I have an app & user_status permission is obtained from facebook after its submitted for review. I can get the v2.2/me?fields=statuses data for the App's admin. No other fb accounts are able to get this data. When I login with facebook from my portal, the permissions requested are not shown to the users.
Is the issue related to FB API. I can use the obtained permissions only for the App's admin alone?
Is this issue related to not obtaining consent from the account while logging in from my portal. If yes, what is the method to get this done.
Anyone kindly help me regarding this.
It's all in the docs:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/review/login#do-you-need-review
...your app's developers will be able to see, and grant, any permission without requiring review by Facebook.
and
People who are listed in your app's Roles tab will have access to extended permissions without going through review (e.g. publish_actions or manage_pages). For example, if you use the Facebook Plugin for Wordpress to publish your blog posts to your Facebook Page or Profile, you do not need to submit for review so long as all your publishers are listed in your app's Roles tab.

I am trying to automate posting to my Facebook Business page. FB is forcing me to get an app review to approve the manage_pages and publish_pages permissions. I am not making an app for any other users, it is just for me.
Is there a way to avoid app review since I am not creating a public app?
When I try to use my user token (I am a page admin) in the API call it gives me the permission not available error. I can publish using the page token in Dev mode, (which makes all the posts hidden).
Sorry, this isn't a specific code question, If there is a better place to post this I will move it.
When I use my user token:
(#200) The permission(s) publish_actions are not available. It has been deprecated. If you want to provide a way for your app users to share content to Facebook, we encourage you to use our Sharing products instead.
When I use my page token:
(#200) The permission(s) manage_pages,publish_pages are not available. It could because either they are deprecated or need to be approved by App Review.
I have an app that programmatically make post on a configured Facebook Page.
My app obviously have both the manage_pages and publish_pages permissions approved and I'm using pages access token
Everything work well since now, but recently when I POST on page feed
https://graph.facebook.com/v3.1/234002440799692/feed
I get this error:
{"error": {
"message":"(#200) Requires either publish_to_groups permission and app being installed in the group, or manage_pages and publish_pages as an admin with sufficient administrative permission",
"type":"OAuthException",
"code":200,
"fbtrace_id":"HEVcI\/Tq3fW"
}}
I know that Facebook has deprecated publish_actions scope, so that it's not possible anymore to post programmatically on the personal feed, but I can't find out why the post on a page return this kind of error.
Some further infos:
posting with a developer account actually work
the user by which the page access token is obtained, created the page on Facebook (so I think it's an admin for the page)
i recently migrated from graph_api v2.12 to v.3.1
Any suggestion will be appreciated
Thanks
I figured it out what the problem with some pages is.
It seem that now, if the user grant the manage_pages and publish_pages permission, that will be valid only for already existing pages!
New pages haven't the permission granted by default.
The only way I can fix the problem was to remove my app from the user profile (Facebook Settings > Business Integrations > Select the app > Remove) and then prompt the user again with the Facebook OAuth permission dialog.
I don't know if there is a way to force the app removal programmatically, but I can't find out.
You can use the following URL:
https://graph.facebook.com/v7.0/234002440799692/feed?&access_token={access_token}
I'm trying to connect to a Facebook app that is requesting following permissions:
Access profile and posts from instagram business connected to your page
access insights for the instagram business connected to your page
** manage your pages**
show a list of pages you manage
access your page and app insights
The purpose of the app is to compile post and profile insight stats. If that is the case, why does it need "manage your pages" permission, which gives permission to manage/post/change my page settings?? Or is that legitimately needed just to analyze insights?
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.12/insights#reading
Reading page insights requires a page access token, and the only way to get a page access token is to have a page admin grant manage_pages permission to the app first.
manage_pages is the baiscpermission to grant an app access to anything related to a page.
So yes, that an app that analyzes your page insight data asks for this permission, is legit. Of course you will have to trust it, that it won’t abuse it for anything else.
It won’t be able to post in your page’s name though, that would require publish_pages permission as well.
I have one Facebook App that I only use to authenticate users on a website, get their names and profile pictures.
I also have a Facebook Page related to that same website.
My personal profile is administrator of both the App and the Page. Also the Page is registered as "App Page" in the advanced settings of the App.
I want to publish on the Page from a server using the Graph API and the credentials of the App without the need to ask for extended permissions such as manage_pages or publish_pages from my users because I don't need them (see point 1). I don't want to publish on their page, only on mine.
How do I make my App "administrator" of my Page so that no additional permission is required for the App to publish on behalve of the Page?
I know a quick and dirty solution would be to create another App that would be just used as a gateway between my profile and the Page (I would be the only user of the App, granting all the required permissions). But I would like to avoid having two different Apps.
If you want to publish "as Page" on your Page, you need to authorize your Facebook account with manage_pages and publish_pages and get a Page Token. That is the only way.
You can use an Extended Page Token and store it:

Well i want to allow Facebook login on my site. I have created the API and user's can login to the website. But for the first time a pop up comes to the users asking for Permission.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/concepts/login/login-architecture/
Can i just skip the users from this permission page and directly logs them in.
Thanks
Any person must accept the basic permission for getting their Facebook profile data for use in your website
