I got this message from app reviewer "Please refer to the permission decision." and i couldn't understand what it is.
This is our screencast , we're using ads_management permission to reach ad posts created by ads manager.
This requires manage_pages and ads_management permission actually but we already have manage_pages permission.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/page/ads_posts/
This same thing happened to me. I ended up messaging Facebook App Review Support. In my case, I did not add the permission to the request list when the user logged in with their Facebook account, plus what I was trying to achieve with my test users just plain didn't work when the reviewer tested it (most likely because of not including it in the request list inside of the Facebook login pop up window).
I would suggest using the Facebook App Review Support chat widget. They are a huge help!
Please have a discussion with Facebook App Review Support, they can explain the issue in the app.
You can find the messenger button to contact them in the bottom right part of the screen App Review > Requests, then click on view details and you'll be redirected to a page with a whole lot of explanation of the rejection. There you can see a messenger button in the bottom right corner, click and proceed.

...But this is what it needs to be reviewed for.
My Messenger app approval keeps being rejected with this:
pages_messaging
This item was not approved. Click Edit Details for information.
Facebook then states that the app does not respond when messaged - however, Facebook appears to be testing the app using a non-tester profile, which the system cannot respond to because that's what it needs approval to be able to do in the first place.
They also provide a screenshot of the messages sent, but these never show up in our page's Messenger inbox or in our database.
Facebook has also tested using tester profiles, but the app has always responded to them. The app also obviously responds to myself, the admin and my own test profiles.
Am I missing something? Why would Facebook review my app for public use, whilst using a non-tester profile?
In this conversation you can find the answer,
https://github.com/Microsoft/BotBuilder/issues/1465
It's not responding because your page has not yet been approved and not public, once they approve it any user can use the bot.
As they have said in the conversation to get your app approved you may have to add facebook app reviewer as a friend and review the app again.
I have facebook messenger application (it is bot using MS Bot Framework, although I don't think it is relevant). It has webhook subscribed to page events. It used to work fine until few days ago, when the webhook was unsubscribed from page and when I am trying to subscribe again it tells me:
"Insufficient Permission You do not have the necessary permission for
the specified Page to perform the requested action."
I am owner and admin on both the FB page and messenger app. I created similar page and messenger app and it works there, but I still need to use this old one. I tried subscribing to other pages which I own and admin, but with same result. I also tried it with other person who is admin.
I found other people experiencing same/similar message on FB, but not in this particular case. But I haven't found any solution.
Does anyone know what could be the problem? Or have anyone experienced this issue?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
You need to generate a token first. Under messager->Settings->Token Generation-> Select your page and you'll be prompted to give the permission. Grant all permission required, then you shall be able to subscribe or unsubscribe to pages you manage.
This process gives your application the token to validate if you have the moderator or higher rights to the page you want to subscribe to.
After spending 3 days on this. Here is the solution for this.
Go to your Facebook Profile - > Settings -> Apps
and Remove YOUR APP from there.
In Developer Dashboard Go to App Review -> Add Items
manage_pages
(This Permission Needed for Accessing page access tokens)
Add above permission for review - with any simple video of above error
Now go to Messanger-> Settings -> Token Generation
Select page from dropdown List
now it will open a popup (because you removed this app in 1st step) for app access permission , notice that now it will ask for manage pages permission
Grant those permission and create access tokens
Now try again subscribing Webhook to Pages
This Works for me.
You need to generate your page access token for this.
Go to your facebook Developer dashboard, and open the messenger tab. There, you will see this for token generation. Select your page and generate the token. Then use this token in your bot.
Page access token generation
I have a Facebook web application, that was just reviewed and approved by Facebook, so it's generally public. The application needs to be able to get the data about user accounts, so it needs either manage_pages or pages_show_list permission from user to work correctly. I don't need to manage user pages, only list them, so I want to request for pages_show_list login permission. However, when I go to the app settings and then "status & review" -> "items in review" and I click "add items to this submission" I see list of items, but there's no pages_show_list under "login permissions section".
How do I request for that item?
As an aside note: I know that Facebook added this permission recently, in Graph API v2.5, can that be a problem? My app used to make requests for the earlier versions of the API, but there's no general switch to choose what version to use (is it?), so I assume that Facebook doesn't limit this functionality for me because of that.
Okay, I got the answer from Facebook Support. It states that this permission doesn't require any additional review and you can just use it.
Since I created a new (Facebook) App last week, I get an OAuthException whenever I want to comment on a post.
"(OAuthException) (#200) You do not have sufficient to permissions to perform this action".
With the old App, my application works fine.
Now I found out that Facebook has changed the login policy recently. I also found the following remark on https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions/v2.0:
"If your app asks for more than than public_profile, email and user_friends it will require review by Facebook before your app can be used by people other than the app's developers".
So if I post with the same account with which I created the App, it should work, right? Only it doesn't...
Remark: if I use the new App with another Facebook-account, I have even less permissions (e.g. cannot access the account's pages). So I have more permissions if I use the same account, but still I cannot post!
I use Graph API via .NET Facebook-Client; my App is a native app (desktop app).
Could someone please tell me how to post with a new App? This is the main use-case of our application! Thank you very much!
Here is a screenshot of what I see instead of the login-screen when I use extended permission "publish_action" instead of "publish_stream"
You must be able to post with your own account since you are the admin of the application. - since only the admins/developers/testers will be able to test the app with the publishing functionality before it gets approved by facebook.
If you still are not able to, you must have not granted the permissions to the app. Things to check-
You are using publish_actions and not publish_stream
Check in your application settings whether or not you can see the publishing permission is granted for that app.
If not granted, go through the login process again and grant the publishing permission (may be by removing the app from settings and then authorizing again OR logout the app and then login again with publish_actions)
Problem solved - it was a stupid typo: I wrote publish_action instead of publish_actions (should be plural)! Thanks again to CBroe who pointed it out in this thread!
I am using the JavaScript SDK to login in the user on my website via Facebook, requiring the publish_actions permission. If I am getting it right, Open Graph stories published by using publish_actions are only visible for users who have their timeline enabled.
Is it possible to automatically activate the users' timeline after he logged in to my application and gave me the publish_actions permissions. I've seen authentication dialogs around the web where applications request the publish_actions permission and after granting the permission and logging in, the user automatically has the new timeline enabled.
I already searched a lot, but unfortunately I could not find anything in the developer documentation about how to do that.
How do I accomplish this?
If you request the publish_actions permission from the user and you have the action approved by Facebook, the message you talk about will appear in the login popup. Facebook automatically adds this message in as the features are only available with the new timeline profile. There isn't a setting you need to configure to add this message in.
What you describe is the intent of modifying user settings, and you can't do that.
