There have been recent changes in the API documentation from Facebook, where the Facebook albums flow needs to be re-worked.

We have gone ahead and deployed the latest changes, and applied new setup flow for EmbedAlbum.

The recent change will require you to connect the Facebook account, that manages the Facebook page, which you are trying to import the albums.

Below, you can find the steps on how you can continue to use the tool EmbedAlbum to import your Facebook albums and display them on your website:

1. On the left-hand side menu, click on 'Facebook albums' and in the top-right corner click 'Add new'

2. EmbedSocial will ask you to connect the Facebook account, that manages your Facebook pages, in order to pull your Facebook albums.

Once you connect your Facebook account, you will automatically get redirected to the page to 'create a widget' from your Facebook albums, or If you previously connected your Facebook account, you will get redirected automatically.

On this page, you can navigate through all the Facebook business pages that you manage, and select a album to create a widget.

In the screenshot below, you will see that I will use the 'eCommerce' Facebook page, and create a widget from the 'Profile pictures' album:


That's it!
