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 want to post on my own Facebook Page using Graph API.
For this, I have created an App.
When App is in Dev Mode, I am able to post on page using Page Access Token with proper permissions.
However, the problem here is, the post are not visible to public unless I make the App Live. The posts are only visible to Page Admins.
But as I make my App Live, I am getting below exception from FB APIs.
{
"error": {
"message": "(#200) If posting to a group, requires app being installed in the group, and \\\n either publish_to_groups permission with user token, or both pages_read_engagement \\\n and pages_manage_posts permission with page token; If posting to a page, \\\n requires both pages_read_engagement and pages_manage_posts as an admin with \\\n sufficient administrative permission",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 200,
"fbtrace_id": "abcdefgh"
}
}
I regenerated the Page Access token after I make my App Live but still above error is coming.
I checked some resources which says that I need to submit my App for review. But I don't want to go through that lengthy process.
So, Is there any otherway with which I can post on facebook page using API without putting my App for review process ? Will any other kind of token (i.e. other than page access token) work here ?
Please note, I want to make sure the posts I make to be visible by everyone and not just page admins.
I have an app-scoped user id (ASUID) for a Facebook user and I wish to obtain a link to that user's profile page.
A post on Facebook's Developer blog dated May 1, 2018 states that this link is accessible as of Graph API v3.0 through the link field on a user object. Access to this field requires the user_link permission be approved for the app and granted by the app user.
I have attempted to access this field with a user access token associated with my test app and I have verified the access token has the user_link permission granted via the Access Token Debugger. However, the link is not included in the response.
Request:
https://graph.facebook.com/v3.0/[ASUID]?fields=link&access_token=[ACCESS_TOKEN_W_USER_LINK_PERMISSION]
Response:
{ "id": "[ASUID]" }
Is there any indication as to why this is not working?
As documented, the user_link permission requires an App Review pass before it's available to live apps.
At time of writing this answer there is no way to get user profile page using Facebook API.
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 portal which has the following functionality to comment on FaceBook posts:
1. When a user chooses to a comment on a post, FB credentials of that specific user are requested.
2. When that user signs in with FB credentials my FB app asks for public profile permission.
3.When I use the access token of the same app in the graph explorer it does not return me the age_range of the users (irrespective of whether they are logged in or logged out of FB) who have approved/not approved my app.
4. I have checked for the public_profile permission even on the access token as well, using the debug feature in graph explorer but still I'm not getting the age_range.
Can anyone tell me step by step procedure to get the age_range of a user?
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.
