Posting YouTube Videos to Facebook but thumbnail isn't showing

Hey folks, 

 

I’m trying to post my YT videos to my FB page and have the video thumbnail also show up. Right now it just looks like the screengrab - otherwise, no image. 

 

If I feed the URL into the FB draft post as if I were posting normally, the thumbnail comes through just fine. But who wants to do things manually? :) 

 

Any tips on how to get this posting and looking like it was done manually?

Hi there @EarzUp,

Before we dive deeper, may I know if you’re using the “Create Page Post” action? If so, I suggest changing that to “Create Page Photo” for you to be able to use the thumbnail. Here are the fields of the “Create Page Photo” action:
