Get my Facebook wall posts - facebook

Question

I'm using Hello.Js to get my Facebook wall posts. To doing so I have registered my demo app on developer.facebook.com (using a localhost url).
My hello.js setup is the following:
hello.init({
facebook: '<mykey>'
},
{
redirect_uri: 'redirect.html',
});
and this is the Facebook login:
var onFacebookError = function (e) {
$facebookEl.text(e.error.message);
};
// Facebook instance
var facebook = hello('facebook');
// Login
facebook.login().then(function (r) {
// Get Profile
facebook.api('me').then(function (p) {
$facebookEl.html('<span><img src="' + p.thumbnail + '" width=50 class="roundedAvatar" /><span style="margin-left: 15px;">Connected to Facebook as ' + p.name + '</span></span>');
}, onFacebookError);
}, onFacebookError);
The OAUth connection is working fine, but when I try to get my wall post, using:
// Facebook instance
var facebook = hello('facebook');
facebook.api('facebook:/me/share', function (r) {
var posts = [];
for (var i = 0; i < r.data.length; i++) {
var o = r.data[i];
posts.push({ social: 'facebook', text: o.text });
};
});
I get and empty r.data result.
What can the issue be? Do I have to enable other permissions on the Facebook app?

To get the user's timeline posts, you need to query the /feed edge with the user_posts permission.
I would recommend that you always try your calls in the Graph API Explorer first. This way you can be sure if this is an issue with the API or your implementation.
