## (Breaking Change) The mautrix-facebook bridge now requires a Postgres database
**Update from 2021-11-15**: SQLite support has been re-added to the mautrix-facebook bridge in [v0.3.2](https://github.com/mautrix/facebook/releases/tag/v0.3.2). You can ignore this changelog entry.
A new version of the [mautrix-facebook](https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-facebook) bridge has been released. It's a full rewrite of its backend and the bridge now requires Postgres. New versions of the bridge can no longer run on SQLite.
**TLDR**: if you're NOT using an [external Postgres server](docs/configuring-playbook-external-postgres.md) and have NOT forcefully kept the bridge on SQLite during [The big move to all-on-Postgres (potentially dangerous)](#the-big-move-to-all-on-postgres-potentially-dangerous), you will be automatically upgraded without manual intervention. All you need to do is send a `login` message to the Facebook bridge bot again.

By default, it's `matrix-corporal` (controllable by the `matrix_corporal_reconciliation_user_id_local_part` setting, see above).
No matter what Matrix user id you configure to run it with, make sure that:
- the Matrix Corporal user is created by [registering it](registering-users.md). Use a password you remember, as you'll need to log in from time to time to create or join rooms
- the Matrix Corporal user is created by [registering it](registering-users.md)**with administrator privileges**. Use a password you remember, as you'll need to log in from time to time to create or join rooms
- the Matrix Corporal user is joined and has Admin/Moderator-level access to any rooms you want it to manage
### Using a locally-stored static policy
If you'd like to use a [static policy file](https://github.com/devture/matrix-corporal/blob/master/docs/policy-providers.md#static-file-pull-style-policy-provider), you can use a configuration like this:
To learn more about what the policy configuration, see the matrix-corporal documentation on [policy](https://github.com/devture/matrix-corporal/blob/master/docs/policy.md).
Each time you update the policy in your `vars.yml` file, you'd need to re-run the playbook and restart matrix-corporal (`--tags=setup-all,start` or `--tags=setup-aux-files,setup-corporal,start`).
