Notion + google drive + facebook post with image

[MAXImmo1]

Hello,

I can’t set up my notion calendar to publish with Facebook post image.

My image link is on Google Drive and Facebook page gives me an error every time. With a google photo image link in the notion it works.

Bonjour,
je n’arrive pas à mettre en place mon calendrier notion pour publier avec Facebook post image.
Mon lien image est sur Google Drive et Facebook page me met une erreur à chaque fois. avec un lien image photo google dans le notion cela fonctionne.

Problem :

Facebook cannot access images hosted on Google Drive, even if they’re set to “public.” That’s because Google Drive links:

• Are not direct file links (they don’t end with .jpg, .png, etc.).
• Often require authentication in the background.
• Return an HTML page, not the image itself.

That’s why your Facebook post fails when using a Google Drive image.

Can you show us the item that you send to the Facebook module ?
You need to get a image file item that end with .jpg or .png**, or the binary (depending of the social module).

Try (if necessary):

Use the HTTP module in Make to download the image from the link in Notion, and then upload that file to Facebook as part of the workflow.

Google Photos as an alternative:

Google Photos sometimes works, but it’s not reliable. It may generate direct links to images, but:

• The links can expire (not a big deal for socials).
• They sometimes requires some internal permissions (need to parameter).
• They do not always end with .jpg or .png, so Facebook might reject them.

You can try it with the module “Get a file item” → If it works, great

You can also try the “HTTP - Get a file” on public URL:

Instead of passing the Google URL directly to Facebook, do this:

1. In Make, use the HTTP > Get a file module.
2. Input the image URL of the hosted file on a public URL (You can use use a reliable image hosts that give direct, public URLs).
3. Use the resulting file as the image in the Facebook > Create a photo post module.
