Hi - I get errors when I try to use the Buffer module to add a Facebook post with an attached image.
It looks like I should use the option to “Attach media to the update”.
But this has contradictory instructions - see the 1st and 2nd statements below (copied from the documentation). The options I see for this are:
- Link: Enter the direct link to the image.
- Link to an image: Enter the URL of the image. The image will be uploaded to Facebook.
I want the image uploaded to Facebook as you would if you were posting directly.
However, if I select “Link to an image” I get an error when I run the scenario.
“The operation failed with an error. 400: Picture parameter passed without thumbnail parameter”
I’ve not seen anything in Facebook that also requires a Thumbnail to be added whenever you add an image to a post…
Has anyone figured out what this all means and to emulate a normal post with an image?
Thanks!
