Error: invalid_groups
When connecting a VKontakte community to Postmypost, you may encounter this error: "error":"invalid_groups","error_description":"only group admins have access to group tokens". This error prevents you from successfully connecting the community to your Postmypost account.
Possible reasons
This error occurs because you are not an administrator of the VKontakte community you are trying to connect. VKontakte's API security policy only allows community administrators to generate and use access tokens, which are required for Postmypost to publish content on your behalf.
What to do?
-
Get administrator rights — contact the current community administrator and ask them to make you an administrator. Only administrators have full access to the VKontakte API, which is necessary for all Postmypost functions to work correctly.
-
If you cannot get administrator rights, ask the group administrator to connect it:
- Send the administrator a link to your Postmypost project
- Ask them to log into their VKontakte account
- Follow the instructions to connect the required community
- Grant all necessary permissions during the connection process
