Custom Provider Parameters about embera HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @billtomczak
Yes I'm planning on updating the library this weekend with new providers and addressing this issue! Thanks for the report!

Nice! TY!

I'm pushing a new version that should work. I Just deleted the legacy endpoints for both facebook and Instagram. Can you guys test it out and tell if it solves the problem for you?

@hustlereq Facebook and Insta updated their oembed endpoint and behaviour. It now requires the use of an access_token parameter.

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/oembed
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram/oembed

How do you get the Access Token? You need to create an App on Insta/Facebook
How do you integrate the access token with Embera?

This should work now.

$config = [
 'instagram_access_token' => 'yourtokenforinsta',
 'facebook_access_token' => 'yourtokenforfacebook'
];

$embera = new Embera($config);

Plz let me know if it works!

Thanks Michael - I can confirm this is fixed

@mpratt @hustlereq -- One thing we've been running into with the new Facebook/Instagram oembed is some pretty severe rate limiting. One of our customers is constantly getting refused requests on a site with lots of these links on their site.

Not a lot we can do about it, I suppose

@mpratt @hustlereq -- I was mistakenly using the Client Token which has severe limits. Using the App Secret provides much more generous limits that are not a problem for my customers.

One thing I'm having rouble with is the oembed_page endpoint. Facebook is returning a permission denied error. So far haven't found the magic incantation to use this endpoint.
