The most common publishing errors are listed here, with advised steps that you can take for each error.
1- Facebook error: (#32) Page request limit reached (code 32, subcode null)
Possible Reason?
-This may occur when your Page reaches its API call limit.
Possible Solution:
-The rate limit is determined by Daily Active People (DAP) the more active users your page has, the higher the allowed threshold. Once this limit is exceeded, Instagram/Facebook temporarily locks the page’s API access. Unfortunately, the only way to resolve this is to wait for Facebook to automatically unlock it.
2- Facebook error: Fatal (code -1, subcode 2207001)
Possible Reason?
-This may occur when Instagram’s anti-spam mechanism is triggered. Unfortunately, Instagram does not provide specific details about what caused the error or how to prevent it. This lack of information is intentional, as it helps prevent users from attempting to bypass or manipulate their system.
Possible Solution:
-We suggest modifying the post before trying again this could include changing the text, updating the image (if one is attached), or making other small adjustments. Then, attempt to publish the revised version.
3- Facebook error: (#10) The user is not an Instagram Business (code 10, subcode null)
Possible Reason?
-This may occur when attempting to post to an Instagram Creator account. The Instagram API currently supports publishing only for Instagram Business accounts, and does not allow posting to Creator accounts.

Case 3: It is possible that you have 2-factor authentication activated for your Facebook profile or Facebook page, but not both. Please activate 2FA at both ends to resolve the error.

Facebook error: User access is restricted (code 25, subcode 2207050) ‘User is unavailable – The Instagram account is either inactive or restricted.’

Instagram has restricted the concerned account. This usually happens when the account violates Instagram’s Community Guidelines or Terms of Use. You will need to log in to the concerned account in the Instagram app and follow on-screen instructions to re-enable your account
Facebook error: Media ID is not available (code 9007, subcode 2207027) ‘Cannot Publish – The media is not ready for publishing, please wait for a moment’ errorUserTitle=Cannot Publish, errorUserMessage=The media is not ready for publishing, please wait for a moment.’
What to do?
Our systems are set up to automatically retry the posting process if an Instagram API error answer is received. The next attempt is usually successful. If your post is not published successfully after numerous attempts, please check your video/image file; it may not be qualified for publishing after all due to the wrong resolution, bitrate, aspect ratio, or other factors. All of the image and video specifications may be found here.
