to authenticate requests to Facebook Graph API.
- The node uses the Facebook Graph API v23.0 endpoints internally.
- Proper permissions/scopes must be granted to the Facebook credentials to manage live videos.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid subscription or API key error: If the node throws an error indicating invalid subscription or API key, verify that the API key credential for the external validation service is correct and active.
- Permission errors from Facebook API: Ensure the Facebook credentials have the necessary permissions to manage live videos on the specified page.
- Live Video ID not found or invalid: Confirm that the provided Live Video ID exists and is currently live; otherwise, stopping it will fail.
- Network or API rate limits: Temporary failures might occur due to network issues or Facebook API rate limiting; retrying after some time may help.
