3. Long-Lived Token Conversion: - Convert the short-lived token into a long-lived token (valid for ~60 days).
4. Page Token Retrieval: - Follow the provided instructions to retrieve Page Tokens for posting on managed Facebook Pages.
5. Customizable Scopes: - Edit the correctScopes array to include or exclude permissions as needed.
6. Optional Database Storage: - Extend the workflow to save tokens to a database instead of displaying them on-screen.
7. Step-by-Step Instructions: - Detailed guidance is provided via sticky notes for activating the app, configuring Webhook, and editing parameters like fbredirecturi, appid, and appsecret.
