Important Notes
Facebook limits each album to 1,000 photos.
Once this limit is reached, Snappic will not be able to upload additional photos to that album.
You can create a new album directly from your Snappic dashboard to continue uploading without interruptions.

Facebook Album Upload Limit
Facebook’s current restriction allows a maximum of 1,000 photos per album.
If your event produces more than that (for example, long-term activations or large festivals), you’ll need to start a new album once the first one reaches its limit.
How to Manage Album Capacity
To prevent upload errors or missing photos:
Monitor your existing album’s photo count.
Once you approach 1,000 uploads, prepare to create a new album.
Update your Snappic settings to direct future uploads to the new album.
Creating a New Album on Facebook
Step 1: Open Your Event
Go to your event in the Snappic Dashboard.
Step 2: Navigate to Social Media Settings
Click on the Social Media tab.
Select the Facebook section.
Step 3: Create a New Album
Under the Facebook step, click Create New Album.
Give your album a clear name (e.g., “EventName – Part 2”).
Save your settings — Snappic will now upload future photos to the new album automatically.

Tips for Smooth Uploading
Keep albums organized: Use consistent naming conventions (e.g., “Event Name – Day 1 / Day 2”).
Check upload permissions: Ensure your connected Facebook page or profile allows Snappic uploads.
Monitor progress regularly: Large events can reach 1,000 uploads quickly.
Download backups: Always store a copy of your media locally in case of API issues.
Conclusion
Facebook limits each album to 1,000 photos. To continue uploading through Snappic, simply create a new album from the Facebook section under the Social Media tab. Regularly monitoring your album size helps ensure a seamless upload experience during long or large-scale events.
