facebook api video parameters - facebook

I search in Facebook documentation about since and until parameter but I didn't find something
Here I wanted to try to do
https://graph.facebook.com/v2.9/1017313271664514/videos?fields=reactions.limit(0).summary(true),comments.limit(0).summary(true),type,link,full_picture,description,created_time,length&limit=100&access_token=XXXXX|XXXXXXX&until=1538050674&since=1537964274
it returns me an empty array ... seems until and since doesn't work
IS there a solution to limit ?

How to find posts of a facebook page within a certain period of time?

I want to import posts of a page between 07-12-2017 and 10-12-2017.
I have converted the dates to unix timestamps.
https://graph.facebook.com/v2.11/ekantipur?fields=posts.until(1512926148).limit(125)&access_token=MyAccessToken
works and so does
https://graph.facebook.com/v2.11/ekantipur?fields=posts.since(1512666948).limit(125)&access_token=MyAccessToken
But since and until together does not work. It only shows a single id.
Is there an another way to accomplish this task? If yes please reply. Thankyou in advance.
Update here is my updated Url with since and until. Its still not working.
123456/posts?since=07-12-2017&until=10-12-2017
Can you update the original post with your combined Since and Until?
I'm assuming that the SINCE is set to 7/17 and the UNTIL is 10/17, correct? It looks that way from the converted numbers, but I try not to assume it isn't something small like that :). No offense intended.
Looking at the graph API, I am using the page id of one I am the admin of and using since and until and it's coming back with posts between 07-12-2017 and 10-12-2017. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the limit in your urls. What if the limit statements are narrowing things down too much?
I'm just putting this into the graph API and getting the results I'm expecting: (no, my page id isn't 123456)
Granted, I'm not calling it in a url, Graph API is pretty forgiving.

How to search Facebook's "invitable_friends" results

I have a Facebook app, and I'd like to allow my users to invite their Facebook friends to my app. The proper endpoint is /me/invitable_friends which is working well. But towards the bottom of that doc page, they recommend implementing a "search box" to filter the results, yet they don't offer any example of how to do this. I've searched around and haven't found anything.
It doesn't appear as though you can pass additional params for filtering the results. Obviously I can filter the results after the fact, but that's not scalable since the API only returns ~20 users at a time. That limit is modifiable (I believe), though it's of course not wise to bump it too high.
So how can I build a search box interface if I can't pass the search text to the endpoint? I must be missing something.
Thanks in advance.
PS - I'm using the JS SDK.
You should probably file a bug.
Based on the documentation the default size is 1000 records (average Facebook friend list size is 300-400)
If you don't see the next parameter at the end of the result under paging then there are no more results.

How to get Likes Count with one graphi api call /home with all default fields for each post

The solution at https://stackoverflow.com/a/18351526/465974
makes use of fields keyword
Is there a way to get the the likes count via likes.summary(true) or some other way with graphi api call /me/home
but without restricting it to fields
seen in https://stackoverflow.com/a/18351526/337227 solution ?
It's not possible by design as fields need to be specified for summary info as mentioned in comments to the question above

Facebook API Multiple Search Type

Hi and thanks in advance.
I am currently working with the Facebook API, and I want to incorporate the search feature in my system, but the only problem is that I would like to do a search with one or more keywords for one or more type of object.
In other words not only search for posts but also, I would like to be able to search for posts, users and probably even events.
I have tried to put the parameter type like following type='post,user' but it doesn't return anything, the result is empty.
Is there a way to do it? The Facebook API manual doesn't say much about the search.

Facebook Graph API SEO Comments and Profanity Filter

I'm trying to integrate the Facebook comments left on our site in a way in which the content can be crawled by search engines and also for people (although I highly doubt there will be many) who don't have Javascript enabled on their browser.
Currently our Facebook comments are displayed via the use of the Facebook comment social plugin (using the <fb:comments href="MY_URL" num_posts="50" width="665"></fb:comments> tag). This ends up rendering an iFrame (which are mostly ignored by search engine crawlers) so the plan is to render this information and format it with basic HTML. To do this, the comments are pulled using the Graph API - this is then only be displayed to crawlers and people with Javascript disabled.
This all works nicely using the Graph API call (https://graph.facebook.com/comments/?ids=MY_URL), parsing the JSON result and displaying it on the page. The problem is that the <fb:comments> approach filters our results based on a blacklist we have set up on one of our Facebook Apps. The AppId with the relevant blacklist is stored on the page using metadata (<meta property="fb:app_id" content="APP_ID"/>) which the <fb:comments> control obviously must somehow use to filter the comments.
The problem is the Graph API method does not filter any results as I guess no blacklist (or App Id containing a blacklist) is specified. Does anyone know how to specify a Facebook App ID to the API call URL or of another way to not fetch commnents back that violate the terms of the blacklist?
On a side note, I know the debate about filtering content in comments rages on but it is a management decision to implement the blacklist, and one that I have no influence in changing - just incase anyone felt the need to explain the reasons why content filtering is or isn't a good idea!
Any thoughts on a solution?
Unfortunately there's no way to access a filtered list of comments using the API - it might be a reasonably request to have this in the API - you should file a wishlist item in Facebook's bug tracker
Otherwise, the only solution I can think of is to implement your own filter on your side when retrieving and displaying the comments from the API.
According to the Comments plugin documentation the filter on Facebook's side is implemented as a simple substring match, so it should be trivial to implement.
A fairly simple regular expression match should be able to check each comment against a relatively long list quickly.
(Unfortunately, the tradeoff here is that implementing a filter is easy, but you'd also need to write an interface so that whoever's updating the list of disallowed words can maintain the list for both the Facebook plugin, and your own filtering.)
Quote from docs:
The comment is checked via substring matching. This means if you blacklist the
word 'at', if the comment contains the sequence 'a' 't' anywhere it will be
marked with limited visibility; e.g. if the comment contained the words 'bat',
'hat', 'attend', etc it would be caught.
Pretty sure there is no current way of doing this from the graph API, the only thing I can suggest is taking the blacklist and build your own filter
