Thank you.
Hello safrasmusthafa,
The error (#100) The value must be a valid insights metric is returned by the Facebook (Meta) Graph API, not Microsoft Fabric.
Microsoft Fabric only runs the Python code and does not validate Facebook metrics. This error occurs when a requested metric is invalid for the object, deprecated, not supported in the current Graph API version, or when required Meta permissions are missing.
Because this is a Meta API validation issue, there are no Microsoft Docs for it. Metrics must be validated against Meta’s official documentation.
Meta documentation:
Insights metrics reference:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/insightsGraph API overview & versioning:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/overviewPermissions reference:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/permissions/reference
If the same request fails outside Fabric (e.g., local Python or Postman), it confirms the issue is on the Meta side, not Microsoft.
