Sendspark can use public Facebook pages as dynamic-video backgrounds — specifically non-private personal profiles (URLs starting with /people/) and business pages (URLs with /p/ or a simple username). Private, Marketplace, Ads, Timeline, and Reels URLs won’t work. If a page is restricted, you’ll see a “content restricted” error; try another public page that matches a supported format.

  • Supported URL formats include /people/, /p/, or a plain username like /woodscoffee.
  • Doesn’t work: Marketplace listings, Ads/sponsored content, Timeline or personal feed links, Reels URLs, and any private or restricted content.

✅ Supported Facebook Pages Sendspark can successfully use backgrounds from public Facebook pages — specifically:
  • Non-private personal profile pages (usually start with /people/)

  • Facebook Marketplace listings
  • Ads pages or sponsored content
  • Timeline or personal feed links
  • Reels URLs
  • Any private or restricted content
These pages are either protected by Facebook’s privacy settings or require authentication, making them inaccessible for background rendering. ⚠️ Possible Errors You Might See: If the page you’re using is not public or has been removed, you may see one of these error messages:
  • “Page is content restricted. Please try a different page.”
→ This means the page is private or region-locked.Try using another Facebook link that matches the supported formats above. In short:
