This guide will explain how to integrate your Facebook Pages with the Deskpro managed Facebook Messenger Channel
You should only link one Facebook Page to one Deskpro helpdesk. If you try to link a Facebook Page to more than one helpdesk, only the last helpdesk you link will receive messages from the account.

In Deskpro, navigate to Channels > Facebook > Pages.
If you haven't activated Messenger previously in your helpdesk, you need to activate the helpdesk and will be offered the option Managed by Deskpro.

Click on the button ‘Connect Page’ (top right hand side). A popup window will appear with a list of the available Meta features.
Select the features you want, then click ‘Next’

A new window will prompt you to login with your Facebook account. Please use the account with administrator credentials to manage your pages.
A list of available businesses linked to the Facebook Account will be displayed. Please select the option ‘Opt in to current businesses only’ and choose those businesses that manage the pages that you would like to install in Deskpro and click ‘Continue’.
