Why Facebook Tickets Show 'Facebook User'

Learn why Facebook tickets show 'Facebook User' instead of names. Understand the impact of Facebook settings on ticket creation.

Why do Facebook tickets show 'Facebook User' instead of a name?

Tickets show 'Facebook User' when users disable app interaction. When Facebook users disable the option to interact with apps and websites in their settings, their personal data, like their name, isn't shared. This results in tickets showing 'Facebook User' instead of their actual name.

Additionally, if these users post on your linked Facebook page, those posts won't be converted to tickets in Zendesk due to Facebook API limitations. For more details, you can refer to theoriginal article.
