My task is to retrieve a page like list of another user than me. Can this be done by a Facebook API? I'm trying through Graph API, and get page likes lists of public institutions like a public agency. But if I want to get it from an individual person I fail, there's simply no page likes list in the API data I get.

There are a lot of question about similar topic, but none of them is actual and gives an answer.
I try to get public data from random facebook user via the facebook graph api.
First of all here is the documentation about getting user informations, and the endpoint looks like this:
GET /v2.9/{user-id} HTTP/1.1
Now I try this in the facebook graph explorer. But now I need the {user-id}
-Where or how do I get this user-id when I have the url to the users profile?
Lets say the user-id is given - to get the user-id I used findmyfbid.com
But the only response I get is the public name of the user and not more.
-So is it possible to get public user profile data, withouth having the users permission for your app? And if not, where is this written in the documentation?
I'm trying to get demographics information (mainly Location) regarding the people who like a particular post on a page owned by someone else.
For example, for a post on CocaCola's FB Page, I'm trying to get the reactions for a particular post by using this following string in the Graph API Explorer: 40796308305_10155753622733306/?fields=reactions{name,link,type}
Is there a way to also get location of the person who reacted to the post?
I'm using Graph API v2.6
is it possible to get all FB public posts from a location(city/country)? I don't want any of the user's info , I am solely interested in the posts.
One way of doing this by using the Public Feed API.
The Public Feed API provides a stream of user status updates and page status updates as they are posted to Facebook. But, the stream only includes basic data about the given post. However, you can user Graph API to request additional data, like place (country) for a particular post and sort them out based on their country.
NOTE: Access to the Public Feed API is restricted to a limited set of media publishers and usage requires prior approval by Facebook. You cannot use the API without the approval.
I'm experimenting with fetching a list of public likes,
eg graph.facebook.com/[my own id]/likes
gives a list of books, authors etc that I've "liked".
But if I use the ID for someone I'm not connected to, although I can see on their public page they have a long list of "likes" that I can just go and look at, the graph API returns an empty list.
Is there something I'm missing about graph API permissions and public likes?
Thanks for any information you can give!

Apps are not allowed to access just any data, only because it might be “public” when viewed through facebook.com.
For most data, you’ll have to request the according permissions from the current user of your app to access it via the API.
Also, its important to point out that 'favorites' and 'likes' are two different things. The 'favorites' are the list of apps and pages on the left when you are logged into the main facebook page. Those are different than pages you've 'liked'. Just an FYI.
I am new to Facebook's Graph API and FQL. I want small information about the same.
I want to get List of all pages liked by any particular user.

I searched on Google for same but got information about list of pages that user administrate that I don't want, I want full list which is like by them.
It's a connection property of the User object.
