I working on a project related to Facebook At Work. (Fb#W). I have admin access token and community id.
The app need to post statuses on behalf of user in Facebook at work. I tried to add impersonate_token to API call but the result return an error as follow:
"message": "(#200) The user hasn't authorized the application to perform this action"
The problem is user can not authenticate facebook at work account. Anyone know how to do this?
Thank you for reading

I have a website which should list all the events from my facebook group. So I created a facebook dev account and created an app.
When I tried to get the data with the graph API explorer it worked, but the access token expired after a few hours. So I had to get a never-expiring access token.
I created a sytem user at the facebook business manager. With the system user I got a never-expiring access token but I couldn't get the event data anymore. Everytime I tried it I got this response.
"Unsupported get request. Object with ID 'xxxxxxxxxxxxx' does not exist, cannot be loaded due to missing permissions, or does not support this operation. Please read the Graph API documentation at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api"
I have the following permissions as system user:
read_insights, read_audience_network_insights, manage_pages, pages_manage_cta, pages_show_list, publish_pages, business_management
Why did it fail? Are the permissions correct?
Thanks for your help.
I'm using the Facebook Live Video API for testing purpose.
I've created a Test User, associated with my Facebook App, with the following permissions: publish_actions, user_videos, publish_pages, manage_pages
Using graph API explorer, I can make a POST request on /{user_id}/live_videos, using the Test User ID and Access Token (got it from the My App -> Role -> Test Users).
But, if I create a page with the Test User (logged in with its email), POST resquest on /{page_id}/live_videos, with the test user page ID and Page Access Token with required permissions, I get an error:
"message": "(#100) No permission to perform current operation.",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 100,
I have the exact same issue when I'm not using a Test User, i.e. when I try to post live videos on a page id with an admin page token, while it works on its user id with user access token.
I've followed these documentation:
Live Video API
Why can't I POST live_videos on page ID with a page access token while it works on user ID with user access token?
Best regards.

POSTing a live_video with the page access token should work now. After chatting with the engineers at FB, they fixed the problem, so it wasn't an issue with just you.
I am not able to post Facebook using the custom-ui project of socialauth-android.
Here is the error log.

I am not able to find the issue. I am using the same API keys got from the Github source.
You are getting 403 Authentication Error that clearly means that your app is presently not authorized to publish on Facebook profile of the user.
There is some problem the way you are trying to use Facebook APIs. I would suggest you to the latest Facebook SDK for Android as some of the older methods may be deprecated. Let me tell you the approach for doing this right way. (I recently implemented latest Facebook SDK)
You need a permission
There are some specific permissions that you require to do some specific operations with Facebook SDK. For example, You need publish_actions permission if you want your app to post status on user's profile.
Check Out It says,
For example, the publish_actions permission lets you post to a person's Facebook Timeline.
How to get Permissions
You need to show the user a login button which will ask him to do login with his facebook account and notifying the user what your app may do with his Facebook profile. It will show the permissions. In your case you need to add a login button with publish_actions permission. Once the user accepts it, your app becomes authorized to post status.
Complete Tutorial is here for doing the login process of Facebook with permissions.
You will need to do the following,
LoginButton authButton = (LoginButton) view.findViewById(R.id.authButton);
authButton.setFragment(this);
authButton.setReadPermissions(Arrays.asList("user_likes", "user_status", "publish_actions"));
return view;
So you can see we are asking the user to give you the publish_actions permission. It is not mandatory to include user_likes or user_status permissions. You can remove them if you don't need them.
Next what after login
After the user logs in, you get an authentication token in your session with Facebook. So now you can use that to publish on user's profile.
How to post
Now there are many ways to publish posts or status on Facebook. The first one I would like to discuss is using the Graph API
Here is somewhat code, you can use to publish to facebook.
Session session = Session.getActiveSession();
new Request(
session,
"/me/feed",
null,
HttpMethod.POST,
new Request.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(Response response) {
}
}
).executeAsync();
NOTE
You do also need to create developer account with facebook and add your app to its dashboard, generate an app_id and mention the same in your AndroidManifest.xml file.
I went through this wonderfull tutorial on Using App Access token. According to this post it says that:
If the user has not provided the appropriate permissions to publish on the user’s behalf, you will receive an error message. For example, if the user has not provided the publish_stream permission, the following error will be returned:
{
"error": {
"message": "(#200) The user has not granted the application the permission to automatically publish feed stories",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 200
}
}
Now is there any other way to post to a users wall who has not authorized the app?
My query is this:
I have two logins for my app, one Login with Email and other FB Connection. So a user may login with email or facebook to my app. If he logs in with facebook there is no problem at all as i have his access token. If he login with email , then i don't have his user access token, so in this case i want to use the App Access token to fetch the users friends and then allow him to post to friends wall [friends who are not a member of our app / not authorized our app].
there is no way to post to a user wall who has not authorized the app.
one possible soln:
you have to link up the user login via the email and fbID
stored the access token when the user accesses your app via fbID
if the user login via the email, then get the access token from local storage and use it for the posting.
I got the following exception when i try to post a message on a friends wall using the REST API
The user hasn't authorized the
application to perform this action
here is my code.
$status=$facebook->api_client->stream_publish($message,null,null,$id,$user);
How to get authorization from a user to post a message on his wall? Or any work around to do this ?
During the authentication process, you need to request the publish_stream extended permission from the user before your application is allowed to post on behalf of that user.
Assuming this is a canvas application, this page will probably help you along.
