How do I re-authenticate my Facebook Page on my Iconosquare account?

Follow the steps in this article in order to re-authenticate your Facebook page. Most of the time this is easy but here, you will also find troubleshooting steps and linked very useful articles for when you're having a bit more trouble with this.

Once you grant us access to your Facebook personal profile, Facebook gives us your "token" which allows us to connect and calculate your data. Sometimes this token expires due to different reasons:

A change of password.
A login from an unusual location.
A change in your Page Role on your Facebook Business Page
An unspecified reason relating to Facebook's security measures, for which we don't have information.

The reasons above can result in you being logged out from Facebook. When you're logged out, you need to re-authenticate your account so we can continue to calculate your data.

To re-authenticate your Facebook page, follow these steps:

Click on the red banner that appears at the top of your Iconosquare platform or click on your profile icon at the bottom left-hand corner of the platform followed by Social profiles.
Head to Go to Data access page.
Click on Re-authenticate next to your Facebook page.

If this doesn't work, it is possible that your role or permissions to the Facebook page have changed or we did not get enough permissions (the permissions were customized and we don't have access to all of your social profiles). Follow the next steps to get this sorted out!

Troubleshooting steps Reset the connection between your Facebook account and Iconosquare

Remove Iconosquare's permissions from Facebook by clicking on this link to access your Facebook Business Integrations (https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=business_tools). On this page, search or scroll to find Iconosquare.

Select Iconosquare, then click "Remove".
You will then need to confirm this - but do not click on the checkbox asking if you wish to "delete all posts, photos and videos", as shown below:

(Don't worry about the message that says 'This may delete your Iconosquare account and activity'. This is an automated message from Facebook that we are working to have changed - your account will NOT be deleted, and this process will NOT have any effect on your stats. This is simply to refresh the permissions we have for your account.)

Re-authorize permissions by going to the Social Profiles section on Iconosquare, clicking on the Go to Data Access page button, and then clicking on "Refresh access". This will redirect you to Facebook - please do not customize the permissions. (OR, if you’re seeing the new Facebook permissions, please select ALL the Instagram accounts/businesses/Facebook Pages, even those you currently don't want to monitor on your Iconosquare account).

Once you've done that, you'll be redirected back to Iconosquare - please try to re-authenticate your social profile again.

Check whether you still have the correct role or permissions for the Facebook page

Then click this link to be taken to the page access, otherwise go to Page setup > Page Access.
