You have the option to enable Facebook within your Event.  This will allow your guests to login to their own Facebook account and post their media via a Unique URL. Here you'll learn about how to enable Facebook and what Facebook posting options are available for you to configure.


Note: As of August 1st, 2018, 3rd party apps (including Photo Party Upload) will be unable to post media directly to Facebook. PPU will still be able to post a Unique URL to Facebook.


Note: Following the software updates of April 2022, Microsoft Webview2 will need to be installed on Windows computers that are sharing to Facebook through PBU and PPU (does not affect iPad apps). Many computers have this already, but if not, the installer can be downloaded here: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/consumer/
