Things to review before you set-up your Facebook Integration: 

Location Limitation

Due to a limitation with Facebook, you can only connect a Facebook page to a maximum of one location. 

Remove all existing bots

Before getting started, you'll need to make sure you have removed all other bots from your page, such as ManyChat, before connecting GymLeads. Facebook doesn't allow two bots to manage the same page.

You can check to see which bots are connected by going to the settings page on your Facebook page and clicking on 'messenger platform. Make sure that no others are listed here (Page Inbox is setup on all pages by Facebook and isn't a problem). You'll need to have admin permissions on the page to remove any existing bots.
