# The “Create on Meta” or “Publish on Meta” request failed. What do I do?

Check the **error message** in the modal. Common causes: **no connection** selected or no WABA linked; **invalid or rejected flow** (Meta returns a message); **network or server error** (retry later); **vendor configuration** (Meta API URL or token) missing or wrong—contact support if your admin has not set up the WhatsApp vendor correctly.
