Http request / post / API meta for developers

[Reem_Abu_Rajab]

What is the problem?

Request failed with status code 500
{“error”:{“message”:“An unknown error has occurred.”,“type”:“OAuthException”,“code”:1,“fbtrace_id”:“APKOb-9Vhd3-ZXIzGdUZpU0”}}

What have you tried so far?

webhook → for watch new massege at insta/face by API meta developrs

Hi

The 500 error means the request is reaching Meta, but something in the request isn’t valid.

From what I can see, there are two likely issues:

1. Endpoint / method

• The endpoint you’re calling may not accept POST, or it expects different parameters.
• Double-check the exact endpoint and HTTP method in Meta’s API docs.

2. Request body format

• Meta expects clean JSON only.
• Make sure the HTTP module is set to:
  • Body type: Raw
  • Content-Type: application/json
• Remove line breaks, emojis, or extra text from the body.

Also check that:

• The access token is valid and has the required permissions
• The token is sent via Authorization header or query param, not inside the JSON body (unless the API explicitly requires it)

When Meta can’t parse the request, it often returns a generic 500 error like this.

Hope this helps!

Regards, Tony

Welcome to the Make community!

This is likely because you did not include the proper authentication tokens in your request.

I highly recommend using the official integrations, Facebook, or Facebook Messenger, especially if you do not know how to set up the proper “Authentication type”.
