## How do I publish a regular Facebook post (not a Reel or Story)?

Text-only posts and image posts publish as regular Facebook feed posts by default. **Videos always publish as Reels** -- Facebook no longer supports regular feed videos through the API. See [Facebook Reel requirements](/tips-and-tricks/social-platform-requirements.md#facebook) for size, duration, and aspect-ratio specs.

**Using the Blotato web app:** Leave the Reel/Story selector unselected for text or image posts. Videos automatically publish as Reels.

**Using the Blotato API or n8n/Make.com:** Omit `mediaType` for text or image posts. For videos, set `mediaType` to `"reel"`. Set `"story"` for Stories.
