Videos → Upload Video
AI-generatedOverview
The "Upload Video" operation of the Facebook Videos resource allows users to upload a video file to a specified Facebook Page. This node is useful for automating video content publishing workflows on Facebook Pages, such as marketing campaigns, product demos, tutorials, or event recordings.
Typical scenarios include:
- Automatically uploading promotional videos to a brand's Facebook Page.
- Scheduling video uploads as part of a social media content calendar.
- Integrating video uploads into broader automation workflows that manage Facebook Page content.
For example, a marketing team could use this node in an n8n workflow to upload newly created video ads directly to their Facebook Page without manual intervention.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Page ID | The unique identifier of the Facebook Page where the video will be uploaded. |
| Video Title | The title of the video being uploaded. |
| Video Description | A description providing details about the video content. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Facebook API after uploading the video. This typically includes metadata about the uploaded video such as its ID, status, and any other relevant information returned by Facebook.
No binary data output is indicated for this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires a valid API key credential for the external N8N Tools API service used for validation.
- Requires Facebook API credentials with permissions to manage videos on the target Facebook Page.
- The node uses the Facebook Graph API v23.0 (as seen in some user info requests).
- Proper configuration of OAuth2 or API key credentials within n8n is necessary for authentication.
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 N8N Tools API is correct and active.
- Permission errors from Facebook: Ensure the Facebook credentials have the required permissions to upload videos to the specified Page.
- Missing or incorrect Page ID: Confirm that the Page ID provided is correct and that the authenticated user has access to it.
- Network or API rate limits: Facebook API may throttle requests; handle retries or check usage limits if uploads fail intermittently.
