I'm developing a page that contains multiple products on it as recommendations on a product page. Some of the recommendations are not present on the page unless the user takes an action, but they are preloaded in the DOM. Does the schema.org data on these products muddy the water for SEO or is there presence benign?

I have posted several Ads to facebook, Instagram which direct users to our website to submit a form. Is there any way to keep the footprint of where member saw the ad and clicked on it so in our CRM we can measure how many users came from facebook or other platform?
Yes - you can use UTM parameters at the end of your URLs to tell you how they got to your website.
For example, if you want to track how a specific campaign on FB ads is doing you could use the following:
https://www.example.com/landing-page?utm_campaign=monkey-football&utm_source=facebookads&utm_medium=video-views
The most common UTM parameters are the following:
utm_campaign - Name of the campaign (Optional)
utm_source - Source of the campaign (Facebook, email, Instagram)
utm_medium - Advertising format or medium (e.g. banner, news feed, insta-story)
To have this data captured in your CRM, you need to create fields that will capture this information. Each CRM is different so you'll need to research the best method of doing so. For example, Unbounce, which is not really a CRM platform but a lead generation/landing page platform, can create hidden form fields that will automatically record the UTM parameters in the URL, which then can be transferred to a CRM.

In facebook review page we just have Ratings, Comments field. How to include some more custom fields like category, product etc. Or can we get the feedback in our web page and post it to facebook?

There is no way to do that. Facebook specifies, which fields are available.

Not possible either.
(Nearly all platforms showing any kind of customer / user reviews have problems with fake reviews and spam. Allowing to feed reviews into the system from the outside would just increase the possibilities that malicious apps abuse this, and post fake reviews without the users being aware.)
I am developing a page on my site that pulls in analytics data from Facebook posts and pages, and have began with trying out the PHP SDK for Facebook.
The documentation seems to have improved in the last few months since the last time I used it, but as there is so much going on, I find it difficult to find the exact answer to my questions sometimes.
I want to get the analytics data for a number of posts and pages which are not necessarily related to each other... and also want to do this without logging in via Facebook. Is there some sort of simple API key I can use, which skips the logging in stage? I want a number of different peple to go to the site and see info from a number of different posts and pages.
Hope this makes sense.
You'll be able to get limited data from public pages and posts without logging in. Data includes number of likes, public page information, comment and likes on posts etc.
For example, if I look at the following Page https://graph.facebook.com/thetimberyard, I can see various stats like:
checkins
talking_about_count
were_here_count
likes
However, you can get better insights if you ask the user to login with read_insights permission. This permission will give you access to full insights for pages you own. Extra insights include (but not limited to):
Daily New Likes
Daily Unlikes
Daily Non/Logged-in Page Views
Weekly Non/Logged-in Page Views
Daily Internal Referrers
Daily External Referrers
Daily/Weekly/Monthly People Talking About This
Daily/Weekly/Monthly Reach Demographics, etc.
I saw Soundcloud and Tumblr on a user's FB profile, visible to their friends (me). Facebook developers: how is this possible?
This is called Collections which can contain app and activity-driven sections. Quoting from Facebook documentation
These sections let people express to the world the things that they care about the places they've been or the things they've done. Facebook provides default sections that people can optionally populate from common options (actions) generated by apps. As an example, Facebook provides a Books section, which is populated by the common actions like books.read and books.wants_to_read.
If you've created custom actions and objects you can create custom collections for your app. Those collections will be available in your app's section. These sections aren't shown on the timeline by default, but you can ask them to add your section to their Timeline.
Can somebody create (or link to) a complete list of updatable fields through the real-time updates functionality?
Thanks!
The documentation for Real-time Updates (which you refer in question) have list of those fields and connections (this is by far the most complete list available right now):
user – Get notifications about particular fields and connections corresponding to user nodes in the Graph API.
permissions – Get notifications when your users change the permissions they afford your applications. The available permissions are listed in the scope table in the permissions API reference.
page - Get notifications when pages that have installed your application as a Tab change their public properties. Note that the page topic is only used for subscribing to changes to public attributes of the page (like name, category, picture etc). This is the same information that is returned by the Graph API call
https://graph.facebook.com/<PAGE_ID>.
Note: Not all properties and connections of the user object can be subscribed to.
You can subscribe to all of the User object properties except verified.
Here are the list of User connections to which you can subscribe: feed, friends, activities, interests, music, books, movies, television, likes, checkins.
You can't subscribe to these User connections yet: home, tagged, posts, photos, albums, videos, groups, notes, events, inbox, outbox, updates, accounts.
The documentation is also states that plans to add more properties in future. So it's recommended to check it periodically...
