Troubleshooting
- Ensure the Facebook OAuth2 API credentials are valid and have the necessary permissions, including pages_messaging.
- Verify that the recipient has previously messaged the page; otherwise, messages cannot be sent to them.
- Check that the image URL is publicly accessible and starts with http:// or https://.
- Common error messages include invalid access token errors, missing permissions, invalid recipient ID, or inaccessible image URL. Reconnecting the Facebook account or verifying permissions usually resolves these issues.
