Improved Facebook Integration

We've enhanced our Facebook API integration with improved rate limiting configuration. These updates ensure better compliance with Facebook's platform requirements and provide a more reliable publishing experience.

Rate Limiting Improvements

  • Post Publishing: Increased delay between post requests from 10 to 12 seconds
  • Story Publishing: Extended delay between story requests from 12 to 15 seconds
  • Error Handling: Better handling of rate limit responses from Facebook
  • Queue Management: Improved scheduling of API requests to prevent throttling

Why These Changes Matter

Facebook has strict rate limiting policies to ensure fair usage of their API. By implementing more conservative rate limits, we're ensuring that your content publishing is more reliable and less likely to encounter temporary blocks or delays.

Impact on Publishing Workflows

While individual posts may take slightly longer to publish, the overall reliability of your publishing workflows will be significantly improved. You'll experience fewer failed publications and more consistent performance.
