I'm trying to import fb-login function and there are some features which need to be inspected by facebook such as job status, education, etc. And they're saying that they requires privacy policy URL. So, I made a facebook page, which I will use as a landing page for my app, and wrote down the Privacy Policy to the Note. After that, I copied the note's url and pasted it to the Privacy Policy URL box. I tried to save and proceed, but than error message comes up, 'Facebook URL: Facebook URL cannot be crawled' So, my question is this: Is it unavailable to use facebook page to submit the privacy policy URL? This is my first time importing fb-login, so I just dunno what should I do and what shouldn't I do.

This should work ( Kind of a trick to fool FB ;) )

  1. Create a free privacy policy here.
  2. Upload your privacy policy (the one you just created) to your google drive account.
  3. Select the uploaded privacy policy file and click on Get Shareable link. Copy and paste the generated link into your facebook app's Privacy Policy URL input box and click on save changes.

Thanks ☺️
