Instruction
Problem
To gain access to Pages info, users need to obtain an authentication access token on Graph API Explorer.
However, this code is only valid for 1 hour, cannot be used continuously.
Solution
This module helps you to convert an access code used in 1 hour to valid for 60 days.
You navigate to Social Marketing > Configuration > Social Media > Facebook, enter the access code in the User Exchange Token field, press Save.
You choose Convert Token to 60 days to convert the access token.
As such, the access token has been converted to 60 days.
