How can I retrieve the results of these publishing attempts?

Hello, I would like to use Zapier to publish articles to Facebook Pages. How can I retrieve the results of these publishing attempts? My specific situation is as follows:

My website is updated with new articles daily. I want to automatically publish these articles—in batches—to multiple Facebook Pages whenever the site is updated. The purpose of batching is to avoid publishing too many posts to a single page at once, which could be flagged as suspicious or detrimental. However, I am aware that publishing articles to Facebook Pages is not a 100% guaranteed process; failures do occur occasionally—for instance, if a specific Page requires verification. Therefore, I need to be able to capture the error messages or failure notifications associated with these failed posts. I intend to develop the necessary functionality on my website to handle this, but I haven't been able to find any tutorials on Zapier explaining how to integrate this feedback mechanism directly into my site.

Hi and welcome to the Community ​@shares8055! 😁

You could potentially capture the failures by adding an error handler to the Facebook Pages steps in your Zap. If the Create Page Post (Facebook Pages) step fails, the “Error” path would run. And the “Error” path could have a Webhooks action which sends the error details back to your site. That way your site only gets notified when something fails, with the specific error info included.

Hope that helps. Let us know if you run into any issues setting that up!
