In Meta's developer tools, create a Page access token with pages_manage_posts and pages_read_engagement for your company page.
Enter them in OneATS
Find Meta Business Page Post in the channel registry, select Configure API, enter the Facebook Page ID and Page Access Token, and select Test Connection.

How it works day to day

- Each post links to the job on your careers page and records Facebook as the source.
- If Meta revokes or expires the token, posting stops until you save a new one.
