Creating

This API lets you create Facebook pages.

Permissions

  • A User access token with pages_manage_metadata and pages_show_list permissions.

  • The category_enum parameter with a Page Category.

  • Other requirements vary depending on the type of page you are creating but may require the following parameters: name, about, picture, and cover_photo.

Note: When setting the locale, at least one, city_id, location, or coordinates, is required. Caveats:

  • city_id and location can not be used together

  • city_id and coordinates can be used together however the coordinates must be within the city selected

  • location and coordinates can be used together however the coordinates must be within the location selected

Limitations

  • You can only create a Page as a test user or if your app has been allowlisted by your Facebook representative.

You can make a POST request to accounts edge from the following paths:

  • /{user_id}/accounts

When posting to this edge, no Graph object will be created.
