Step 2

Click on Add key, put in a name to the integration so that it is easy for you to recognize. Now, connect to Facebook. 

Step 3

Select your Facebook account (the one which you want to pull data via integration)

Step 4

It will automatically enlist all pages integrated to your account in drop-down



Step 5

Select the page to integrate, and click on the Save button. There, you are now integrated with Facebook.

That was the first phase. For the second phase, you need to go back to your Stackby account.
