Announcement: Facebook API deprecation updates
Facebook has announced the deprecation of certain APIs, effective March 14th, 2024. This change may impact the functionality of some features on our platform.
How It May Affect You:
At Khoros, we have proactively taken steps to minimize the impact of these deprecated APIs on our platform and ensure the integrity of your data. Despite our efforts, the following widgets will be directly affected:
Deprecated FB metric |
Khoros Marketing Analytics Widget |
page_engaged_users | Post Explorer, Post Gallery |
page_follows_city | Followers by City |
page_follows_country | Followers by Country |
page_follows_gender_age | Followers by Gender and Age |
page_follows_locale | Followers by Language |
post_impressions_fan_paid* | Post Explorer, Post Gallery |
The affected widgets will mark 'NA' (Not Available) post-March 14th. This indicates a lack of data reception from Facebook.
Additionally, Data Exports will record a value of "0" for these metrics, maintaining consistency with the rest of our platform's operations.
Data obtained before the deprecation will not be affected and will be visible in the widgets and the Data exports
