Quick question , does microsoft bot framework not support to listen to facebook page's public posts ? from the documentation it only supports FB messenger and FB Workplace , no mention of facebook page's public posts. Please throw some light if my understanding is wrong. if it is true , so the only way to read an FB page's public posts is through some custom code ( like a service ) or can i still leverage Bot Framework to do so ?
looked up official documentation
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/bot-service-channel-connect-facebook?view=azure-bot-service-3.0#connect-a-bot-to-facebook-workplace
There is some newly-added undocumented support for bots to listen for page posts and comments when the bot is mentioned. Please refer to the documentation for the Facebook Pages API: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/pages

Let's say I have a facebook page, if any post happens on that page the same content should also get posted automatically on my instagram as well. how can I achieve that, I have been looking at facebook graph api documentation for hours now but I am very confused, any guideline on which approach should I take?
Instagram does not offer any API to post to their platform. I am afraid there is no way.
Edit: There is an option, but it is limited to IG business accounts: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/guides/content-publishing
Facebook Graph API:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/ and Instagram Graph API: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/
In order to post anything on Instagram, you need a creator or a Business account. Also, you need to connect Facebook and Instagram in order to post anything. That is because posting on Instagram is done indirectly through Facebook pages. See here for more info on how it can be done: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/overview
I have a website that implements the facebook comments social plugin on various pages.
Inside of facebook I can go to
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/comments/<app id>
and see all the comments that come in under this app.
I'd like to understand how I can query the graph api for these comments. It isn't immediately obvious from going through the graph API docs.
i think this is what i want
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.8/object/comments/
but i'm not sure what the object-id should be in this context
I have studied Facebook API documentation and looked up other resources. It seems Facebook API does not provide a way to download stickers in a message thread. Is there any way I can retrieve stickers from Facebook threads?
If there is no way of downloading stickers available to developers, then my question is how is the Facebook messenger app able to do it?
As mentioned by WizKid (a FB employee) there is no public API available for getting stickers. The Facebook messenger app uses an internal API.
In Facebook messages, sticker link can be found in {message-id}/shares/link.
Link to API reference:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.10/message/shares
Stickers can now be pulled through the "attachment" field on a comment:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.8/comment
The graph will include attachment.url which can be used as an image source.
I looked around in the Facebook API documentation but couldn't find any information on boosting a page post. So I was wondering is it possible to boost a page's post from the API?
Refer to the Facebook Marketing API documentation. There are details about Page Promotion here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/unpublished-page-posts/v2.4#promote
I work for a tech blog and we are interested in having our stories published directly to Facebook when they are published on our site. How do I go about doing this?
For example, we publish article XXXX on our site, I want Facebook to automatically update our Facebook page with the title of that article, photo preview and link to the article. How can this be done?
There is a discussion on the WordPress website with more information.

A quick Google also revealed "Facebook Page Publish".
Personally for my blog, I have a plugin (Twitter Tools) that posts everything to Twitter, and my Twitter already posts everything to my Facebook.
