Act on a Facebook Partnership Ads permission (deferred)

POST /v1/social-accounts/{id}/partnership-permissions

Unavailable while PostLake defers Meta advertising features. Returns HTTP 501 with code meta_ads_deferred. No request is sent to Meta and no partner is notified. 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.

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $POSTLAKE_API_KEY" \

Limits

Write operations are limited per account, and rate-limit responses include Retry-After. Do not automatically retry a write unless this operation explicitly documents idempotency.

Calling this from an agent

Agents do not call REST. They call tools. Over the hosted MCP server this operation is act_on_facebook_partnership_permission, and the agent authorises with OAuth so your API key is never pasted into a chat or seen by the model. The reply comes back in the same normalised shape you see above, which is what lets an agent reason about it without a per-network branch.

You control what any one agent may do with it: which brands it may act for, which networks it may reach, how much it may do in a day, and whether it may spend credits you bought up front. See the MCP server.

Errors

Every failure uses one shape: a stable type, a granular code, the field at fault in param, and a plain-language fix. An agent can act on it without a person reading the message. See Errors and retries.

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 act_on_facebook_partnership_permission 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.

Is it safe to retry this call?

Do not automatically repeat a write after a timeout unless that endpoint explicitly documents idempotency. First read the resulting state; a second request could repeat the action.

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.
