Can Zoho Social post to Facebook groups?
No. As of October 2026, Zoho's help community says Facebook Groups were discontinued after Meta deprecated the API, and Zoho Social publishes to Pages. PilotPoster posts to every Facebook group you have joined from your own browser, with a unique version for each group.
How does Zoho Social handle Facebook groups?

- Gives each group its own wording with spintax or AI rewrite
- Adds your link as the first comment, so the post itself stays clean
- Plain-language logs show every group a post reached, and follow-ups reach only the groups that missed
- Group intelligence and outcome tracking show which groups bring clicks and customers
- Safety Autopilot paces campaigns, sets posting limits and pauses groups that keep failing
