  • explain your goal with as much context as possible
    I am trying to share from Discord Server to Facebook Groups
    I have 1 discord server in which I am owner.
    I am trying to take any posts made in 2 different channels (youtube & news) and post to two different Facebook Groups (I am admin in both and installed Make app in both).

  • mention any steps you’ve tried so far
    Scenario 1: Discord Server > News Channel > Facebook Groups > Group A > Post
    Scenario 2: Discord Server > News Channel > Facebook Groups > Group B > Post
    Scenario 3: Discord Server > Youtube Channel > Facebook Groups > Group A > Post
    Scenario 4: Discord Server > Youtube Channel > Facebook Groups > Group B > Post

I even tried merging 3&4 together (with plan to merge 1&2 together)
Scenario 5: Discord Server > YT Channel > Router > Facebook Groups > Group A > Post
> Facebook Groups > Group B > Post

All scenarios are using the same Discord Server and admin account authentications. I can authenticate Discord in all scenarios without issue.
All scenarios are using the same Facebook admin account authentication with two different groups.
My problem is the Facebook authentication issue. First module creates new connection, selects my account and authenticates successfully. finds groups available(both A&B), allows me to select the desired group and to select posting and saves successfully.
Every other module setup makes me re-select the existing connection, successfully authenticates my user in the first stage(You’ve now linked Make to Facebook) but then errors out on the 2nd stage ( Error: Failed to extend permissions).
If I make a “new” connection doing the same thing as the first connection it allows me to go into 2nd stage without error.
Same problem in all 4 split stages or the combined stage.

When I finally get 1 to authenticate I get and error:
Please reduce the amount of data you’re asking for, then retry your request (1, )

Hello,

The error ‘Please reduce the amount of data you’re asking for, then retry your request (1, )’ is a known issue from Facebook and the same is mentioned in help document,

Please try deleting and reconfiguring the module, it may help.

For permission extension issue, please try creating a new connection.

Hope this points you in the right direction, Thanks.
