Clover13 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) Bumping this again as IG videos/reels seem to embed OK but FB reels do not? I get an embed error: The link could not be embedded because an error occurred on www.facebook.com. Edited December 18, 2022 by Clover13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clover13 Posted December 19, 2022 Author Share Posted December 19, 2022 Can you embed FB reels on IPS forum topics? Test link: https://www.facebook.com/reel/801821727579213 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and I'd imagine if Instagram embeds work via oEmbed Read, then wouldn't FB videos/reels as well? Or is there something more that needs to be done? There is only the FB app id and secret to configure in the IPS AdminCP, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clover13 Posted December 19, 2022 Author Share Posted December 19, 2022 FWIW, the FB GET for the link returns a 200. The IPS call to index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=editor&do=validateLink also returns a 200 with the following response JSON: {"preview":"","title":"","embed":"","errorMessage":"The link could not be embedded because an error occurred on www.facebook.com."} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clover13 Posted December 21, 2022 Author Share Posted December 21, 2022 @Marc Stridgen any chance you can try to embed a FB reel on a test forum and verify it works for you? At least that would rule out something in my FB app's config or the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaBeach_Guy Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Any progress on this, we can't get it to embed either and we're looking for a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.

Kyle Bass Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Was a solution to this ever discovered? I've double checked the app id and secret. The app is live in the meta dev console. I'm attempting to embed a NWS forecast post: https://www.facebook.com/NWS/posts/pfbid02ehZWEStRASncKQokdiFD4rRhSP4YnCMTp8q4FNZgX6uDz3B7uPhUwDcrrobwSz4Cl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
