In your Hoofpick app you can choose to include Facebook posts from a Facebook page you manage. To do this, you will need to find your Facebook Page ID and get an Access Token.

Finding your Facebook Page ID

You can quickly find your Facebook ID using a site like this.


Getting an Access Token

In order to connect to the Facebook Graph API you need certain credentials. These credentials are in the form of an access token. You need a never-expiring user access token with sufficient permissions to retrieve your page’s Facebook feed.


Visit any of the following links to learn how to create such an access token:

Permissions

When asked to select permissions, make sure to request (at least) the following scopes:

read_insights

pages_manage_metadata

pages_read_user_content

pages_show_list

pages_manage_posts

business_management

groups_access_member_info

public_profile

Integrate with Hoofpick

Once you have generated a non-expiring access token and you've got your Facebook Page ID, go to your Hoofpick dashboard and navigate to Settings - Mobile App - Mobile App Settings.

Scroll down the page to the Social Menu section. Give this a label on your app's menu (e.g. Social News). Enter 'Facebook' as the Social Title and then copy and paste your Facebook Page ID into the Social ID field. Then copy and paste your Access Token in the Social Token field. Click on Update to save your changes.

These changes will automatically be updated in your app. You may need to close your app and reopen it after a few minutes.
