# Facebook Partnership Ads permissions (deferred)

`GET /v1/social-accounts/{id}/partnership-permissions`

Unavailable while PostLake defers Meta advertising features. Returns HTTP 501 with code meta_ads_deferred without contacting Meta. Reconnecting will not enable it. The former success schema is retained for client compatibility.

## Request

Authenticate with a bearer API key. Agents calling over MCP authorise with OAuth instead and never handle the key.

```bash
curl -X GET https://api.postlake.dev/v1/social-accounts/{id}/partnership-permissions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $POSTLAKE_API_KEY"
```

### Parameters

| Field | Type | Required | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | string | Yes | In the URL. |
| `direction` | string | No | Query string. |


## Response

Reserved success shape; unavailable while deferred (`200`).

| Field | Type | Required | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `items` | array of object | Yes |  |



### Example

```json
{
  "items": [
    {
      "id": "…",
      "partnerPageId": "…",
      "status": "…",
      "direction": "…",
      "createdAt": "…"
    }
  ]
}
```


## Calling this from an agent

Agents do not call REST. They call tools. Over the hosted MCP server this operation is `list_facebook_partnership_permissions`, and the agent authorises with OAuth so your API key is never pasted into a chat or seen by the model. You control what any one agent may do: which brands it may act for, which networks it may reach, how much a day, and whether it may spend credits bought up front.

## Errors

Every failure uses one shape: a stable `type`, a granular `code`, the field at fault in `param`, and a plain-language `fix`. See https://docs.postlake.dev/errors.md .

Check the result before retrying a write. Only operations that explicitly support idempotency can safely replay an `Idempotency-Key`.

## Common questions

**Can an AI agent do this without the REST API?**

Yes. Over MCP the same job is the list_facebook_partnership_permissions tool. The agent authorises with OAuth, so no API key is pasted into a chat or seen by the model, and the answer comes back in the same normalised shape.

**How often can I call this?**

Reads are rate limited per account and every response carries X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Reset. On a 429 the Retry-After header tells you how long to wait.

**What happens when it fails?**

You get one error shape: a stable type, a granular code you can branch on, the offending field in param, and a fix written so an agent can correct itself rather than stop. Full list on Errors and retries.
