Currently, we support one type of Facebook sharing; the carousel. A carousel is a type of post existing of 'clickable cards' which individually leads to different URLs. This is a normal post on your profile, but it can be used as an advertisement as well. Your shared carousel may look like this:
The first image of your carrousel will be your base image, the next images are the individual assets and the image is your page's image. You can set the first and the last URL yourself, other URLs will lead to your asset's URL.
We are currently researching other ways to share on Facebook, please contact us if you have any suggestions or questions.
