Livestreaming to Facebook GROUPS now requires Custom RTMP
Facebook has stopped live-streaming to Facebook Groups from any application as of today. This includes Zoom's built-in integration to livestream to Facebook. Note: You should still be able to livestream to other Facebook endpoints -- just not to Groups. Zoom did not make this change; it was made by Meta/Facebook. This change was made by the implementation of Version 19.0 of the Facebook Graph API, which was released January 23, 2024, and became effective today, April 22, 2024. To livestream to a Facebook Group, you must now use the Custom RTMP method of connecting a livestream. See this Zoom Support article for information on how to do this from Zoom: https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0064210 References in Zoom documentation to being able to livestream to Facebook no longer include the ability to stream to Facebook Groups from the Zoom-Facebook integration.

Unfortunately, this option requires a Licensed/paid account. Please note that I’m a Zoom Customer just like many of you. I don’t make the rules! If you’re a Basic user, your option to live-stream from Zoom to Facebook Groups at the moment is to upgrade to a Pro license. Consider streaming from OBS which is free and has the Custom RTMP capability built in without restriction. (info added here 25 April 2024)
