Overview
The built-in Facebook Live integration on Core and Sharelink has been temporarily suspended by Facebook on December 9, 2020.
Teradek's developers are working with Facebook to determine the issue and restore access as quickly as possible.
If you try to add the Facebook integration to your Core or Sharelink account an "App Not Setup" error may appear, and errors will appear in Core or Sharelink when trying to stream.
Previously streamed content on Facebook will also show a recorded content will also show a message that reads "This content isn't available at the moment." message.
Until Facebook has restored access to the different integrations on Teradek products, customers will need to use the RTMPS streaming method described in this article to these Facebook destinations.

Core
- Timeline: restored on December 14, 2020
- Groups: restored on December 14, 2020
- Pages: restored on December 17, 2020
Sharelink
- Timeline : restored on December 14, 2020

- Pages : STILL PENDING, please use the manual RTMPS streaming method
NOTE: If you are receiving errors trying to stream to a Facebook asset which has already been restored, remove the API integration from the Facebook Account and then re-add it through Core or Sharelink.
Error message: "This content isn't available at the moment"
Live videos streamed prior to December which had shown the "content isn't available" error on Facebook should now be restored.
If you have live videos that are still showing as unavailable even though you can now stream to that Facebook asset, this will require investigation with Facebook.
Please contact support@teradek.com with links to the videos which are still showing as unavailable, along with links to newer videos which were successfully streamed through the API integration.
