How to connect a Facebook page.

Step-by-step guide to connect your Facebook Page to Bibby. Only Facebook Pages (not personal profiles) can be connected.

Last updated: March 2025

Before you start

You need Admin access on the Facebook Page to connect it. Personal Facebook profiles cannot be connected—only Facebook Pages (business, brand, or community pages).

If you manage Pages through Business Manager, ensure you have access to the Page in Business Manager before connecting.

Bibby can only connect Facebook Pages where you have Admin access. If you don't see your Page after connecting, this is usually the reason. Verify your access before you start.

Important: Make sure you're switched to the correct Facebook Page or Business account before checking.

For direct Page access (Manage and view access)

Use this if you manage your Page directly. Go to your Page → Settings & privacy → Manage and view access. Look for "People with Facebook access"—you should see your name with full permissions (Page deletion, Permissions, Content, etc.).

Check Page access (facebook.com)

Page settings: Manage and view access. Look for "People with Facebook access"—you need to be listed here with full permissions.

For Business Manager / Business portfolio

Use this if your Page is in a Business portfolio. Go to Meta Business Suite → Settings → Users → People. Look for your email—you need "Full access" or "Admin" to connect Pages. "Partial access" may not include Page management.

No accounts found?

If you don't see any Pages after connecting, it usually means:

  • You don't have Admin access on the Page—verify using the links above
  • You connected a personal profile instead of a Page
  • Not all permissions were granted—try again and accept all requests
  • You manage Pages through Business Manager but have only Partial access

Click Try again in the modal to reconnect with updated permissions, or contact support if you need help.
