Quick Answer

Open the public Facebook video or reel, then copy that exact link instead of a page, feed, or profile URL.

Copy the URL from the exact video surface rather than from a broader page view.

Those URLs usually do not point to a single downloadable asset.

If Snapvie recognizes the URL as a supported public Facebook video or reel, you chose the right link.
