facebook stream target error

I´m trying to use facebook stream target on automatic way, it´s not working. Searching for an answer, I noticed that now to create a live event you need to program it and then, if you want to, you have to start it manually on facebook. So you have to create RTMP stream target and use settings from facebook., Is that the reason it´s not working?

Hello @Lauro Dorneles,

The steps for streaming to Facebook from Wowza Streaming Engine are outlined in this article:

https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-stream-to-facebook-live-using-wowza-streaming-engine

It is hard to say why you are running into issues, as the PushPublishing to Facebook Stream Target should start automatically once a live stream is ingested by Wowza Engine.

We do suggest to update to the latest version of Wowza Engine to stay upto date with any API updates that Facebook may have introduced.

Regards,
