Your role must be displayed as an Admin or Page Owner here.  If you do have admin status on the Page and are still not able to connect your Page to Node.

Reset Facebook integration with Node

You can check in your Facebook Business Integration settings to see if Node is currently connected to your account.

If you're having issues, we would recommend removing Node from your integrations and signing-in through the app again.

Note:
Don't worry, doing this will not delete or change anything with your Node profile. It would just allow the app the reauthorize your account.

Do not check Also delete all posts, photos, and videos on Facebook that Statusbrew may have published on your behalf  or it may delete your previous and current Nodes.

Once that is complete, head back to the Node mobile app and login again to re-connect your Facebook and Instagram account to your Node profile.
