Facebook introduced more specific permissions as a replacement for Manage Pages. We have immediately reflected these changes in quintly. The required permissions are now as follows:

Facebook Basic Insights: [Read Insights](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/read_insights), [Pages Read Engagement](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/pages_read_engagement)  
Facebook Messages: [Pages Show List](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/pages_show_list), [Pages Manage Metadata](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/pages_manage_metadata), [Read Page Mailboxes](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/pages_messaging)  
Facebook Post Authors: [Pages Read Engagement](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/pages_read_engagement), [Read Insights](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/read_insights), [Business Management](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/business_management)  
Facebook Ad Campaigns: [Ads Read](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/ads_read)  
Instagram Basic Insights: [Pages Show List](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/pages_show_list), [Instagram Basic](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/instagram_basic), [Instagram Manage Insights](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference/instagram_manage_insights)

You can read more about this change from Facebook directly [here](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/changelog/version7.0#permissions). Facebook announced the more specific permissions would be deprecated in 2022, however, it happened sooner than we expected. You might have received a notification regarding invalid private statistics. We can confirm this has been resolved.

If you have any questions or concerns please don't hesitate to contact our Customer Success team at support@quintly.com or live chat.
