Issue symptoms

My Facebook integration is not syncing or working correctly. Messages from Facebook don't create tickets. I received an email notification saying that my Facebook page was deauthorized. I then tried to reauthorize my Facebook account with Zendesk but I received an error. The browser says that the page is linked, but, when I return to Zendesk, it shows the below error message.

Page not found. The page you're looking for either doesn't exist or you don't have access to it. I'm unable to reauthorize my Facebook page.

Resolution steps

Important: If you are unable to connect your Facebook account to Zendesk for the first time, see this article: I can't add my Facebook account to Zendesk.

The solution to this issue may have different steps:

  • Reauthorize the Facebook page one more time
  • Confirm the Facebook integration is working
  • Next steps if the integration is still not working

Reauthorize the Facebook page one more time

If you tried to reauthorize your Facebook page and received a Page not found message, you may need to reauthorize the Facebook page once again but this time with the cache of your browser clear.

To fix this issue

  1. Sign out from your Zendesk account and from your Facebook account.

    Sign out from Zendesk

  2. Clear the cache and cookies of your browser.
  3. On the same browser, sign back into your Facebook account. Your credentials must belong to an admin of the Facebook page.
  4. Sign back into your Zendesk account as an admin.
  5. Reauthorize your Facebook page by following the instructions in this article: Reauthorizing the connection between Zendesk Support and your Facebook pages.

Next steps if the integration is still not working

If you already unlinked your Facebook page from your Zendesk account, then remove the Zendesk integration from your Facebook page.

To remove Zendesk from Facebook

  1. On Facebook, go to the business integrations page to see the list of integrations connected to your Facebook account.

  3. Open an incognito or private browsing window in your browser, and complete the re-authorization steps again as outlined in this article: Reauthorizing the connection between Zendesk Support and your Facebook pages.
    Note: If you do not select any Facebook pages that have previously been authorized, the Zendesk integration for those pages will stop working.
