[Solved] How to schedule on Facebook groups after API changes

On January 23, Meta announced the release of its Facebook Graph API v19.0, which included the news that the company would be deprecating its existing Facebook Groups API in the next 90 days. Why is it SO relevant to developers and social media managers? This API allowed third-party software to schedule posts and monitor group content automatically.

Why is Facebook deprecating its existing Groups API?

Meta is simplifying their developer platforms and consolidating group functionality into their main Graph API. They likely want tighter control and security around group content as well.

What you cannot do after Facebook graph API v19? 

• You can't schedule posts to Facebook groups via API
• You can't automatically batch post across multiple Facebook groups
• You can't monitor Facebook groups at scale for keywords

What is the effect on Marketers and Social Media Managers? 

Marketers, agencies, and developers using the Groups API for post-scheduling and keyword tracking will lose crucial group marketing capabilities. The loss disrupts existing social media management workflows relied on by many businesses.
