Is it possible to get a Facebook group to automatically show all posts from a Facebook page?

Even solutions with external apps, that only work when (the group owner/the page owner/somebody else) logs on are acceptable. This is just to save people the pain of having to post them manually.

You would need to do the following:

  • Authorize a group user with user_managed_groups (keep in mind that he must be a group admin) and publish_actions.
  • Create a cron job to read the Page feed or (better) use the Realtime API to get the latest Page posts and post them to the group with the group feed endpoint.

Btw, you need a User Token for this. Extended User tokens are valid for 2 months, so you would need to refresh the token manually every 2 months.

  • yes, there is no other (allowed) way to post to a facebook group, you MUST use the graph api - or post manually, of course.
