When I start a zoom meeting and click Livestream to FB and I click option to my profile timeline and public, FB is only showing it to me and another person. I have friends who don't have this issue on FB. So what am I doing wrong! Chat gpt says I can't do it to a profile only to a page.

    Hello ​@Janet Lloyd,

     

    When you livestream a Zoom meeting to Facebook, you can choose the privacy settings (such as Public, Friends, or Only Me) during the setup process. If your livestream is only visible to you and not to others, it's likely due to the privacy setting selected when you started the livestream.

    To fix this, make sure to:

    • Double-check the privacy option when you select your Facebook profile as the destination for the livestream.
    • Set the privacy to "Public" if you want everyone to see it, or "Friends" if you want only your friends to see it.

    If you already set it to "Public" but it's still only visible to you, try reviewing your Facebook privacy settings or permissions for third-party apps like Zoom. Sometimes, Facebook may override your selection due to account restrictions or app permissions.

    You can livestream to your Facebook profile, page, or group, but the visibility depends on the privacy setting you choose at the time of setup
